HoYoverse reveals several new tools and features that can help Genshin Impact players explore the newly added content in the Version 4.3 update. Genshin Impact Version 4.3 launched on December 20 with a slew of content, including new playable characters and limited-time events.
The Fontinalia Film Festival is underway in Genshin Impact Version 4.3, as the Traveler, Paimon, and other characters enjoy some peace in the aftermath of the Fontaine region's main story. Genshin Impact players may enjoy several mini-games and earn exclusive rewards, including a new 4-star claymore, while the event is ongoing. Like previous updates, Genshin Impact Version 4.3 is divided into two phases, so fans can expect more limited-time events and new characters at a later date.
Genshin Impact players now have access to new tools and features designed for the latest Version 4.3 content, according to a recent HoYoLab blog post from HoYoverse. The Teyvat Interactive Map has been optimized with faster load and rendering times, and recommended ascension material harvest routes for 5-star Geo character Navia were added. The harvest route tool helps players save time on acquiring Navia's ascension materials while exploring Fontaine, such as the Spring of the First Dewdrop material. What's more, HoYoverse confirms that the tool will be updated for Chevreuse once she's available in Genshin Impact on January 9, 2024. Players may also use the "Enhancement Progression Calculator" to determine the exact amount of materials needed to level up the new characters as well.
Genshin Impact Version 4.3's New and Updated Tools
- Ascension material harvest routes for Navia
- Enhancement Progression Calculator support for Navia
- Battle Chronicle's new main story navigation module
- Event tracking support for the limited-time "Dance of Resolute Will" event
- Six new character cards and 30+ action cards added to Card Plaza
HoYoverse also implemented a number of updates to its Battle Chronicle and Card Plaza HoYoLab tools. Battle Chronicle was updated with a new main story navigation module and support for event tracking in Genshin Impact Version 4.3's Dance of Resolute Will limited-time event. Card Plaza receives six new character cards and over 30 action cards, so those playing Genshin Impact's Genius Invokation TCG mini-game may update their decks and share them online.
These tools and features should be helpful to those who've acquired Navia and desire the most optimal path for character ascension in Genshin Impact. Since Version 4.3 introduced a lot of new content, these tools streamline some of the tasks and activities that could potentially overwhelm players who've just caught up with the main story as well.
HoYoverse is also taking feedback on any bugs and issues found in Genshin Impact. Leaks suggest new artifact changes will be made in Genshin Impact Version 4.4, and players can expect official details about upcoming changes and bug fixes later once the new update is closer to its release in early 2024.

Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy.
You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived.
Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds...
MASSIVE OPEN WORLD
Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover?
ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM
Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage.
Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration.
BEAUTIFUL VISUALS
Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life.
SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK
Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood.
BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM
Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains.
JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS
Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards.
As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure!
