miHoYo has announced the date for Genshin Impact’s next big update, Version 5.3 “Incandescent Ode of Resurrection.” It will be available January 1st, 2025, kicking off the new year by adding Mavuika to the roster. Check out the trailer below.
As the centrepiece of the next Archon Quest, the Pyro Archon fights with a claymore and the Flamestrider, smacking opponents with it like Dante in Devil May Cry 5. Of course, the latter is also great while exploring the world since it can climb, glide, and even traverse water. The other 5-star character arriving later in the update is Citlali, who deals Cryo damage.
As for the new quest, it sees Natlan’s heroes reuniting against the new Abyssal Mimic Dragon. The Traveler will also unlock the ability to wield Pyro, adding to their repertoire of elemental masteries. If that wasn’t enough, the Lantern Rite festival returns with new rewards and even the option for a free 4-star character from Liyue.
Stay tuned for more details when Genshin Impact’s Version 5.3 launches next week.
