If Honkai: Star Rail shows “Timeout, resource download failed, please try again,” switch to another network and retry. HoYoverse attributes that exact error to an unstable network. If changing connections does not help, work through the checks below in order; none is a guaranteed fix.

Fix the download in this order

  1. Switch to another network

    Try a different Wi-Fi network, or switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, then restart the download. HoYoverse identifies an unstable network as the cause of the exact “Timeout, resource download failed, please try again” message. The result can vary by connection; no network type is guaranteed to work. See HoYoverse’s download and installation troubleshooting guidance.

The repair, restart, and reinstall steps are part of HoYoverse’s general download and update troubleshooting advice; they are not confirmed cures for an unstable-network error.

If the download reaches 100% but appears stuck

A download at 100% may still be verifying game-resource integrity. Wait for verification to finish. If it stays stuck for an extended time, contact HoYoverse Customer Support rather than assuming the download has failed.

PC: Consider the drive only if HoYoPlay downloads are slow or failing

HoYoverse recommends changing network environments and restarting the download for slow or failing HoYoPlay downloads. If the game is installed on a mechanical hard drive (HDD), installing it on a solid-state drive (SSD) is an optional performance consideration. HoYoverse does not provide benchmark figures or say that an SSD will fix the specific timeout error, which it attributes to an unstable network. Read its HoYoPlay download-speed guidance.

Contact support with the details they need

If the issue persists, send Customer Support your device model and operating-system version, a screenshot or screen recording of the error, and the time and region where it occurred. Those details help identify what happened without guessing at the cause.
