Genshin Impact gets new character outfits with every recent Lantern Rite, and the 2025 installment adds costumes for Hu Tao and Xiangling. As usual, the four-star character’s new skin can be earned by playing during the event period before joining the shop, while we’ll need to pay for the five-star look.
The Hu Tao Lantern Rite outfit in Genshin Impact is called Cherries Snow-Laden. It features her in a red and white outfit with matching hat. Her hairstyle is also different, though pigtails are still present. Her ghostly friend does not get any new attire with this look. As she is a five-star, this will be a paid outfit you can only get with Genesis Crystals. These sometimes are on sale for the patch they launch, but eventually end up being 2,480 as the standard price for the look.
The Genshin Impact Xiangling Lantern Rite costume is called New Year’s Cheer. In her case, she has a red and white coat over a black bodysuit. She has a Guoba hat and matching purse for this outfit too. If you complete the Lantern Rite event’s minigames, you can earn this attire. After the event is over, it will be added to the in-game shop like other four-star character outfits and cost 1,680 Genesis Crystals.
Here’s how both of those outfits look:
You can also see them in the trailer for the update:
As a reminder, Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals are only sold in certain quantities. So 300 of them are $4.99, you get 980 for $14.99, and 1,980 of them costs $29.99.
Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, PC, and mobile devices, and the Hu Tao and Xiangling outfits will join the line of costumes on January 1, 2025.
