COD Mobile Season 8: Rin, Siren & Kestrel Draw Dates
Season 8 — Against All Fate launched on September 9, 2026, and brought one of the biggest collaborations in Call of Duty: Mobile history with Honkai Impact 3rd. A major part of that crossover is a set of three themed Legendary Operator Draws built around the Herrscher concept. These draws feature Rin Yoshida, Siren, and Kestrel, each paired with a Legendary weapon and a full suite of matching cosmetics.
All three draws arrive shortly after the season begins and run for an extended period, giving players several weeks to decide whether to pull. Here is the clear breakdown of the dates, contents, and what you need to know.
Official Draw Schedule
According to the official Season 8 information, the three Honkai-themed Draws release in quick succession starting just after launch:
- Herrscher of Thunder Draw (Rin Yoshida)
Starts: September 11, 2026 (UTC)
Runs through: November 9, 2026 (approximately) - Herrscher of Flamescion Draw (Siren)
Starts: September 12, 2026 (UTC)
Runs through: November 9, 2026 (approximately) - Herrscher of Reason Draw (Kestrel)
Starts: September 13, 2026 (UTC)
Runs through: November 9, 2026 (approximately)
The draws are staggered by one day each so they do not all hit the store at the exact same moment, but they overlap heavily and remain available for most of the season. Exact end dates can receive minor adjustments, so always double-check the in-game store timer once the draws go live.
What’s Inside Each Draw
Each of the three Draws follows the classic Legendary Operator + Legendary Weapon format and includes a range of supporting cosmetics.
1. Herrscher of Thunder – Rin Yoshida
- Operator: Rin Yoshida — Herrscher of Thunder
- Legendary Weapon: Katana — Domain of Sanction
- Theme: Thunder / purple energy, mechanical and elemental effects
- Additional items typically include calling cards, frames, emotes, parachutes, backpacks, and other matching cosmetics
Rin’s design emphasizes electric and thunder motifs with floating mechanical elements and strong visual effects.
2. Herrscher of Flamescion – Siren
- Operator: Siren — Herrscher of Flamescion
- Legendary Weapon: Nail Gun — Domain of Incandescence
- Theme: Fire / intense heat and flame effects
- Supporting cosmetics in the same fiery style
Siren’s draw leans into a more aggressive, high-temperature aesthetic that stands out clearly in both Multiplayer and Battle Royale.
3. Herrscher of Reason – Kestrel
- Operator: Kestrel — Herrscher of Reason
- Legendary Weapon: FHJ — Domain of Revelation
- Theme: Cooler, more controlled “reason” and high-tech look
- Matching set of cosmetics
Kestrel’s presentation is calmer and more tactical compared with the thunder and fire themes of the other two.
Collecting all three Legendary Operators unlocks additional collaboration rewards, including exclusive Scorestreak skins and an Operator Skill skin (EMP Systems — Snap Judgement, Gunship — Thunderous Destruction, and Gravity Vortex Gun — Project Bunny).
How These Draws Fit into Season 8
The three Herrscher Draws are only one part of the larger Honkai Impact 3rd collaboration. Season 8 also includes:
- A free Mythic Weapons Series Armory where players can earn one of three Mythic weapons (ISO Hemlock — Core of Thunder, Static-HV — Core of Fire, or BAL-27 — Core of Reason) through long-term challenges
- New Multiplayer mode content and a limited-time Battle Royale POI
- The regular Battle Pass and Challenge Pass that introduce the ISO Hemlock and Static-HV
- Various other events, playlists, and returning content
The Draws themselves are premium gacha-style offerings. They do not replace the free progression systems; they sit alongside them as high-end cosmetic and Legendary weapon options.
Practical Advice for Players
Timing
Because the three Draws launch on consecutive days (11th, 12th, and 13th September UTC), you have a short window at the beginning of the season to see all of them in the store before deciding where to spend. Many players wait a day or two after all three are live to compare animations, iron sights, and overall preference.
Budgeting
Legendary Operator Draws are among the more expensive pulls in COD Mobile. Decide in advance whether you want one specific character, two, or the full set for the completion rewards. Spreading CP across all three can become costly quickly.
Weapon preference
Look at the Legendary weapons as carefully as the Operators. The Katana, Nail Gun, and FHJ each play differently. If you already main a certain weapon type, that may influence which Draw feels most worthwhile.
Completion rewards
If your goal is the exclusive Scorestreak and Operator Skill skins that come from owning all three Operators, plan for the long haul. The Draws remain available for roughly two months, so there is no need to force everything in the first week.
Viewing the Draws In-Game
Once each Draw goes live you can preview the full reward board, watch the Operator and weapon inspections, and see the exact CP costs and guarantee thresholds in the store. Official channels and the in-game news tab also carry the most up-to-date timers and any small schedule adjustments.
Final Thoughts
In COD Mobile Season 8 the three Honkai Impact 3rd Legendary Draws arrive in rapid succession:
- Rin Yoshida — Herrscher of Thunder Draw begins September 11 UTC
- Siren — Herrscher of Flamescion Draw begins September 12 UTC
- Kestrel — Herrscher of Reason Draw begins September 13 UTC
All three are expected to remain available until around November 9. Each pairs a distinctive Legendary Operator with a Legendary weapon and a full set of themed cosmetics. Collecting the complete trio unlocks additional exclusive rewards.
Whether you chase one favorite character, focus on a preferred Legendary weapon, or aim for the full set, the staggered early-September launch gives you time to evaluate all three before committing COD Points. Check the in-game store after September 11 for the live timers and full reward details as Season 8 continues.
