Genshin Impact Version 6.0: Unveiling Nasha Town and Nod-Krai
Recent leaks from Genshin Impact's beta servers suggest the locations of Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, both anticipated for Version 6.0. With Natlan's storyline nearing completion, development shifts towards Snezhnaya, the Cryo Nation ruled by the Tsaritsa. Snezhnaya's immense size, potentially surpassing Sumeru and Liyue, necessitates a regional division, hinting at phased releases.
Initial leaks suggested Nod-Krai as a separate region in Version 6.0. However, recent datamining confirms its placement as an autonomous province within Snezhnaya, acting as a crucial trade hub connecting the nation to the rest of Teyvat. Liben's statements place Nod-Krai in Snezhnaya's southernmost area, suggesting access via Fontaine or Natlan.
Leakflow, Extra, and footage from The_Strifemaster reveal a placeholder landmass in the Version 5.4 beta, situated beneath Fontaine's western waterfalls. This landmass's connection to Mont Esus, a rumored Fontaine expansion, strengthens the connection to Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, though it doesn't confirm a simultaneous release.
Nod-Krai: A Lawless Province
Nod-Krai, a region and city, sits on Snezhnaya's southern border. Despite some order maintained by the Voynich Guild, it's known for its lawless nature. A significant Fatui stronghold, led by the popular Harbinger Dottore, operates within Nod-Krai. Nasha Town is a key settlement, and its inhabitants possess a power predating Teyvat's seven Elements.
Dividing Snezhnaya might be contentious, but its scale necessitates a multi-update release. With Natlan's Archon Quest concluding in Version 5.3, subsequent updates will likely build anticipation for Snezhnaya. While Capitano's fate remains unclear, Skirk, linked to Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners, is slated for release in Natlan. Barring unforeseen delays, Version 6.0's launch is projected for September 10, 2025.
