What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?
In Version 5.5, players will venture deep into the southwestern part of Natlan, exploring new territories filled with ancient secrets and vibrant life. The Great Volcano of Tollan is central to this update, housing a sacred city that has been dormant for centuries. As you navigate through the volcanic landscapes, you'll uncover the mysteries of the "Flamelord’s Blessing" and the enigmatic Little One.
You'll encounter the Collective of Plenty, a tribe that values physical strength and incorporates it into their daily life. This adds a unique cultural element to the region, enhancing the immersive experience of Genshin Impact.
Two new characters will join the playable roster: Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, and Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder. Varesa's ability to restore Phlogiston after consuming food makes her an exceptional support character outside of combat. Iansan, one of Natlan's six heroes, offers a blend of offensive and supportive capabilities, with her unique Warming Up effect providing continuous healing when a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst.
The first phase of Version 5.5’s Event Wishes will feature Varesa and Iansan, along with reruns for Xianyun, Xilonen, and Venti. Check out the exciting additions below:

For those seeking a challenge, a new boss, the Lava Dragon Statue, awaits in the volcanic fissures. Genshin Impact Version 5.5 can be downloaded from the Google Play Store, ensuring you're ready to dive into this massive update as soon as it's released.
