Genshin Impact Ignites With Major 5.5 Update Arriving March 26th

As chilly temperatures persist across many regions, Genshin Impact prepares to deliver some virtual warmth with its explosive Version 5.5 update titled "Day of the Flame's Return". This highly anticipated content drop introduces fiery new landscapes and challenges within the volcanic region of Natlan.

Explore Tollan: Natlan's Volcanic Heart

The update's centerpiece is the magnificent Great Volcano of Tollan, finally accessible after its mysterious presence throughout Natlan's story. Players can explore the ancient Sacred City of Tollan hidden within this fiery landscape, uncovering secrets about the mythical Flamelord's Blessing deep beneath its molten surface.

New Tribal Encounters Emerging

Version 5.5 completes Natlan's tribal roster with the debut of the formidable Tribe of Plenty. Adventurers will also encounter the mighty Tatankasaurus, a new Saurian species powerful enough to pulverize massive boulders with its sheer bulk.

Meet Your Fiery New Allies

Traversing these dangerous volcanic regions won't be a solo endeavor. The update introduces two electrifying new characters:

  • Varessa - A five-star Electro Catalyst user delivering devastating elemental attacks
  • Iansan - A versatile four-star Electro Polearm wielder who boosts team damage while supporting allies

Glory Blooms in New Challenges

The update launches alongside exciting new content including the "Tournament of Glory in Bloom" seasonal event, fresh Event Wishes, and more adventures beginning March 26th.
