Genshin Impact leaks: Enkanomiya may be coming in a future update

According to a new leak from reputable source UBatcha, it appears that the Chasm may yet again be put on hold. For fans who were excited to finally explore this mysterious region of Liyue, this may be a disappointment. However, it seems like the Chasm will be replaced with Enkanomiya, a new area to explore in Inazuma.

Enkanomiya is located near Sangonomiya Shrine and is a massive underwater area that holds deep significance to the people of Watatsumi Island. It's even rumored that the residents of the island emerged from the pool long ago. Players can see the massive entrance to Enkanomiya below the shrine, and even swim around in it.

Enkanomiya has the potential to be a massive area to explore, and fans of Watatsumi Island will definitely want to discover its secrets. There's a lot of lore surrounding this area, with quests on the island relating to its entry. It does make sense that players would head to Enkanomiya before the Chasm, as Genshin Impact has yet to make any significant developments towards the Chasm. Enkanomiya, on the other hand, is still pretty fresh in some player's minds, as the Inazuma storyline has only just ended.
