• Normal Mode: 12 characters (as opposed to the previous 14)

Starting from September 1, challenging Imaginarium Theater will grant you special Brilliant Blessings, which are essentially Elemental Reaction buffs. Each season in the gameplay mode focuses on three main elements, and these Brilliant Blessings will give you buffs corresponding to these elements.

For example, if a certain season of Imaginarium Theater focuses on Hydro, Dendro, and Pyro elements, then the following Brilliant Blessings will be available as buffs:

• Bloom Blessing (Hydro + Dendro)
• Vaporize Blessing (Hydro + Pyro)
• Burning Blessing (Pyro + Dendro)

Selecting Brilliant Blessing buffs consecutively can also allow you to upgrade these Blessings. This means that if you select quite a few Bloom Blessings, the damage caused by Bloom Dendro Cores will be enhanced, and you will also be able to create stronger Dendro Cores while fighting enemies in Imaginarium Theater.

A new difficulty level called 'Visionary Mode' will be added to Imaginarium Theater from September 1. This mode is more challenging than all the other modes currently available (Easy, Normal, and Hard). The Visionary Mode can be unlocked after completing a full performance of Imaginarium Theater on Hard Mode.

There are certain requirements that you also need to fulfill to play the Visionary Mode level. These are:

• A total of 22 characters is required to start performances in Visionary Mode.
• These characters must have reached a minimum of Level 70.
• Four additional characters can be added to the lineup.
• One Supporting Cast character can be invited.

Clearing Imaginarium Theater on Visionary Mode for a total of 10 times will grant players additional Performance Tour Rewards, including Primogems, Mora, and other valuable in-game items.
