Genshin Impact is set to receive one of its biggest updates yet. Not only will the Version 5.0 update bring players to the new Natlan nation – it is the sixth of seven nations in the game – the patch also celebrates Genshin Impact’s fourth anniversary with a slew of rewards prepared.
Touted as the Nation of War, Natlan is home to the Pyro Archon. The current Archon for the nation looks to be Mavuika, who is featured quite prominently in the launch trailer for Genshin Impact 5.0. The first of the eleven Fatui Harbingers, Il Capitano “The Captain” will also be making an appearance in the main storyline of Natlan.
Of course, we’re also getting new playable characters in Version 5.0 of Genshin Impact. These include Kinich, a 5-star Dendro claymore user; Mualani, a 5-star Hydro catalyst wielder; and Kachina, a 4-star Geo polearm unit. It’s worth noting that Kachina can be obtained for free by completing the Natlan storyline.
And then we have the anniversary rewards for Genshin Impact’s fourth anniversary. Once the Version 5.0 update is live, players can obtain 10 Intertwined Fates from the daily login event. On top of that, players can even claim 1,600 Primogems and a free 5-star character from the standard banner in the 5.0 update; that’s quite exciting.
Genshin Impact 5.0 will be available on 28 August. Mualani and Kachina will be featured in the first phase of Event Wishes alongside Kaedehara Kazuha’s rerun, while Kinich’s banner will debut in the second half with the Raiden Shogun.
