HoYoverse is renowned for dispatching free rewards via their flagship events for new patches. Previously, they rewarded a Superimpose Five of "Before the Tutorial Mission Starts" Light Cone in version 1.1 under the limited-time Starhunt Game. They have also lined up a free copy of Yukong which players can collect after completing the first 15 stages of the Forgotten Halls.

Likewise, the leaks have reported a free Sushang copy in version 1.3, which will likely roll out at a flagship event. It is worth noting that the information is subject to change at any given time since the developers have yet to make an official announcement regarding the next patch.

The officials have confirmed that the upcoming update will feature Fu Xuan, Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae, and Lynx as playable characters. Their promotional artwork has been released in their latest drip marketing campaign.
