Genshin Impact 3.6 is expected to launch at 11 am (UTC+8) on April 12, 2023. Livestreams have historically occurred 10 to 12 days before a Version Update Launches. This means one should expect the 3.6 Special Program to air on one of the following dates:

  • March 31, 2023
  • April 1, 2023
  • April 2, 2023

This article will include a countdown for Genshin Impact 3.6. It will also include past examples of Special Programs airing 10 to 12 days before the Version Update launched. Travelers already know that Version 3.5 launched on March 1, 2023.

Adding 42 days (the standard length for a patch) to that date gives players the aforementioned April 12, 2023, which is when the next Version Update should go live.

There is past precedence that Special Programs air 10 to 12 days before the Version Update comes out. While HoYoverse has yet to officially reveal when Genshin Impact 3.6 will launch, current estimates predict it to arrive around April 12, 2023. Assuming that date isn't wrong, that means the next livestream should air on one of the following dates:

  • March 31, 2023
  • April 1, 2023
  • April 2, 2023

A countdown to the actual Version Update will be in the following section for those curious to see how far away the estimated date is.


Countdown for Genshin Impact 3.6's launch

The above countdown is not for the livestream. It's strictly for the estimated Genshin Impact 3.6 release date, which is predicted to be at 11 am (UTC+8) on April 12, 2023. It's a long way away, meaning HoYoverse won't reveal anything about it or the Special Programs until late March 2023.

There are currently several Genshin Impact 3.6 leaks that reveal everything about the update, such as:

  • Baizhu and Kaveh's abilities
  • New events and rewards
  • Nymph's Dream and Dewflower's Glow artifact sets
  • New fish and recipes
  • Another map expansion

Apart from those leaks, it is worth mentioning that the above dates and countdown are purely full of speculation since HoYoverse has yet to reveal anything on this topic.
