Genshin Impact 4.8 Leak Reveals New Time-Limited Location

Introduction

A recent Genshin Impact leak provides information about a time-limited location that will reportedly be released in version 4.8 this summer.

Genshin Impact 4.8 Leak Reveals New Area

A new Genshin Impact leak suggests version 4.8 will add a limited-time map that is similar to Fontaine in terms of design. Since its initial launch, Genshin Impact has introduced three temporary locations, with the last one being version 3.8's Veluriyam Mirage, which featured a variety of content, including puzzles and quests. These event-exclusive destinations not only contributed to the game's ongoing story but also offered many treasure chests. Following the conclusion of events, they were permanently removed from the map of Teyvat.

Each region in Genshin Impact is a biome that sets itself apart from others with a different theme, featuring a variety of natural beauties like giant waterfalls and lush greenery. These major destinations host some powerful characters in addition to NPCs and hostile creatures. There, players can partake in events that require them to complete interactive games or a series of tasks. They can spend their time searching for treasure chests or hunting down bosses, from which they obtain valuable items.

New Time-Limited Map in Genshin Impact

A recent Genshin Impact leak from White suggested that the game will feature a time-limited location in version 4.8, as it did in 3.8 last year. This mysterious destination will reportedly be similar to Fontaine in terms of design and disappear after a certain amount of time. Though the leak doesn't reveal much about the temporary map, it's safe to predict that it will coincide with the release of version 4.8's main event. There is a strong chance that players will spend time in this location until the arrival of the Natlan region in update 5.0.

Fellow Genshin Impact players on Reddit shared their excitement about the new location, with some hoping it will be better than previous time-limited regions Bootleland and Golden Apple Archipelago. Besides, several players speculated that it would bring at least one skin for a random character.

If the leak is accurate, this area may feature several Local Legends like Genshin Impact's Fontaine. However, players can't expect it to be as big as one of the seven regions of Teyvat, as it will reportedly be available as part of an event. There is a strong chance that the developers will bring a multi-layered map with both overworld and underwater sections.

Upcoming Content in Genshin Impact

Multiple sources claimed that Genshin Impact will introduce a new region in version 5.0, Natlan, which is expected to be as big as Fontaine. It will reportedly feature playable characters, including the Fatiu Harbinger Columbina, who has a five-star rarity. Additionally, Natlan will mark the beginning of a new story that revolves around the Cryo Archon Tsarista and her elite soldiers.
