Author : Charlotte Dec 11,2024

Genshin Impact's highly anticipated 4.8 update is on the horizon, bringing a wave of summer-themed fun. Launching July 17th, this isn't just a minor event; it's a substantial expansion to the game. Get ready for a brand-new experience!

The centerpiece of the update is Simulanka, a limited-time map brimming with unique creatures and gameplay mechanics. This exciting addition arrives alongside Dendrie, a new five-star Dendro polearm character.

Players can also look forward to fresh outfits for Kirara and Nilou, a series of seasonal events offering exclusive rewards, and special Event Wishes. It's a major update, providing a tantalizing glimpse into the upcoming Natlan region.

ytAmong the 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, the extensive playtime offered ensures ample opportunity to enjoy its unique features. The update arrives on July 17th and will be available for a considerable duration.
