When is the Genshin Impact 3.0 release date? Like the huge 2.0 update that released the Inazuma region, it added Electro Vision and a bunch of new characters. It looks like 3.0 will be big as well, with the Genshin Impact 3.0 update finally introducing Dendro elements, Archon quests, hangout events, his new Genshin Impact character, and another new region, Sumeru. NEW STORY arc and epic boss encounters. After the live stream aired, here's what we know so far.
Genshin Impact 3.0 Livestream

Genshin Impact 3.0 Banners
Genshin Impact 3.0 runs for five weeks until the end of September, but the new Genshin Impact banner still has two distinct phases. Phase 1 will see the debut of the Tighnari flag, along with an iteration of the Zhongli flag. Collei is available in both banners as she's one of the 4-star options, but we are still not sure who the other two will be.
Genshin Impact 3.0 New Characters
Three new playable characters have been announced for 3.0. We also released the 3.0 update and some teasers for the Semeru region, introducing some new faces. These officially named characters are drawn into the central storyline of 3.0.
So while we can be certain these characters will be in the game, if and when they’ll be playable is another question, although there are leaks for pretty much all of them that hint at when they will be released.
