All events in Genshin Impact 5.5

1) Tournament of Glory in Bloom

The flagship event of Genshin Impact 5.5 is combat-based and designed like a competition (as evident from the "Tournament" in its title). The upcoming character Ifa will be featured in this event, wherein players must participate in various combat challenges and earn "Sacred Flame Crystals".

This event will have two different challenges: "Bloomflower Trials" and "Saurian Treasure Seeker". In the first, players will partake in an inter-tribe contest with specific characters who must be included in their team. These contests will comprise both offensive and defensive battles. Meanwhile, Saurian Treasure Seeker is a treasure-hunting minigame that will require players to guide Saurians across a game board in search of treasure.

The Tournament of Glory in Bloom event will not only provide rewards such as Primogems but also let players claim one free copy of the 4-star character Ororon.

Quirky Quaking Arena will be a co-op event that lets players play with either their friends or other random online players. The objective of this event will be to challenge various stages and collect Adventure Coins. Players can use their characters' special skills (such as Mavuika's bike or Varesa's super-fast sprint) to gain an advantage over their teammates.

This event will give Primogems, Hero's Wits, Natlan Talent Books, and Artifact and Weapon upgrade materials as rewards.

The Rhythm Ball Meztli event in Genshin Impact 5.5 will feature characters such as Mualani, Xilonen, and Mizuki. In this event, players will have to control a paddle to hit back incoming pinballs. The more bricks a player can destroy with these pinballs, the greater their score. Moreover, the elemental type of the paddle will also change depending on the active character's element, which means that various elemental reactions can be triggered this way.

Rewards for the Rhythm Ball Meztli event include Primogems, Hero's Wits, Mystic Enhancement Ores, Natlan Talent Books, and Mora.
