Genshin Impact Version 5.5 \"Day of the Flame's Return\" Drops Soon with New Challenges and Features

Get ready, Genshin Impact fans, as Version 5.5, "Day of the Flame's Return," is set to ignite on March 26th, bringing the heat to Natlan with an array of thrilling updates and features. Dive into this comprehensive guide to discover what awaits you in this fiery new chapter of the game.

What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?

Prepare to explore the southwestern expanses of Natlan, where adventure beckons with a new tribe, a colossal volcano, and fresh characters to meet. The Great Volcano of Tollan, a dormant giant, holds ancient secrets and a sacred city eager to unveil its mysteries. As magma stirs beneath, your mission is to unravel the enigma of the "Flamelord's Blessing" and the mysterious Little One. Along this journey, you'll encounter the Collective of Plenty, a tribe that celebrates strength and fitness through daily challenges.

Two new characters are set to join the Genshin Impact roster in Version 5.5: Varesa and Iansan. Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, offers unique support by restoring Phlogiston after consuming food, enhancing your team's performance outside of battle. Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan's six heroes, blends offense with support. When a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Iansan gains the Warming Up effect, allowing her to provide continuous healing.

In the first phase of Version 5.5's Event Wishes, you can pull for Varesa and Iansan, along with Xianyun's rerun. Subsequent phases will feature reruns for Xilonen and Venti, offering plenty of chances to add these powerful characters to your team.

The Bloomflower Trials Are Making a Comeback

In this update, you'll collaborate with Mavuika, Ifa, and other Natlan allies to aid a sick Saurian. A fun new mini-game, "Saurian Treasure Seeker," challenges you to guide baby Saurians through obstacles to collect treasures. Participating in this event rewards you with the chance to invite Ororon to your team for free.

For those seeking a test of skill, a new boss, the Lava Dragon Statue, awaits within the volcanic fissures. Prepare for an epic battle and reap the rewards this formidable foe offers.

Genshin Impact Version 5.5 promises to be a game-changer, and you can get the latest update from the Google Play Store. And before you dive back into Teyvat, don't miss out on our news about Disco Elysium coming to Android with enhanced 360-degree scenes and visuals.
