The developers of anime action RPG Genshin Impact held the special program to bring players up to speed on all things coming in Version 3.8. The update will be rolling out on July 5th, bringing along new banners, limited-time area, events and skins. Check out the trailer above to get properly hyped!
“Welcome to the Veluriyam Mirage. I hope you can relax and enjoy some respite from your tiring journey.”
It’s as true as day that summer is the harbor for a momentary respite, an elysium for travelers to rest and recuperate. What could go wrong when one seizes the fleeting holidays and plays to their heart’s content?”
HERE’S WHAT AWAITS PLAYERS IN GENSHIN IMPACT VERSION 3.8:
After 84 years in HoYoverse’s basement, 5-star Cryo Claymore Eula Lawrence makes a comeback to get her vengeance. She servers as the captain of the Reconnaissance Company with the Knights of Favonius and the game’s unique Physical DPS. Players will also be able to spend their hard-earned primogems on adorable Klee (Pyro Catalyst), Sangonomiya Kokomi (Hydro Catalyst) and Wanderer (Anemo Catalyst). The Catalyst Impact strikes again!
- Version 3.8 Phase I – Eula (Cryo Claymore) & Klee (Pyro Catalyst); The limited Claymore Song of Broken Pines makes a comeback as well!
- Version 3.8 Phase II – Kokomi (Hydro Catalyst) & Wanderer (Anemo Catalyst). The weapon banner will feature their signature 5-star weapons: Everlasting Moonglow & Tulaytullah’s Remembrance.
- The rest of the 4-stars as well as the full content of the weapon banners are currently unknown, stay tuned!
Another highly special addition is the introduction of new skins for Klee and Kaeya! If you have wanted to dress up the Sparkle Knight and the Cavalry Captain, look no further.
Adorable Klee decided to follow in her mother Alice’s footsteps and dressed up as a little witch. Blossoming Starlight is an exquisite outfit that Klee wears only for the most important performances. The colors are brilliant, like a cake adorned with cream and crowned with scarlet candles. With it comes happiness and smiles that will fill your adventures.
Kaeya’s outfit Sailwind Shadow is from his role as the “Dagger Bandit” in the play. Though flamboyant and designed to be as eye-catching as possible, it isn’t difficult to put on, though it does take some time to get all the accessories and daggers sorted. The pirate grandpa would be proud.
