Genshin Impact's eagerly anticipated update, Version 5.5 titled "Day of the Flame's Return," is set to launch on March 26th, ramping up the excitement in Natlan. This update promises not only a deep dive into the game's narrative but also significant enhancements to the gameplay experience. One of the most requested features, controller support for Android, will finally be implemented with Version 5.5. Curious about which controllers will be compatible? You can find all the details [ttpp].

What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?

In Version 5.5, players will explore the southwestern region of Natlan, encountering a new tribe, a colossal volcano, and fresh characters. The Great Volcano of Tollan holds ancient secrets and a long-dormant sacred city. As you navigate the rumbling magma, your mission is to unravel the mysteries of the "Flamelord's Blessing" and the Little One. You'll also meet the Collective of Plenty, a tribe that values fitness and strength, turning these challenges into a way of life.

Two new characters, Varesa and Iansan, will be introduced in this update. Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, uniquely restores Phlogiston after consuming food, making her an exceptional support character outside of combat. Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan’s six heroes, offers a blend of offense and support. When a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst, she gains the Warming Up effect, providing continuous healing.

The first phase of Version 5.5's Event Wishes will feature Varesa and Iansan alongside Xianyun's rerun, followed by reruns for Xilonen and Venti. Dive into the excitement of these new additions with the trailer below.

The Bloomflower Trials Are Making a Comeback

In this update, you'll encounter Mavuika, Ifa, and other Natlan allies to assist a sick Saurian. Engage in the "Saurian Treasure Seeker" mini-game, guiding baby Saurians through obstacles to collect treasures. Participation in this event rewards you with the opportunity to invite Ororon for free.

For those seeking a challenge, a new boss, the Lava Dragon Statue, awaits in the volcanic fissures. You can download Genshin Impact from the Google Play Store to experience this massive update once it's released.
