Mihoyo has finally revealed the updates of Genshin Impact Version 2.0 with its latest “Special Program” on Youtube. The development team discussed the newest features, characters, events, weapons, and artifacts that are coming to the game. One of this includes the addition of the Inazuma region. Inazuma has long been awaited by the fans of the game since last year after Liyue’s introduction in the game.
So without further ado, here’s everything you should expect from Genshin Impact 2.0 and its features:
GENSHIN IMPACT 2.0 TRAILER – THE IMMOVABLE GOD AND THE ETERNAL EUTHYMIA
A foreign thunderstorm tears the sky apart, splitting eternity. Flashes of lightning cut through the darkness, as a god’s will manifests.
Overcome endless thunderstorms, set foot on the island of cherry blossoms, and witness the Eternity pursued by Her Excellency, the Almighty Narukami Ogosho.
GENSHIN IMPACT 2.0 INAZUMA RELEASE DATE
The Genshin Impact 2.0 release date is on July 21. The release date, alongside details about the update, was announced by Mihoyo during the 2.0 special program.
GENSHIN IMPACT 2.0 INAZUMA MAP
The biggest feature added in Genshin Impact 2.0 is the introduction of Inazuma, the newest continent in the World of Teyvat. Inazuma will have six different islands across the sea, and each island will have its own unique look. According to Genshin Report, Travelers will be able to visit three of Inazuma’s islands in the 2.0 update. While the remaining three islands will be introduced later this year.

Inazuma – Nation of Eternity
While Mondstadt believes in freedom and Liyue honors contracts, Inazuma is known as the Nation of Eternity. Its Almighty Shogun, the Electro Archon, focused on her single goal of implementing Eternity. Travelers will unveil the reason as to why the Archon with the power of fleeting lightning seeks eternity on your adventure in Inazuma.
In contrast to the Electro Archon’s pursuit of eternity, Inazuma is a place where Travelers can find ephemeral beauty everywhere. And unlike the clear sunny days in Mondstadt and Liyue, the weather in Inazuma changes quickly and drastically with its strong sea breeze and raging thunderstorms.
The Inazuma area consists of six main islands across the ocean, each with a unique landscape and history. With Version 2.0, Genshin Impact is only releasing three of the six main islands. Travelers Travelers can visit the Sacred Sakura and Grand Nakurami Shrine on Narukami Island. Then the Travelers can go to Inazuma City to see the magnificent Tenshukaku where the Shogun resides. Travelers may also witness the giant skeleton of the Tatarigami at Yashiori Island, where the Raiden Shogun defeated the great serpent. Travelers may also find themselves lost in the area shrouded in thunderstorms, or stumble into huge mysterious underground areas and ruins hidden beneath the sea surface.
Serenitea Pot – Inazuma Update
Genshin Impact gardening will arrive in 2.0 as part of the Genshin Impact serenitea pot housing system. Travelers will also find new wood types in Inazuma to construct new furniture.
Cross-save Progress
Genshin Impact is now capable of allowing cross-save on the same account and share progression between PlayStation consoles, PC, and mobile devices. This feature will be available with the launch of Genshin Impact 2.0.
GENSHIN IMPACT 2.0 NEW CHARACTERS
Genshin Impact 2.0 will introduce new playable characters from Inazuma. The first banner will feature the Cyro Five-star sword wielder, Ayaka. She’ll be followed by a banner featuring Yoimiya, a five-star Pyro Bow user, and Sayu, a four-star Anemo Claymore user.
Kamisato Ayaka
Kamisato Ayaka is the daughter of the Yashiro Commission’s Kamisato Clan from Inazuma. Poised and graceful, noble and virtuous. Ayaka is a kind-hearted girl with a pleasant temperament who treats others with politeness and courtesy. She holds the people of Inazuma dear to her heart and often goes out of her way to personally assist them in all kinds of matters.
Yoimiya
Yoimiya is a talented pyrotechnician. The current owner of Naganohara Fireworks known as the “Queen of the Summer Festival.” She is a household name in Inazuma. Principle and craftsmanship are Yoimiya’s dearest qualities. Even though fireworks are fleeting, their blaze and warmth lives in people’s hearts forever.
Sayu
Sayu is a pint-sized, agile ninja associated with the Shiyuumatsu-Ban. She firmly believes that sleep can replenish all her energy and help her grow taller. In order to live by this principle and have as much time to nap as possible, she honed her ninjutsu to perfection.
Aside from these three upcoming playable characters, there are also new characters that Travelers will meet in Inazuma present in the trailer. These characters include Gorou, the General of the Sangonomiya Resistance; Sangonomiya Kokomi, the Leader of the Sangonomiya Resistance; Thoma, the Chief Retainer of the Kamisato Clan; and Kujou Sara, the adopted daughter of the Kujou Clan who supports the Vision Hunt Decree.
