What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?
Prepare to venture deep into the southwestern part of Natlan, where you'll encounter a new tribe, explore a massive volcano, and meet fresh characters. The Great Volcano of Tollan isn't just a scenic backdrop; it's a place filled with ancient secrets and a sacred city that has been dormant for centuries.
As you navigate the magma-filled landscapes, your mission will be to unravel the mystery behind the "Flamelord's Blessing" and the enigma of the Little One. Along this journey, you'll encounter the Collective of Plenty, a tribe that values fitness and transforms strength challenges into a cultural norm.
Two new characters are set to join the fray in Genshin Impact Version 5.5: Varesa and Iansan. Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, brings a unique twist to support roles by restoring Phlogiston after consuming food. Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan's six heroes, combines offense with support capabilities. When a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst, she gains the Warming Up effect, enabling continuous healing.
The first phase of Version 5.5's Event Wishes will feature Varesa and Iansan alongside Xianyun's rerun, followed by reruns for Xilonen and Venti. Check out the trailer below to get a glimpse of what's coming:

For those looking for a challenge, a new boss awaits in the volcanic fissures: the Lava Dragon Statue. Make sure to download the game from the Google Play Store to experience this massive update as soon as it drops.
