What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?

Players will venture into the southwestern part of Natlan, encountering a new tribe, a massive volcano, and new characters. The Great Volcano of Tollan, a location rich with ancient secrets and a long-dormant sacred city, sets the stage for a thrilling adventure. Amidst the rumbling magma, you'll unravel the mystery of the "Flamelord's Blessing" and the enigma of the Little One. The Collective of Plenty, a tribe that values physical strength, will introduce you to their unique lifestyle centered around strength challenges.

Version 5.5 introduces two new playable characters: Varesa and Iansan. Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, offers a unique support ability by restoring Phlogiston after food consumption. Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan's six heroes, provides a blend of offense and support, with her Warming Up effect triggered by a teammate's Nightsoul Burst, allowing for continuous healing.

The first phase of Version 5.5’s Event Wishes will feature Varesa and Iansan, alongside reruns for Xianyun, Xilonen, and Venti. Dive into the excitement of these new additions below.
