In order to participate, you’ll need to be over Adventure Rank 20 and have completed the “Song of the Dragon and Freedom.” However, HoYoVerse also suggests completing “Masquerade of the Guilty” to gett he best experience from the event. Completing the event and gaining enough rewards will grant players rewards such as the Cloudforged bow, Primogems, Crowns of Insight, and more.

During the event, players will be able to play through the Assault Scenario and the Defense Scenario. To put it shortly, this is a tower defense event very similar to Theater Mechanicus in the past. Players can move around on the field to influence it with leader skills, but the actual bulk of attacking or defending relies on the units you place there. Assault Scenario has you attacking someone else’s formation and stronghold. Meanwhile, Defense Scenario has you setting up a stronghold, as well as defenders, to protect your base.

There doesn’t seem to be a grand story in this event, so it’s unclear why HoYoVerse recommends clearing Masquerade of the Guilty first to get the best experience. Cloudforged is a 4-star bow that has an Elemental Mastery main stat. Its skill increases Elemental Mastery for a character after their Elemental Energy is decreased. As new character Sethos scales off Elemental Mastery, this could be a very good weapon for him.

Genshin Impact is readily available on the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. The Mutual Security Enhancing Simulation event will go live in Genshin Impact on June 7, 2024.
