Highlights

Travelers eagerly await the release of Furina in Genshin Impact 4.2, as the Archon typically becomes available two versions after the initial release of the region.

The livestream for Genshin Impact, which showcases upcoming updates, has been postponed for version 4.2 without an official explanation provided. Speculation arises that the delay might be related to the recent passing of a notable figure in China. Consequently, some players show empathy and understanding, while others request compensation through "apologems."

In Genshin Impact 4.0, Travelers now have the opportunity to explore the region of Fontaine. Typically, the nation's Archon becomes available two versions after the initial release of the region. As anticipated, Furina's release in Genshin Impact 4.2 follows this pattern.

HoYoverse releases a new Genshin Impact update every six weeks, providing Travelers with a sneak peek of what to expect in the upcoming version through a livestream held on Fridays. The new update is then launched on Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on the player's time zone. However, there are occasional delays due to unforeseen issues. In some instances, a version is even extended for an impressive three weeks, surprising players who are accustomed to HoYoverse's consistent schedule.

Players eagerly await HoYoverse's version 4.2 and are particularly excited about the upcoming livestream. However, the Genshin Impact official accounts have announced that the livestream for version 4.2 will be delayed, despite being initially scheduled for October 27, 2023. Currently, no new date has been announced for the livestream, and Travelers are asked to be patient until further information is provided.

The reason for the delay is uncertain, but some speculate that it could be due to the recent passing of a prominent public figure in China. Considering the common practice of paying tribute in such situations, it is understandable if the Genshin Impact 4.2 livestream has been postponed for this reason. Many Travelers express their disappointment over the setback and offer their best wishes to those affected, as well as hoping for the healing of the country after the loss of an important figure.

On the other side of the player base, there are those who request apologems, which are Primogems given as an apology. These gems are the game's most valuable currency and are typically sent to players by the developer as compensation for issues like bugs or delays. Many players are familiar with this practice as livestreams for Genshin Impact always come with redeem codes that grant 300 Primogems. However, due to the delay, players will have to wait for the special program to be released before receiving these 300 gems.

In addition, players eager to see the Hydro Archon, Furina, in action will need to exercise some patience. Among the released Archons, all of them have been either support or sub-DPS characters. Therefore, it is anticipated that Furina will also fit this pattern and be a support or sub-DPS in Genshin Impact. Given the power of her loyal companion, Neuvillette, fans have high expectations for the Hydro Archon to exceed those of previous characters.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
