Banners
The livestream will also reveal the upcoming banners. That said, some banner info is available, thanks to leaks via HomDGCat. According to the leaker, the following characters are likely to be in Genshin Impact 5.2 event wishes:
Phase I (November 20, 2024)
- Chasca (5-star Anemo)
- Lyney (5-star Pyro)
Phase II (December 10, 2024)
- Neuvillette (5-star Hydro)
- Zhongli (5-star Geo)
4-star characters
- Ororon (4-star Electro)
- Heizou (4-star Anemo)
- Fischl (4-star Electro)
- Yaoyao (4-star Dendro)
The leaker did not share which phase these 4-star characters will be featured on, so it's still unclear when Ororon will be released. However, the livestream will reveal more details.
New weapon - Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage
Since Chasca is a 5-star unit, she will also get her own signature weapon. According to the beta leaks, her Bow is called Astral Vulture's Crimson Plumage and will be featured on the weapon banner during the first half.
New areas
The beta leaks show that new areas in Natlan will be added. This will supposedly include the following locations:
- Mt. Mirrorwall
- Ochkanatlan
- Jutperch Cliff
All the areas are expected to be located on the northwest side of the current Natlan. It is speculated that this will also include two new tribes: Master of the Night Wind and Flower-Feather Clan. The former is Citlali's clan and the latter is Chasca's.
It is safe to say that this will also increase the level cap on Natlan's offering system, Tona's Flame, and players will be able to claim more rewards.
New Saurian abilities
According to beta leaks, Genshin Impact 5.2 is also expected to introduce two new types of Saurians. One is called Qucusaurus, which Travelers would be familiar with because of the Goldflame Qucusaur Tyrant boss in Huitzli Hill. Meanwhile, the other is called Iktomisaurus. Interestingly, both Saurians have the ability to fly so it will make exploration more fun and easier.
Travelers can expect a gameplay showcase of these Saurians in the Genshin Impact 5.2 livestream.
New Natlan Archon Quest Act
Genshin Impact 5.2 is also expected to release a new Natlan Archon Quest act. However, unlike versions 5.0 and 5.1, the upcoming update will include only one act. Travelers can look forward to a sneak peek of the quest during the livestream.
New world boss showcase
The livestream will also reveal a new world boss called Tenebrous Papilla: Type I. It's like the Tenebrous Mimiflora abyss monster Travelers fight during the Natlan Archon Quest.
Treasure compass QoL update
During the livestream, the officials are also expected to reveal some QoL updates in Genshin Impact 5.2. This will include the Treasure Compass update. The beta leaks suggest that from version 5.2, the compass will show the locations of Seelies and time trial challenges as well, which is an amazing update.
Events
The livestream will also reveal all the upcoming events in version 5.2, including the flagship event. According to the leaks, the new update will feature the following events:
- New flagship event in Natlan
- Shared Sight rerun
- Adventurer's Trials rerun
- Mutual Security Enhancing Simulation rerun
It is worth adding that the flagship event is expected to give away a 4-star Sword as a reward.
Livestream codes
Lastly, the livestream will drop three new codes Travelers can redeem for 300 Primogems and other in-game rewards. It is important to remember that these codes usually expire within a day, so it's best to claim the freebies as early as possible.
