Following the wonderful version 3.5, the countdown to Genshin Impact 3.6 is on. Fans are eagerly anticipating what it will bring to the table.
We received the first official information during the drip marketing campaign for the upcoming new characters, Kaveh and Baizhu. Both dendro characters are familiar to travelers, as they have been part of the game's story as NPCs.
After the wonderful Genshin Impact 3.5, data miners have said travelers will also receive the last expansion of Sumeru's map. Without further ado, here is everything you need to know about Genshin Impact 3.6
Genshin Impact 3.6 release date
The Genshin Impact 3.6 update will go live on April 12, 2023, until May 24, 2023, and it will be divided into two phases of 21 days each, according to this year's schedule.
Genshin Impact 3.6 Banners
The upcoming Genshin Impact 3.6 update is set to pack with Dendro characters, including the debuts of Baizhu and Kaveh.
However, it seems that miHoYo has more in store for players, as the patch may also include the rerun banner for Nahida, the Dendro archon, based on previous cycles.
Baizhu runs a famous teahouse in Liyue and is known for his expertise in herbal medicine. He was the first we met in the game with a Dendro Vision.
In-game, Baizhu is expected to be a Support 5-star character and receive aid from her loyal snake during combat.
On the other hand, Kaveh is a prominent architect in Sumeru and a close friend of Alhaitham. So it seems Kaveh is a bow 4-star character.

Map Changes in Genshin Impact 3.4
Hadramaveth is the name of the new region in the Sumeru Desert that will be introduced during Genshin Impact 3.4. The ley line disorder in the area has affected creatures like scorpions, vultures, and sandworms, making them very dangerous.
The image below shows a preliminary view of Hadramaveth. Now the map will indicate when the Domain and Teleport Waypoint is underground.
