The Genshin Impact 3.4 Special Program teased several new events for this year's Lantern Rite festival, including a Paper Theater mini-game, a traditional art form of Liyue. As the name suggests, it is a theater, but all the equipment and actors are made of paper.

Paper theater is very popular among Liyue citizens; this time, all the players will get a chance to experience their traditions. They will participate in the mini-game and control the stage to help the "actors" finish the play.
