Genshin Impact has officially scheduled the release of Version 5.4 for February 12. Genshin Impact follows a frequent update schedule, introducing tons of new content approximately every six weeks. Updates are typically divided into two parts, each featuring different sets of limited characters.
Genshin Impact's recent updates have heavily focused on the Natlan region, which arrived with Version 5.0. As Natlan's main storyline slowly wraps up, it seems players will be heading back to some of the previously released regions. The second part of the ongoing Version 5.3 update hosts the Lantern Rite Festival, which is always set in the Liyue region.
Genshin Impact Leaks Important Info About Future Harbingers
A new Genshin Impact leak reveals the identities of the next three Harbingers who could play a role in the game's main storyline.
While the Lantern Rite Festival debuted just a few days ago, Genshin Impact has confirmed that players will soon return to the Inazuma region in Version 5.4. This was revealed in Genshin Impact's most recent Special Program event, which arrived much earlier than many players had anticipated. The primary reason for the early stream was likely that HoYoverse wanted to host it before the Lunar New Year on January 29. As usual, the Special Program's main focus was the upcoming roster addition: the long-awaited Yumizuki Mizuki. This character was first mentioned by credible leakers several months ago, though back then she was referred to as Kamisato Ayano. HoYoverse also confirmed that players will be able to participate in numerous events during Version 5.4.
Genshin Impact Version 5.4 Events
- Enchanted Tales of Mikawa Festival
- Traveler’s Tales: Anthology Chapter
- Invasive Fish Wrangler
- Realm of Tempered Valor
- Reel Ad-Venture
- Ley Line Overflow
- Genius Invocation TCG Heated Battle Mode: Automatic Artistry
Currently, HoYoverse has not revealed extensive details on how players can participate in these events, but most are expected to offer various rewards, including precious Primogems. According to fan-made calculations, Genshin Impact players will be able to earn over 9,000 Primogems during the upcoming update by completing a range of activities, from Daily Commissions to limited-time events.
The flagship event will reward players with a powerful new 4-star polearm, which can be refined to the maximum level. The weapon is expected to be a versatile option for many characters, as its passive ability grants a significant ATK and Movement Speed boost when an Elemental Skill is used. This event also provides an opportunity to test a new Genshin Impact feature, which simplifies the weapon refinement process.
Regarding the schedule for Limited Character Banners, the first phase of Genshin Impact Version 5.4 will feature Mizuki and Sigewinne. The second phase of the update is reserved for two popular Fontaine characters: the Hydro Archon, Lady Furina, and the highly anticipated Wriothesley.

WHERE TO PLAY
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!
