Version 4.5 Livestream highlights
Version 4.2 brought the final act of the Fontaine Archon Quest, culminating in a melancholic and grand final “trial” that revealed the secrets lurking beneath the waters.
As such, subsequent patches from Version 4.3 onward are considered "filler patches," as termed by the Genshin Impact community, bridging the gap until the release of the next nation, the land of Pyro, Nathan. Despite this, HoYoverse has exciting plans for the remaining part of the Fontaine cycle, offering a plethora of quests and events to anticipate!
Following the vibrant Lantern Rite celebrations in Version 4.4, the upcoming update will bring players back to Mondstadt for its flagship event.
