Genshin Impact's Version 4.8, "Summertide Scales and Tales," launches July 17th, bringing a wave of summer fun. This update introduces Simulanka, a new summer-themed map brimming with origami creatures and clockwork mechanisms. Players will team up with Kirara, Nilou, Navia, and the Wanderer to solve mysteries and overcome challenges within this enchanting realm.
Version 4.8 also features Emilie, a new five-star Dendro polearm-wielding character specializing in dealing extra damage to Burning enemies. Her arrival coincides with Yelan's rerun in the latter half of the Version 4.8 Event Wishes, following reruns for Navia and Nilou. Nilou and Kirara receive summer outfits; Kirara's is obtainable via "Excerpts of Bliss" and "Jubilant Feathers," while Nilou's floral attire will be available at a limited-time discount.
The Simulanka map is packed with seasonal events and mini-games, including Boreal Flurry (balloon shooting), Flying Hatter's Trick (claw machine game), and Metropole Trials (team-based combat challenges). These activities reward players with Starsail Coins, redeemable for decorative figurines for "Good Shelves" within Simulanka. These shelves can even be added as furnishings to your Serenitea Pot upon completion of the main storylines.
