The next update for Genshin Impact is arriving on November 24. Titled Shadows Amidst Snowstorms, Version 2.3 is offering players a series of challenges in the frozen mountains of Dragonspine. It’s sure to test the adventuring skills of everyone.
This upcoming update comes with new events accompanied by intriguing stories and interesting rewards. Joining players in their adventure on Dragonspine are Albedo, Eula, as well as other old acquaintances. Those able to endure the cold and complete the challenges earn rewards like a new four-star Sword and Cinnabar Spindle.
There is also another event that needs the help of players. In this one, there have been mass disappearances of small animals and a mysterious Warrior Dog. Players who rescue the lost animals have the chance to get a special Gadget, which can replicate forms of some creatures in the Serenitea Pot.
New Characters
The new update is also set to introduce more playable characters. The first is the five-star character named Arataki Itto. This rather intrepid man has Oni blood in his veins. His weapon is a giant Claymore and with the power of Geo, he is able to slash empowered Charged Attacks through his unique Superlative Superstrength. He can also transform himself into the Raging Oni King, which buffs his attack capabilities but lowers his Elemental and Physical Resistance.
The second character is the four-star Gorou. While he also has Geo Vision, he prefers to have the bow as his weapon. As the general of Watasumi Island's forces, he can provide more buffs to characters on the field with more Geo characters in the party.
New Boss
Another new is the Golden Wolflord, a huge and monstrous beast that serves as the new boss in Tsurumi Island. This beast is more dangerous compared to its subordinates, the Rifthounds and Rifthound Whelps. The Golden Wolflord has the ability to apply the “Corrosion” status which can continuously lower the HP of all party members. It can also summon Rifthound Skulls to shield itself. In the later stage of the battle, the Golden Wolflord lowers its Resistance to Geo Attacks to increase its Attack.
