NetEaseDestiny Rising has a wide range of characters that can be earned by spending Bon Voyage Charms to have a chance of pulling them from featured and permanent banner events.
Similar to other gacha games like Genshin Impact, some of these banners are only available for a limited time, rotating in and out of availability on a schedule.
While your chances of pulling these characters at base odds are low, Destiny Rising features a built-in bad luck mitigation mechanic, guaranteeing a character pull after a certain number of attempts.
As of writing, only three characters are locked behind a limited-time banner, with several others available in a permanent banner option. Here’s everything you need to know about the current rotation.
What is the current Destiny Rising banner?
Two banners are available in Destiny Rising. The permanent “Rising Lights” continues to feature the base roster, while the new limited-time draw, “The Sun’s Shadow,” adds Mythic Estela and Legendary Umeko.
The Sun’s Shadow
Estela
Estela is the big headliner of Season 1. She’s a Mythic Solar Lightbearer built for offense, wielding Pulse Rifles and Machine Guns. You’ll find her on the new limited-time banner, “The Sun’s Shadow,” which kicked off on September 11 and runs for about four weeks.
Umeko
Sharing the spotlight is Umeko, a Legendary Void support who fights with a Scout Rifle and Sniper Rifle. She joins Estela on “The Sun’s Shadow” banner and, being a Legendary, should be easier to pull.
The Rising Lights
The Rising Lights is a permanent banner that also features built-in bad luck mitigation. A Mythic-rarity character (Gwynn excluded) is guaranteed after reaching a certain number of pulls.
See the table below for all of the possible rewards from The Rising Lights and their odds of dropping.

What does the current banner end?
The Sun’s Shadow banner began on September 11 and runs for 28 days, ending October 9, 2025.
The previous banner, Memento Mori, ended on September 11, 2025.
The Rising Lights banner is permanent, though NetEase may adjust the roster in future rotations. The first limited-time rotation has already taken place, with Memento Mori replaced by The Sun’s Shadow on September 11.
Next banners
NetEase hasn’t confirmed what comes after The Sun’s Shadow, but future seasonal rotations will likely follow a similar format, with a Mythic headliner and supporting Legendaries.
