Genshin Impact Launches Major Annual Update: Welcome to Nod-Krai and Fifth Anniversary Festivities

Genshin Impact marks a significant milestone with the release of its annual major update, Version Luna 1, also known as Song of the Welsin Moon: Segue. This expansive update not only introduces the game`s seventh major region but also unveils new storylines, captivating characters, and a host of special events to celebrate the game`s fifth anniversary.

Discovering Nod-Krai: Teyvat`s New Frontier

The latest addition to the world of Teyvat is Nod-Krai, an autonomous region that serves as a convergence point for diverse factions, setting the stage for the new “Song of the Welkin Moon” version series. This explorable area is comprised of three distinct island zones: Hisi Island, Lempo Isle, and Paha Isle. Players will commence their adventure in Nasha Town, the primary human settlement located southeast of Lempo Isle, accessible after a voyage from Natlan.

New Characters and Rewarding Adventures

As the main storyline progresses, players will encounter a series of new playable characters available through exclusive banners:

  • The Dendro 5-star Lauma
  • The Electro 5-star Flins
  • The Hydro 4-star Aino

Adding to the excitement, the update offers generous in-game rewards, including a free 5-star character, 1,600 Primogems, 10 Intertwined Fates, and other valuable items, making it an opportune time for both new and returning Travelers to dive in.

Interactive Experiences with Meeting Points

Version Luna 1 introduces the Meeting Points feature, allowing players to delve deeper into the daily lives of Teyvat`s characters. By engaging in conversations and completing unique events, Travelers can uncover more intricate stories about each character`s faction and the rich lore of the world.

Fifth Anniversary Celebrations

The fifth-anniversary festivities extend beyond Teyvat:

  • A special Genshin Impact x Among Us collaboration will run from September 11 to October 11, enabling players to unlock a free Paimon Cosmetic Set (Paimon Wig, Paimon Costume, and Nameplate) within Among Us.
  • Fans can also anticipate the return of HoYoFair 2025 on September 20. This “Parallels Meet” Genshin Impact Fan Art Special Program will be a two-hour livestream dedicated to showcasing incredible fan-made works.
