Posted by Noelle Montes on Friday, August 2, 2024

The subreddit of Genshin Impact leaks is buzzing with new information lately. There have been some unseen details on Dehya and Mika for the 3.5 update. Additionally, an interesting leak states that the game might soon add six banners in total.

This new information has been provided through some data miners in the Chinese region. A Reddit user named ‘u/ukrisreng’ has posted that future patches will add banners in three phases. However, it is subjected to change.

It has also been stated that the massive banner change could come after the 4.0 update. This implies that players can wish upon six banners when the Hydro nation (Fontaine) is released.

According to the Teyvat storyline preview, Fontaine is going to be the fifth nation of Genshin Impact. Fontaine can likely bring around a lot of characters in the 4.0 update, which can be one of the reasons for the banner changes.

What is the current banner system in Genshin Impact?

Travelers of Genshin Impact can claim characters through banners or Character Event Wishes. This applies to both 5-star and 4-star characters but some exceptional 4-stars are provided for free.

The standard banner is one of the features of the current banner system. It can provide characters from any element. Apart from that, Character Event Wishes are released in two different phases. In most cases, the developers have dual banners in each phase.

However, there have been some updates where a total of three banners have been released. Each banner resets after 21 days as the developers provide 42 days for each patch.

On the other hand, if the system mentioned above is implemented, there are chances that each patch can stay longer. It is also possible that HoYoverse can shorten the duration of each banner so that the update schedule can be released on time.

Players should set their reminders as the banners will reset on March 1st. The banners for the first phase are going to bring Dehya and Cyno followed by Ayaka and Shenhe (rerun). Additionally, Dehya is going to be added to the Standard pool after the 3.5 update.

Players should also note that while wishing upon the banners in Genshin Impact, there is a pity system that decides the likelihood of getting 5-star characters. Although getting the rare units in the game mostly depends on the player’s luck.
