Overview of Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Updates
- Anticipated introduction of the Great Voldan of Tollan as a new region.
- A return to Natlan within the storyline and the expected debut of the new tribe, Collective of Plenty.
- Possible arrival of new characters, Veresa and Ifa, to enrich the gameplay.
The latest rumors surrounding Genshin Impact Version 5.5 have sparked excitement among players with hints of a significant new region. Following the major expansion introduced in Version 5.0 in late August 2024, HoYoverse continues to enhance the immersive world of Genshin Impact by gradually expanding Natlan’s landscape and introducing new playable characters.
While the consensus among players is that Natlan stands out as one of the most captivating regions in the game, some have expressed concerns about the slower pace at which HoYoverse has been unlocking Natlan’s subregions compared to other major nations previously featured. The community is hopeful that one of the upcoming updates will finally bring a new expansion to this beloved area.
Reputable source LeakFlow has corroborated earlier speculations regarding a map expansion in Version 5.5. The new area, the Great Voldan of Tollan, is a highly anticipated location nestled within Natlan. Rich in history, this now dormant volcanic site was once the residence of ancient dragons, whose majestic palace was hidden deep beneath the magma. Following the downfall of their civilization, the volcano became the haunt of the Abyss, one of Genshin Impact’s main adversaries. Players are particularly excited about this location, famously known for its periodic ear-splitting eruptions.
Story Elements Reinforced in Natlan
In addition to the geographical expansion, the upcoming update is expected to introduce the Collective of Plenty, the only unnamed tribe among the six that reside in Natlan. Fans have expressed enthusiasm for the return to Natlan, particularly as the current Version 5.3 update immerses players in the customary Lantern Rite Festival, which is traditionally celebrated in the Geo nation, Liyue.
Moreover, the special program for Genshin Impact Version 5.4 is set to transport players back to Inazuma, the nation associated with Electro. This aligns with HoYoverse’s typical trend of pausing the Archon Quest storyline during this period. Moreover, leaks hint at the potential addition of two new characters in Version 5.5: Veresa and Ifa.
Veresa, an emerging character within the narrative, is noted for her competitive eating skills, hailing from the Collective of Plenty tribe. Ifa, another anticipated character, is a skilled veterinarian specialized in Saurian care and enjoys a friendship with Ororon, a character already familiar to players. However, with the update not expected until the end of March, it’s crucial for fans to temper their expectations as additional changes may occur.
