Genshin Impact Reveals Release Date and Time for 4.6 Special Program

When are we finally going to get a release date for the Silent Hill 2 remake? The game is widely expected to launch sometime in 2024, but PR from Konami has been spotty at best. We got a somewhat-questionable trailer back in February (that even developer Bloober Team criticized as not representative of the final game) and as we head deeper into the year, there’s still a lot to be nailed down. The game’s been rated by the ESRB and there are rumors it may pop up at a PlayStation Showcase next month, but Konami themselves have remained silent.

A new leak from Genshin Impact is teasing a major change coming to the rotation schedule for the Spiral Abyss, with the endgame dungeon now only changing once a month. The massively popular RPG from developer HoYoverse offers players a wide array of things to do within its sprawling open world.

However, Genshin Impact's endgame has often been a point of criticism.

These combat-oriented modes set Trailblazers against enemies they have encountered before.

Genshin Impact has unveiled the Event Banners for the first half of Version 4.6, and it comes with a surprising change to its 4-Star character lineup. While 5-Star characters in Genshin Impact tend to be the biggest factor in determining an Event Banner’s popularity, certain 4-Star characters are much more valuable for starter accounts than others. More often than not, these happen to be 4-Star characters released near the launch of the game, such as Fischl or Xingqiu, whereas the newer additions tend to fill a certain niche.

One enterprising Stardew Valley player may have found the most profitable method of gathering flower honey that the game allows.

Following the debut of an animated short featuring Arlecchino, Genshin Impact has released a character teaser to herald the arrival of the third playable Fatui Harbinger to the Event Banners. Wanderer and Tartaglia will be joined by Arlecchino in Version 4.6, who will also launch with a Story Quest and Trounce Domain, in what many players consider to be one of the biggest updates in Genshin Impact history.
