Genshin Impact has revealed the array of new cards coming to its Genius Invokation TCG game mode during Version 3.8, including three fan-favorite characters added to the game. The in-game TCG first introduced with Version 3.3 has seen regular updates to its cardpool since its launch, introducing new characters, cards, and ways to play. The recent Version 3.7 featured a massive update with over 60 new cards added to Genius Invokation TCG, as well as new mechanics. Now, the game is set to receive even more cards with its next version.
Throughout its life, the Genshin Impact trading card game has drawn on the world of Teyvat's wealth of characters to offer new strategies for players to build decks. Each of the game's updates since Version 3.3 have featured new additions to the character choices within the card game, both adding beloved playable characters and popular enemies. Genshin Impact even featured a flagship event in Version 3.7 with the TCG as the focus. Now, TCG players will get three new characters in Version 3.8 with a variety of playstyles.
A recent reveal from Genshin Impact has showcased the newest characters coming to Genius Invokation TCG with Kazuha, Yanfei, and Candace added. Kazuha will feature mechanics largely revolving around the Swirl reaction, as well as imbuing Plunging Attacks with Anemo damage through his Elemental Skill. Yanfei features a similar Charged Attack focus to her Genshin Impact counterpart, using buffs from her Elemental Skill and Burst to empower and reduce the cost for Charged Attacks. Candace focuses on supporting allies by granting Shield points with her Elemental Skill and converting Normal Attacks to Hydro damage with her Burst.

Genius Invokation TCG's newest cards are far from the only area of Genshin Impact with significant updates on the way. Recent Special Programs have begun to drop major teasers for the upcoming region of Fontaine, expected to debut with Version 4.0 this summer. Version 3.8 will also feature the highly-anticipated Eula re-run, after not appearing on a Genshin Impact banner in nearly two years.
