Genshin Impact 5.2 Arrives on Xbox Series X Version Release Date

We already sort of knew that the 5.2 Genshin Impact update would arrive on the same day as the Xbox Series X version release date, but that was confirmed alongside another announcements about the newest patch for the game. It launches on November 20, 2024. Chasca and Ororon were again confirmed as the new playable characters. New Saurians were shown. Also, we know the ne Archon Quest will arrive.

Chasca will be the new five-star. She is an archer and Anemo type character, and the video shows how her skills allow her to soar through the air over distances. Ororon is only a four-star archer. However, that Electro character’s Nightsoul ability is unique to him and designed to play off of Electro and Hydro teammates to gain points to enter a Nightsoul’s Blessing State. Both feature prominently in the Chapter V: Interlude Archon Quest. That storyline is also when we’ll meet the Flower-Feather Clan tribe, and the Tenebrous Papilla boss will come up as we explore the area.

The two new types of Saurians are designed to help us travel farther and reach higher locations. The Iktomisaur are designed to jump higher, and the Qucusaur can glide farther than other ones. Both use phlogiston to travel, as usual, and the new Gaseous Phlogiston type is designed to make longer trips easier. 

Here’s the official trailer for Genshin Impact 5.2. It begins by showing new playable characters Chasca and Ororon. As it does, we see some of the new places and opponents we’ll face. At about the one minute mark, both start fighting against larger, more prominent enemies and bosses. 

The full Special Program can be watched below:

The Genshin Impact 5.2 release date is November 20, 2024, the same day the Xbox Series X version debuts. It is currently on the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices.
