With the release of update 1.5, the game will introduce new artifacts and characters. Today, you can delve into all the information about the update and even become one of the game's beta testers

In this article, we will discuss all the leaks and rumors about Genshin Impact update 1.5. Let's get started! 

Release Date of Genshin Impact 1.5 Patch 

If the development team continues to follow their planned schedule, we will soon see the release of Genshin Impact update 1.5. The tentative release date is set for the end of April or early May. We will await more news closer to the announcement date. 

New Character in Genshin Impact 1.5 Update

At the moment, it is impossible to say for sure, but it is speculated that it will be a character named Shen Li, the Cloud Retainer. 

She wields a two-handed sword and belongs to the Cryo element. She mainly deals physical damage. It is also known that her HP will decrease over time, similar to Hu Tao or Xiao. 

We can only speculate about what awaits us in this patch and whether such a combination will exist. One thing is certain: the confirmed character described above does not exist yet. 

New Region in Genshin Impact 1.5 Update

The potential character will likely be associated with the new region called the Serpent's Chasm. In fact, this location was supposed to be introduced in the 1.4 update. 

Essentially, this region is an abandoned mine where something happened. What exactly happened? A worker near the mine will tell us that his colleagues went into the mine and never returned. According to one theory, the workers lost consciousness due to the effects of a certain gas. As we remember, the Geo Archon and his companions emerged from this mine. However, it turns out that they are not the strongest evil lurking in the underground. 

It is quite possible that a new boss and its entourage will be hidden in this underground area. A Dendro element will also appear, hiding within the chasm. 

Artifacts Introduced in the 1.5 Update

Nothing is known for certain, but it is likely that a new artifact set called "Glacier and Snowfield" will be introduced in the highly anticipated Inazuma region. 

The developers have given this set a rarity of four out of five stars. 

Bonuses granted to characters equipped with these artifacts:

  1. 15% increased Cryo damage;

  2. Four artifacts provide a +100% damage bonus to Superconduct reaction.

  3. +15% bonus to Melt reaction;

  4. +30% Cryo damage on Elemental Burst. 

That's all that is currently known about the update. Stay with us to be the first to learn the latest news!
