Genshin Impact 4.6 overview, as per leaks

Arlecchino and her signature weapon

Arlecchino's gameplay and abilities have already been leaked online. According to the beta leaks, she has an interesting kit that relies heavily on the Bond of Life effect. It is too soon to comment on her damage-dealing abilities since she is still in her beta phase, and she can be compared to other units only after she is officially released.

Arlecchino's signature weapon has also been leaked. It is a 5-star Polearm and is supposedly called Crimson Moon's Semblance. Interestingly, it also has a Bond of Life mechanic and provides a good amount of DMG bonuses from its passive. Additionally, it can turn into a Scythe when Arlecchino is performing Normal and Charged Attacks.

New region

HoYoverse is expected to add new locations in Genshin Impact 4.6. A new small island called Petrichor will likely replace the giant hole between Fontaine, Sumeru, and Liyue. It is also speculated that a separate map for Remuria will be added, similar to The Chasm: Underground Mines and Enkanomiya. It will likely be accessible via the pool in Petrichor.

Furthermore, the new map in version 4.6 will open the northern part of the Sumeru rainforest and desert. This will include the Bayda Harbor area, which is surprisingly very small compared to other harbors in the game.

New Story Quests for Arlecchino and Cyno

According to Team Mew, Arlecchino and Cyno will get Story Quests in Genshin Impact 4.6. The Knave getting a new Story Act is expected since she is a new playable unit. Meanwhile, assuming the leak about Cyno receiving a second part will make him only the second non-Archon character after Yoimiya with two Story Quests.

New artifact sets

Two new artifact sets are expected to be released in the Genshin Impact 4.6 update. One of them is supposedly called the Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy and will likely be Arlecchino's signature set. The other is called Unfinished Reverie, which is expected to be for Burning reaction.
