Genshin Impact version 5.0 – the next major update set to bring a new region to the game – will release worldwide on August 29. In addition, new characters as well as an archon quest, events, and slick new traversal abilities are coming too for players who jump into the new content.
Genshin Impact players will be able to meet and interact with various tribes that reside in the new nation of Natlan, and proceed the overarching narrative of HoYoverse’s biggest game. Version 5.0, like all major version changes before it, will be the kick-off point for months of additional updates fleshing out the region and the stories of the new characters introduced with it.
This new update is also launching with three new characters, all available through in-game banners. These include the five star Mualani, four star Kachina, and five star Kinich. These characters will be spread across two phases, so hopefully you’ve been saving up your rolls for these three – they’ll be thrown back into the character vault for a while after their banner phases out.
