Genshin Impact's highly anticipated 4.8 update is just around the corner, bringing a wave of summer-themed fun to Teyvat. Launching July 17th, this isn't your average limited-time event; it's a substantial expansion. Prepare for Simulanka, a brand-new, temporary map teeming with unique creatures and gameplay mechanics. This exciting addition also introduces Dendrie, a five-star Dendro polearm wielder.
Beyond the new map, players can look forward to fresh outfits for Kirara and Nilou, seasonal events packed with rewards, and special Event Wishes. The update also offers a sneak peek at the upcoming Natlan region.
Among the many new minigames, the Northern Winds Gliding Challenge stands out, a thrilling aerial competition where players soar over Simulanka, popping balloons for points.
While Simulanka's limited-time nature might disappoint some, its extended duration after the July 17th launch ensures ample playtime. This major update promises a substantial amount of content.
