Today, May 28th, the developer of Genshin Impact, miHoYo, announced the arrival of the next major 1.6 update. Genshin Impact 1.6’s arrival date is scheduled for June 9, 2021, aligned with other updates and events in the game. As a celebration of the upcoming update, miHoYo published a new trailer called “Midsummer Island Adventure,” in which the developer showcases the novelties ready to deploy.
In the sweltering summer, a strange letter is discovered on the windowsill, with a spiraling fog shrouding a mystery far away. Following the sound of the crashing waves to find the truth, sparks dance on the horizon as the fleeing sun shines brightly across the sky. For her best friend and for the great adventure ahead, our youngest knight is ready to embark on her journey — let’s go!
As a Midsummer Island Adventure theme, the players will be tasked to go to an archipelago and aid Klee on a surprising adventure. Furthermore, they will get a chance to recruit Kazuha, the first playable character from Inazuma.
This update will also take a big swing in monetization, simply due to the accessibility of new skins in the game, which will be there for the first time.
