Now, onto the exciting stuff.
Genshin Impact 4.4 expands the map and finally grants our wish for the mysterious Chenyu Vale. Nestled between Fontaine, Sumeru, and Liyue, this place has been shrouded in lore and intrigue.
But here’s the kicker – it’s going to be right above the Sumeru region, opening up possibilities for future map expansions. Oh, the anticipation!
While it’s not official, leaks have given us a sneak peek into this stunning location. Turquoise grass, a waterfall-themed city – it sounds like a feast for the eyes.
Brace yourselves for Qiaoying Village, Jademouth, Chenlong Pool, and Yilong Wharf. But that’s not all; whispers say that the Anemo Regisvine boss will debut here, aligning perfectly with the new 5-star release.
Meet the newcomers for Genshin Impact 4.4! First up is the 5-star character Cloud Retainer, lovingly called Xianyun.
She’s no stranger to us, hailing from the days of Liyue events. She’s an Anemo Catalyst user, much like Sucrose and Wanderer, and carries the weight of a legendary Adeptus. Brace yourselves; her unique kit is going to be a game-changer.
And then, there’s Gaming (pronounced Gah-ming). He’s a brand-new character, possibly affiliated with a transport security company in Liyue.
His rarity is still a mystery, but signs indicate he is a 4-star character. Expect to see Cloud Retainer in the spotlight during the first phase, while Gaming could take center stage as a featured 4-star later on.
With the Lantern Rite Festival in full swing, you can bet on other banners featuring Liyue’s finest, like Xiao, Ganyu, and Shenhe.
Xiao and Cloud Retainer seem like a match made in heaven, while Ganyu and Shenhe are getting snazzy new skins for their banner reruns. What more could you ask for?
So, gear up, fellow travelers, because Genshin Impact 4.4 is just around the corner, bringing with it a world of excitement and adventure. It’s time to dive back into the world of Teyvat and explore all the wonders it has to offer. Happy gaming, everyone!
