The developers of Genshin Impact recently announced that the game plans to skip Version 5.9 and directly launch Phase 1 of Version 6.0 on September 10 based on the habit of updating content every 6 weeks, which will bring many new banners, characters, maps and other changes.
At that time, each server will undergo a short maintenance period. Since there is still some time before the version goes online, this guide will give you a thorough introduction to all the new content included in Genshin Impact 6.0 so that you can prepare for it in advance, such as getting enough Genesis Crystals from Genshin Impact Top Up to play Gacha game.

As I just said, Genshin Impact Version 6.0 Phase 1 is expected to be officially released on September 10, and each server will start a short maintenance period. The specific list is as follows.

Then let’s take a look at the content that all players care about most in each version update - Banners. In Phase 1, Lauma will make his debut and Nahida will return. For Phase 2, Flins’ debut banner will be introduced to Genshin Impact, and Yelan’s return banner will also appear in the prize pool you draw.
In addition to the banners for these existing characters, 6.0 also introduced two banners for the newly added 4-star character Aino for players to obtain. Not only that, there is also Sumeru Chronicled Wish Banner exclusive to this version, which provides you with 6 banners of 5-star characters and 6 banners of 5-star weapons. Here are their names:
5-Star Characters

5-Star Weapons

Although few people care about weapon banners nowadays, the developers have added 4 weapon banners of the same Epitome Invocation type in Genshin Impact Version 6.0: Bloodsoaked Ruins, Aqua Simulacra, Nightweaver’s Looking Glass, and Thousand Floating Dreams.
Map
Nod-Krai, the sixth map region of Teyvat continent, is also planned to be included in Version 6.0 of Genshin Impact, which is located south of Snezhnaya and has unique terrain, puzzles, and creatures.
The developers defined this new autonomous area in the previous trailer as a place where people from all over Teyvat continent gather and set the entrance to the map near the end of Chapter 5 Act 5 Archon Quest.
Besides the very fascinating background story and plot, Nod-Krai also brings 11 new characters to all Genshin Impact players, who are likely to be related to Archon Quests in this region. It is worth noting that only Flins, Lauma and Aino have been added to Version 6.0, and the rest will be released in succession.

Here are the specific details of some characters leaked currently:
- Ineffa: An Electro wields polearm.
- Aino: A genius mechanic and inventor who can create all kinds of powerful machines out of nothing but scrap, designed Ineffa.
- Lauma: She is affiliated with Frostmoon Scions.
- Jahoda: Part of Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop with Aino and Ineffa.
- Durin: Jahoda and Ineffa’s companions

- Nicole: A member of Hexenzirkel and codenamed N.
- Nefer: She has cat-like eyes and fangs and speaks to Valka.
Of course, new regions also mean new bosses, so two new enemies and bosses have been added to Nod-Krai: Knuckle Duckle, a kuuvahki mechanism with the appearance of a mechanical duck, and Radiant Moonfly, a butterfly-shaped creature imbued with the ancient power of the moon.
As well as, Nod-Krai also includes two new Archon Questes: A Dance of Snowy Tides and Hoarfrost Groves in Act 1, and Elegy of Dust and Lamplight in Act 2, both of which contain a lot of interesting content waiting for your exploration. Not only that, the new artifact domains in this area will also provide you with two new Artifacts: Night of the Sky’s Unveiling and Silken Moon’s Serenade.
Events
Also, Genshin Impact Version 6.0 brings a lot of interesting events to players, some of which have appeared before and are returning in this version update. Most of these events will be activated starting from September 10th, so the following list about the mechanics and rewards of each event is very important for you to check out carefully.
Clink Clank Clash (September 12-29)
Clink Clank Clash requires you to use Kuuvahki to quickly travel to higher ground, earn stage points by collecting elemental particles along the way, and defeat all enemies in Nod-Krai to complete camp challenges. This process requires you to collect Kuuvahki remnants to track down malfunctioning robots, ultimately rewarding you with a free catalyst weapon and Primogems.
Dodoco’s Blow-Up-Erative Bomb-Nanza (September 29-October 13)
This classic tabletop event requires you to join or create a four-player team and defeat Spikey Fish using Jumpy Dumpties. Note that Dodoco will lose Vitality during the challenge due to attacks and the detonation of its own bombs. Ultimately, you’ll receive Primogems, Hero’s Wit, Mora, and a Sanctifying Unction.
Lightgleaner’s Journey (October 10-October 21)
This is a returning photo taking event from previous game content. All you need to do is change your character’s posture and pause at the appropriate position. Once you complete the photo taking, you can receive the corresponding reward. Since the activation time of this event is far away from now, the specific reward details are still unknown, but it is worth mentioning that there will definitely be Primogems.
To Temper Thyself And Journey Far (September 10-December 1)
This event, which lasts for nearly three months, will feature daily and weekly in-game tasks, such as training or daily leveling. Completing these tasks will earn you some free constellations for your characters. It’s worth noting that each character’s constellations can only be claimed once, and the opportunity to select them will not carry over to the next season.
Travelers’ Tales
This is also a replay event that requires you to first obtain the account gadget from Katheryne, and then visit different characters on the map, which are randomly generated, and you can visit up to five characters per day. After that, you need to record the character’s anecdotes as anecdote stamps, go to Destiny Drawn to find the specific character, and finally go to Grand Narukami Shrine to fulfill the wish and receive the reward.
Repertoire Of Myriad Memories
It is not a new event added in version 6.0, but it has been updated in it - a lot of new music has been added, which will bring you a lot of interesting game experience. As for the rewards, according to the previous version updates, they will definitely be very rich.
Overflowing Favor (October 6-October 13)
During its active period, you can get a lot of extra rewards as long as you complete all challenges in artifact domains.

The last one is the anniversary event that all players are very concerned about. During this period, you can get hundreds of Primogems and some in-game items as rewards by logging in every day, and you will also get additional Genesis Crystal rewards when you perform Genshin Impact in-game Top Up.
