A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed a lot of information about the mysterious Snezhnaya region. Genshin Impact's main continent is named Teyvat, and it consists of seven major regions, each of which has its own representative element and ideals. Every region also has a powerful Archon who usually serves as its main protector.
So far, HoYoverse has introduced six out of the seven regions, with the Pyro nation Natlan being the most recent addition. Snezhnaya is the only major nation that Travelers have yet to explore, and, going by Genshin Impact's usual update schedule, the Cryo nation should arrive in 2025.
Genshin Impact Reveals Kinich's Complete Kit
Genshin Impact officially reveals information about the upcoming five-star Dendro user Kinich, who is scheduled to arrive in the second part of 5.0.
A new post on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit has revealed a lot of information about the infamous Snezhnaya region. According to the leak, most of the scenery concept art has already been finished, along with many boss designs. This means fans can expect Snezhnaya's concept art to be leaked in the coming months. The post also mentioned that one of Genshin Impact's Fatui Harbingers, Columbina, will appear in the Cryo region. The Fatui Harbingers are extremely powerful high-ranking officers who work for the Fatui organization, led by Snezhnaya's Archon, also known as the Tsaritsa.
Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Major Information About Snezhnaya
Snezhnaya has a special Royal Brigade, also known as the Drekavac Brigade, which will most likely appear as a new enemy type. The Cryo region will reportedly have a heating system called the Krsnik Torch. Many fans suspect it could be similar to the system currently featured in Genshin Impact's Dragonspine region. Snezhnaya also has a midsummer solstice festival, which could arrive in the form of a limited event, similar to Mondstadt's Windblume Festival.
The Fatui Harbingers will apparently be divided into two groups. This division was hinted at in the famous "A Winter Night's Lazzo" trailer featuring all the Harbingers. The Harbingers being divided into two groups seems to be the most exciting information, as many players in the comment section claim they would love to see an epic battle featuring some of the most powerful characters in Genshin Impact.
Some fans claim they are disappointed to see that Columbina is tied to the Cryo region, as multiple leaks have previously suggested she would appear in the ongoing Natlan storyline. So far, Natlan has introduced only one new Harbinger, Capitano, who has already fought Genshin Impact's Pyro Archon, Mavuika. It should be noted that these leaks need to be taken with a grain of salt, as the Cryo region will likely not be released for some time.
