SUMERU PREVIEW TEASER 1: The Fascinating Dendro Element
The first Sumeru Preview Teaser explains Dendro being the latest addition to elemental reactions. The Dendro element will finally be officially introduced in patch 3.0 and bring new elemental reactions. Dendro has three main elemental reactions and four sub-reactions. Here is a list of all the new elemental reactions:
- Bloom [main reactions]
- Burning [main reactions]
- Catalyze [main reactions]
- Hyperbloom
- Burgeon
- Spread
- Aggravate
Sumeru is currently the largest region, even bigger than Liyue and Mondstadt combined. Fortunately, Sumeru's terrain is filled with many mechanisms that will help Travelers travel around swiftly. For instance, Genshin Impact fans can traverse around using a grappling-type ability or use elements on lilypad-shaped platforms to use them as bounce pads.
The teaser also shows two new types of Sumeru enemies, such as Electro Regisvine and Floating Mushrooms, that players might have to farm for future Sumeru characters.
SUMERU PREVIEW TEASER 2: Of Rain and Sand
While the first teaser was more about Denro and elemental reactions, the second Sumeru Preview Teaser focuses more on Sumeru's exotic terrain. Based on the second teaser, Genshin Impact fans learn that Sumeru is divided into two major parts - the Rainforest and the Desert.
Starting with the Rainforest, the landscape provides an image of endless mountains compared to Liyue or Inazuma. The whole rainforest is covered with large ancient tree branches in the tropics and humid weather.
However, the vast rainforest also has many unknown areas forming its ecosystem. Moving forward with the desert, this part of Sumeru is filled with storms, oases, and sacred ruins that hold major historical elements.
Fans will also get a hint about the first quest they will encounter when they enter Sumeru. The quest has something to do with little spirits that children can only see. The little spirits would want the traveler's help to solve the current crisis hidden in the forest's depths.
SUMERU PREVIEW TEASER 3: Prelude to Wisdom
The third Sumeru Preview Teaser lets fans look closer at the main city and other parts of Sumeru. The teaser primarily focuses on Sumeru's culture. Based on the teaser, Sumeru folk consider knowledge as a resource, and it is also used as a form of currency using a gnosis-powered legacy called the Akasha system. It is also found that Sumeru Akademiya is the main governing body and handles all state affairs.
The latest Genshin Impact teaser also showcases many new enemy types that players will encounter in the future. These enemies can be found in the Rainforest and Desert parts of Sumeru.
The teaser also discloses the mercenary group called the Eremites in the Dendro region. They are independent faction that relies on wisdom and strength. Lastly, during the end of the teaser, many upcoming Sumeru characters have been officially shown to the community.
New Genshin Impact characters such as Tighnari, Alhaitham, Cyno, Nilou, Nahida, and Dehya's character design is showcased, which could indicate their debut in future patch updates.
