(For Southeast Asia) Genshin Impact Version 4.3: Roses and Muskets

miHoYo has announced the next update for Genshin Impact – Version 4.4, “Vibrant Harriers Aloft in Spring Breeze.” It goes live on January 31st and features the return of the Lantern Rite in Liyue, with a new area, Chenyu Vale, becoming available. Check out the trailer below.

Genshin Impact’s next update, version 4.4, will drop on January 31st. As well as bringing back the game’s Lantern Festival with rewards including a new outfit, Vibrant Harriers Aloft in Spring Breeze will bring the usual additions of new characters, quests and a boss. There’ll also be a new area showcased with some shiny new visual tech, that you’ll be able to explore by transforming into a flying fish.

It's shaping up to be a Geo-centered update on Genshin Impact in the near future, as both Albedo and Itto have been missing for over ten patches since their last banner appearance. Waiting lists for limited characters are a favorite in the Genshin Impact community, as it helps players chart their gacha journey by being mindful of the last time a 5-Star character had their rerun. While there is always a chance that an Event Banner in Genshin Impact receives an early rerun, as is the case with Yoimiya, HoYoverse tends to prioritize characters who haven't had a reappearance in recent versions.

The latest Special Preview Program for Genshin Impact has revealed an ambitious slate of new content coming in Version 4.4, which also includes skins for Ganyu, Shenhe, and Xingqiu, as well as confirming the event banners for Xianyun, Nahida, Xiao, and Yae Miko. Chenyu Vale in Genshin Impact is finally making its debut, as the new zone will bridge the gap between Fontaine and Liyue, and connect the two nations together. In addition to exploring its breathtaking sights, Genshin Impact players will also be able to aid the local adeptus in healing the land, and even challenge a new world boss.

Hello, Travelers! The Genshin Impact dev team is excited to wish you all the best for the new year and announce our first version update of 2024! Version 4.4 Vibrant Harriers Aloft in Spring Breeze will be released on January 31 and brings us back to Liyue! You are invited to join Xianyun and Gaming to celebrate the new year in Teyvat, enjoy the festivities and obtain numerous rewards, including 10 + 3 Intertwined Fate, a free 4-star Liyue character, and a new outfit for Xingqiu.

A new Genshin Impact leak suggests version 4.8 will add a limited-time map that is similar to Fontaine in terms of design. Since its initial launch, Genshin Impact has introduced three temporary locations, with the last one being version 3.8's Veluriyam Mirage, which featured a variety of content, including puzzles and quests. These event-exclusive destinations not only contributed to the game's ongoing story but also offered many treasure chests. Following the conclusion of events, they were permanently removed from the map of Teyvat.

A recent Genshin Impact leak hints at the inclusion of birthday banners, revealing that the game's permanent wish will receive a significant update soon. Genshin Impact's banner system promotes a limited number of characters, meaning players can't find a chance to get many old units that aren't featured on the Wanderlust Invocation and event wishes. Though the Wanderlust Invocation offers non-event exclusive characters, this permanent pool still lacks the majority of five-star banners.

Genshin Impact has officially confirmed the exact date and time of the Special Program event for version 4.4. Before each new update arrives, developer HoYoverse hosts a livestream event that reveals most of the upcoming content, such as new characters, storylines, weapons, etc.

A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed more details about one of the upcoming characters named Chiori, who has already made multiple in-game appearances. The game keeps expanding the playable roster with each new update, with the Fontaine duo Navia and Chevreuse being the two most recent additions.

Raising Bennett’s Constellation level to C6 in can be a bit controversial. The game by HoYoverse offers a wide roster of characters that can be made stronger through Constellation upgrades – these can be obtained when players get the same character from gacha banners or events after they have already unlocked the playable hero. Despite being a free-to-play character, the Mondstadtian is versatile and can be used as a healer, an elemental enabler, and even a sub-DPS for some. His set of skills is very particular, and no other characters match him. Bennett's usefulness even tends to surpass many of his 5-star counterparts.

Recent Genshin Impact leaks show new places in Chenyu Vale, revealing some Local Legends players will encounter in the upcoming region. Genshin Impact's version 4.4 will reportedly expand the Liyue world into Chenyu Vale, a new area that hosts characters and NPCs. Leaks regarding the next destination have already revealed farming routes, showing where players can farm enhancement materials.

A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed more information about the characters that are expected to join the playable roster in the upcoming updates. Since the Fontaine update arrived, developer HoYoverse has been introducing at least two characters in each of the following updates, with Navia and Chevreuse being the most recent additions.
