Genshin Impact enthusiasts have much to anticipate with the impending arrival of version 4.6, promising a wealth of new content surpassing its predecessor, 4.5. Divided into two parts, this update will introduce fresh characters and events to captivate players’ imaginations. Scheduled for conclusion in June 2024, this installment heralds a significant expansion of the game’s universe.
Central to the excitement surrounding version 4.6 is the eagerly awaited “Iridescent Arataki Rockin for Life Tour de Force of Awesomeness” event, where players can embark on a thrilling journey to unlock Gorou, the latest addition to the character roster, alongside coveted Primogem rewards. Running from May 5 to 27, this time-limited event presents travelers with three engaging gameplay modes, challenging them to gather Iridescence Tour Tickets to unlock Gorou, Nightwind Horn, Talent Materials, Crown of Insight, and other enticing rewards.
Gorou, a formidable four-star Geo unit, emerges as a strategic choice for players assembling Geo-based teams. His elemental skill delivers impactful AoE damage, while his constellations offer invaluable support by bolstering allies’ defense, enhancing party survivability. In the company of esteemed characters like Arataki Itto, Albedo, or Zhongli, Gorou seamlessly integrates into the support role, ensuring the team’s effectiveness in combat scenarios.
The version 4.6 update also heralds the return of beloved four-star characters, Freminet, Lynette, and Xiangling, in rerun banners titled “The Hearth’s Ashen Shadow” and “Conjuring Chiaroscuro.” Accompanied by an increased drop rate, these characters offer players another opportunity to bolster their rosters. Moreover, a selection of event-exclusive weapons, including Crimson Moon’s Resemblance, The First Great Magic, The Dockhand’s Assistant, Portable Power Saw, Dragon’s Bane, Eye of Perception, and Favonius Warbow, will be up for grabs, enriching players’ arsenals.
Amidst the character reruns and weapon showcases, version 4.6 introduces two captivating five-star units, Arlecchino and Lyney, each possessing unique abilities to enrich players’ gameplay experiences. Arlecchino’s mastery of the Fond of Life mechanic transforms healing into formidable damage, establishing her as a potent on-field DPS character. Conversely, Lyney wields a bow with finesse, delivering devastating AoE damage to adversaries. Players can seize the opportunity to acquire these exceptional characters from April 24 to May 14, embarking on new adventures within the vibrant world of Genshin Impact.
