Like with the other special programs for Genshin Impact, you’ll be able to watch it via the official YouTube and Twitch channels. Judging from the picture, the voice actors for Aether, Sucrose, Kirara, and Chiori will be hosting it. Aside from telling players about new content that’ll be in the game, we’ll also get redemption codes for rewards like Primogems.

It looks like for this upcoming patch, Chiori will be the only new playable character. She is a Geo Sword character. Though she was originally from Inazuma, she now runs the Chioriya Boutique in Fontaine. She was a prominent character in the Version 4.3 flagship event, so those who played that already have a basic idea of who she is. Hints of Chiori’s presence appeared ever since 2023 when Kirara came out. Her voice lines mentioned a Chiori, which in turn caused those who named their Wanderer “Chiori” to have to change it.

Currently, Version 4.4 of Genshin Impact is still ongoing. Players still have a chance to pull for either Xiao or Yae Miko. You can also participate in the “Receiver of Friends From Afar” event, which is a new one based on cooking.

Genshin Impact is readily available for the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Genshin Impact Version 4.5 will likely come out on March 13, 2024.
