Genshin Impact's Luna I Update Launches Next Month

• Genshin Impact introduces a massive new chapter with Version Luna I.
• Titled Song of the Welkin Moon, this update offers a year-long narrative to follow.
• Discover three new characters and a range of fresh mechanics.

Genshin Impact is embarking on its next major chapter. This isn’t just an ordinary update—MiHoYo calls it Genshin Impact Version Luna I! Called Song of the Welkin Moon: Segue, it launches on September 10 and will deliver a year-long storyline for players to experience.

The standout feature is the new region of Nod-Krai, expanding Teyvat’s world and exposing lunar mysteries. You’ll be swept into faction conflicts, encounter three new companions, and wield an ancient power sourced from the moon.

Nod-Krai adds three new playable characters. Leading the way is Lauma the Moonchanter, a five-star Catalyst user who enhances the team's Bloom-related damage and can transform into a half-human, half-deer form. Next, Flins, a five-star Polearm user, deals massive damage with electrifying lightning strikes.

Completing the new character lineup is Aino, a four-star Hydro Claymore wielder. By using her inventions and finishing the latest Archon Quests in Nod-Krai, you can add Aino to your party at no cost.

With such a significant overhaul, it’s a challenge to cover all the additions in this update. For a quick look, check out the new Meeting Points feature. This lets you dive into the daily lives of your companions, uncovering deeper insights into their stories.
