Genshin Impact shared a new trailer unveiling the April 24 release date of its version 4.6, "Two Worlds Aflame, the Crimson Night Fades." Studio developer HoYoverse continues to expand upon the world of Teyvat with a new area, banner, and event to keep players on their toes. Most notably, a highly anticipated character, Arlecchino, is set to launch with a new banner for Genshin Impact 4.6's first phase.

With her first appearance in "Teyvat Chapter Interlude Teaser: A Winter Night's Lazzo," Arlecchino became one of the most anticipated characters among players, with fans of the Fourth of the eleven Fatui Harbingers taken in by her striking design and calculating personality. The community's excitement was only intensified with the addition of Fontaine in patch 4.0, which featured Arlecchino as an unlikely ally throughout the events of the main storyline. Though the Knave was not a recruitable character at the time, her manipulative demeanor and charismatic mannerisms still left a memorable impression on many of Genshin Impact's players.

The promotional video also confirms Arlecchino's banner and version 4.6 is set to launch in a few short weeks on April 24.

Genshin Impact's 4.6 Update and Beyond

Apart from a new boss and recruitable character, version 4.6 will also notably add the Sea of Bygone Eras, an underwater area set in the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Remuria. With the assistance of a talking cat, players can explore a sunken castle and discover the lost history that led to the nation's destruction. In addition, Arataki Itto fans will likely be thrilled to know that the rambunctious oni is set to take center stage in 4.6's flagship event, "Iridescent Arataki Rockin’ for Life Tour de Force of Awesomeness." Genshin Impact 4.6 additionally features quality-of-life improvements, such as a Treasure Compass and a Focused Experienced Mode.

2024 promises to be a big year for Genshin Impact. Apart from Arlecchino, several highly anticipated characters are rumored to be set for release sometime later this year, with another fan-favorite character Clorinde expected to debut in version 4.7. Players can also look forward to the next playable region of Natlan, which is reportedly scheduled to launch before 2025.
