The two new outfits introduced are for the following characters:

  • Klee: Blossoming Starlight
  • Kaeya: Sailwind Shadow

Klee's outfit will be obtainable in the Character Outfit Shop, requiring players to spend Genesis Crystals. By comparison, Kaeya's costume is free for players participating in the Secret Summer Paradise event by collecting Joyeux Vouchers.

Alternatively, players could just spend Genesis Crystals to get Kaeya's outfit. The appearances of these new skins are visible in the above Tweet. On a related note, Kaeya will receive a new Hangout Event in this update.


Free character

Some updates are known for giving away a free 4-star character. In Genshin Impact 3.8's case, players who do some parts of the Secret Summer Paradise event can invite Layla (Cryo Sword) into their roster.


Bottleland map: Veluriyam Mirage

Bottleland Legends was the name of the recent Special Program, with its main temporary region known as Veluriyam Mirage. This area will only be explorable in Genshin Impact 3.8, and it's basically a carnival with several attractions.

There are four main activities tied to the Secret Summer Paradise event:

  • Spino Blaster: A shooting game involving a water cannon
  • Dance of Flashing Thought: Combat challenges with various features
  • Sojourns of the Barking Fox: An aerial speed race
  • Bing-Bang Finchball: A shuffle-board game

One interesting new feature tied to this temporary map is rollercoasters, which allow players to explore the overworld more easily. Travelers will have plenty to do in this limited-time region, so remember to take advantage of it while it's still around.


Banners

The final topic worth discussing is the banners confirmed to be taking place in Genshin Impact 3.8. Here are the announced Event Wishes:

  • 1st phase will have Eula and Klee reruns.
  • 2nd phase will have Kokomi and Wanderer reruns.

No featured 4-stars were revealed in either banner. Eula and Klee's Event Wishes will launch on July 5, 2023, when the new update officially debuts. Wanderer and Kokomi's banners don't have a confirmed release date, although they are expected to come out around July 26, 2023.
