Genshin Impact could be adding an Auto Chess game mode in the near future, inspired by the board game that Ningguang was developing in one of her Hangout routes. While Genshin Impact has toyed around with alternative gameplay modes through Flagship Events, the introduction of Genius Invokation TCG has given players a permanent way to take a break from the chores of completing daily commissions and instead play a game of cards in the tavern.
When Genshin Impact added Genius Invokation TCG in Version 3.3, its initial reception was notably mixed. Players wondered if Genius Invokation TCG would be able to sustain itself for longer than a few Versions, while others considered it a «useless» game mode due to its lack of renewable Primogem rewards and for being so far removed from Genshin Impact's standard gameplay. However, HoYoverse kept updating Genius Invokation TCG by constantly adding new cards and characters, and it became a much more polished experience than it was at launch.
However, according to Little Teyvat, it would seem that the developers are hoping to add another alternative gameplay mode to Genshin Impact in the near future. The information shared on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit hints that Ningguang's Liyue Millennium board game could become a permanent game mode inspired by Auto Chess. Given that the Fungus Mechanicus event in Genshin Impact Version 3.5 was notably structured to resemble an Auto Chess board, it could be that HoYoverse is already testing out the mechanics in advance.
It's important to note that an early leak such as this should be taken with a grain of salt. That being said, it should also be noted that Liyue Millennium has been trademarked by HoYoverse. If one were to speculate on when Liyue Millennium could make its introductory appearance, most signs point towards Version 5.4 via the Lantern Rite. The reasoning behind this is twofold: the rumored game mode has thematic ties to Liyue, while the festive nature of the Lantern Rite in Genshin Impact would make introducing Liyue Millennium a seamless affair.
After concluding their string of quality-of-life updates for Genshin Impact, it's clear that the developers have become much more open about expanding the game. Version 4.7 is scheduled to add a brand new Spiral Abyss mode known as the Imaginarium Theater, where players will be allowed to borrow one character from a friend's account to tackle a new set of rotating challenges. Though the Imaginarium Theater is expected to be a new type of endgame, the introduction of Liyue Millenium could end up being a neat counterweight.

A long-awaited gameplay feature in is finally arriving if new Version 4.7 leaks are to be believed.

The developer regularly adds new cards to Genius Invokation TCG alongside new ways to play, offering both new characters and game modes.

A huge mystery in may finally get answers, as hinted by an alleged piece of artwork featured in Version 4.7 leaks. The next patch is still weeks away, as Version 4.6 has just barely arrived, bringing forth a plethora of new playable content. This includes the playable version of Arlecchino in , a new area in Fontaine, extra story quests, and a lot more. Nevertheless, with Version 4.7’s tests starting to occur, a lot of its planned content has started to leak, offering glimpses at what players can expect in early June.
Some Genshin Impact players feel that HoYoverse missed the mark with the latest map expansion in Version 4.6, as Bayda Harbor and its surroundings are uncharacteristically bereft of any content or points of interest. While the star of Version 4.6 has been Arlecchino and her Story Quest, the new Genshin Impact update also added the last piece of Fontaine – its island town of Petrichor and the underwater ruins of Remuria below.
