As the UK braces against a sudden chill after a brief spell of warmth, and Spring seems hesitant to embrace many other regions, Genshin Impact is set to ignite your gaming experience with its much-anticipated 5.5 update, aptly named "Day of the Flame's Return," launching on March 26th. If you're craving a bit of heat, this update might just be the fiery escape you need.
The highlight of this update is the introduction of the Great Volcano of Tollan in Natlan, featuring the previously inaccessible Sacred City of Tollan. This ancient Dragonborn-built marvel invites adventurers to delve into its depths and unravel the mysteries of the Flamelord's Blessing. But the update isn't solely focused on volcanic adventures; it also introduces the final tribe of Natlan, the Tribe of Plenty, alongside a formidable new Saurian, the Tatankasaurus, capable of shattering massive rocks with its sheer power.
Navigating the perilous volcano won't be a solitary endeavor, thanks to the addition of two new characters. Varessa, a five-star Electro Catalyst user, brings devastating Electro damage to the battlefield, while Iansan, a four-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of the six heroes of Natlan, enhances attack damage and provides healing support to her allies.
Alongside these exciting additions, the 5.5 update includes a new seasonal event, the Tournament of Glory in Bloom, along with Event Wishes and more, all set to launch on March 26th. Prepare to immerse yourself once again in the vibrant world of Natlan with Genshin Impact's version 5.5, Day of the Flame's Return.
