Genshin Impact Version 2.0: New Island, Characters, and Major Features Coming July 21st
Genshin Impact Version 2.0 is set to drop on July 21st, bringing an exciting wave of new content to the popular free-to-play action RPG. In a livestream event earlier today, MiHoYo revealed several major updates, including a new island, new characters, and a range of gameplay features that are sure to keep players hooked. Here’s a closer look at everything you can expect in the next update.
Explore Inazuma: A New Island Inspired by Japan
The highlight of Genshin Impact Version 2.0 is the introduction of Inazuma, a stunning island inspired by Japan. This new location brings six main islands, though only three will be available at launch. The Electro element heavily influences the design, meaning you can expect thunderstorm-filled skies and other electrifying features across the landscape.
Key locations include the Sacred Sakura and the Grand Nakurami Shrine, where players can uncover secrets tied to the Electro Archon Baal and experience a new storyline filled with quests and challenges.
New Characters, Weapons, and Farming in Serenitea Pot
In addition to the new location, Version 2.0 introduces three highly anticipated characters: Ayaka, Yoimiya, and Sayu. Players can unlock these new companions and expand their team. Alongside these characters come new weapons, artifacts, and bosses to challenge. Farming is another exciting new feature, now available in the Serenitea Pot. This allows players to grow crops within their realm, helping to ease some of the grind for gathering materials.
Cross-Save Functionality: Play Across Devices
A major quality of life update in Version 2.0 is the addition of cross-save functionality for PlayStation, PC, and mobile. This means players can continue their journey no matter what platform they’re on, seamlessly syncing their progress across devices.
