The highly anticipated Genshin Impact version 4.4, expected to be one of the most significant updates in the 4.x series, is on the horizon. This upcoming version is set to introduce a plethora of fresh content, including the much-anticipated Lantern Rite event coinciding with the Chinese New Year. Building on the success of the previous Lantern Rite, which featured new skins, a complimentary four-star character, and exciting content, speculations suggest that Genshin Impact 4.4 may raise the bar even higher in terms of rewards. Below, we delve into essential details such as the release date, banners, characters, and more for Genshin Impact 4.4.
Release Date of Genshin Impact 4.4
The anticipated release date for Genshin Impact 4.4 is January 31, 2024, immediately following the conclusion of Phase 2 in version 4.3. Notably, each iteration of Genshin Impact spans 42 days, with the second phase of Genshin Impact 4.3 commencing on January 10 and concluding on January 31, 2024.
Livestream Date of Genshin Impact 4.4
The Genshin Impact 4.4 Livestream is set to take place on January 19, aligning with the usual practice of hosting Livestreams a few weeks prior to the release of a new version. Given the confirmed release date of January 31 for Genshin Impact 4.4, the Livestream on January 19 appears plausible.
Viewers can catch the Livestream initially on the official Genshin Impact Twitch channel, followed by a restream on the official YouTube channel approximately an hour later.
Character Banners of Genshin Impact 4.4
Unconfirmed reports suggest that the initial set of banners in Genshin Impact 4.4 may showcase Xianyun and Xiao, while the latter part could introduce Nahida and Yae Miko. It’s important to note that these details are speculative until an official announcement is made.
In Genshin Impact 4.4, two fresh characters are making their debut: Xianyun and Gaming. Xianyun, who takes on the human form of Cloud Retainer, is a five-star character proficient in Anemo and Catalyst use. We’ve already provided a comprehensive guide based on leaked information. On the other hand, Gaming is a four-star Pyro and Claymore user hailing from Liyue.
The initial segment of Genshin Impact 4.4 is expected to span from January 31 to February 21, showcasing Xianyun and Xiao. This speculation gains credibility as the first phase of Lantern Rite historically introduces a new character alongside Xiao, and considering that Lantern Rite is centered around Xiao, there’s a strong likelihood that this leak is accurate.
While leaks for Phase 2 banners may be less reliable given the considerable time gap until the release of version 4.4, earlier indications hinted at Albedo and Yae Miko being featured characters.
Weapon Banners of Genshin Impact 4.4
In the upcoming Genshin Impact 4.4, the first weapon banner during Phase 1 is anticipated to showcase Xianyun’s distinctive weapon, Crane’s Echoing Call, in addition to Xiao’s signature weapon, the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear.
As for Phase 2, if the leaked banners hold true, the featured weapons are expected to be Nahida’s signature weapon, “A Thousand Floating Dreams,” and Yae Miko’s signature weapon, “Kagura’s Verity.” The abundance of catalyst weapons in Genshin Impact 4.4 makes it notably the Catalyst-focused patch.
New Region in Genshin Impact 4.4: Chenyu Vale
Exciting news for Genshin Impact players Chenyu Vale, one of the highly anticipated regions, is finally making its debut in version 4.4. Nestled in the west of Liyue, towards Fontaine, this region is renowned for its tea production. Leaked information about Chenyu Vale provides details on its expansive terrain, featuring over 25 Teleport Waypoints, two statues of the Seven, and a brand-new Domain.
Furthermore, the region is expected to offer players fresh challenges and adventures with new world quests. For those aiming to summon Xianyun, preparing for the journey includes farming specific materials found in Chenyu Vale. Stay tuned for more discoveries and surprises as you explore this vast and intriguing addition to the Genshin Impact world.
Free Characters and Outfits in Genshin Impact 4.4
Certainly an interesting rumor! According to some leaks, Genshin Impact version 4.4 might introduce a feature allowing players to select a free four-star character skin. The rumored skins include those for Ganyu, Shenhe, and Xingqiu, and players may have the option to choose from all available four-star skins.
It’s crucial to note that this leak should be approached with skepticism and taken with a grain of salt. There seems to be no apparent justification for miHoYo to provide a complimentary skin, except in response to the criticism they faced from Genshin Impact players when offering a free five-star character, Dr. Ratio, in their alternate game, Honkai: Star Rail.
Regarding the descriptions of the latest outfits, each new attire adheres to a unified theme, featuring a blend of dark blue and black colors. The specific names of these outfits are as follows:
- Ganyu: Mysterious Jade Fragrance
- Xingqiu: Rain Transforms the Bamboo
- Shenhe: Cold Flower Secret Dew
Leaked images with a blurred preview showcase the appearance of all the outfits.
Additionally, a leaked splash art of Ganyu’s new attire reveals that it aligns with the theme introduced by the Ningguang and Keqing skins from the previous year.
Events in Genshin Impact 4.4
Considering the provided information, it’s evident that Genshin Impact 4.4 will feature numerous events. While the exact count remains unknown, here’s an initial list of leaked events. Additional details will be included as new information becomes accessible.
- Flagship 4.4 Lantern Rite event
- A Samachurl event
