Ontwikkelaar MiHoYo brengt aankomende woensdag een grote 1.6 update uit voor de gratis open wereld RPG Genshin Impact. De patch notes zijn inmiddels bekendgemaakt en hieronder te vinden.
Update 1.6 brengt een grote hoeveelheid nieuwe content met zich mee. Om te beginnen komt er een gloednieuwe personage in de game die je kan ontgrendelen, namelijk Kazuha van het land Inazuma. Dit wordt de derde land die beschikbaar komt in deze game, maar volgt pas in update 1.7. Dat komt namelijk omdat je in update 1.6 als het ware moet reizen naar Inazuma. Het land is afgesloten van de buitenwereld en via Kazuha’s story quests moet je alsnog kunnen komen in Inazuma. Spelers krijgen een bootje in update 1.6 waarmee je verschillende eilanden op weg naar Inazuma kan verkennen.
Verder kunnen spelers uitkijken naar summer skins voor Jean en Barabara. Laatstgenoemde is tijdens het event gratis te ontgrendelen. Daarnaast komen er nieuwe events, een nieuwe baasgevecht, heel veel beloningen om te verdienen en nog veel meer.
