Genshin Impact: Exciting Liyue Expansion Leak Unveils Stunning New Features!

Highlights

Genshin Impact's Liyue region is rumored to receive a new expansion, adding the highly anticipated Chenyu Vale to the game's map with the Version 4.4 update.

Since its launch, the game's map has been continuously expanding, featuring new playable regions and expansions in every major update. In addition to Liyue, other regions such as Mondstadt are rumored to be in line for expansions, with exciting additions including new locations and characters.

A recent leak from Genshin Impact suggests that the game's map will be expanded to include a highly anticipated area in the Liyue region. Liyue, which is inspired by China, has gained popularity among players since its initial introduction. The second region, which was expanded in the Version 2.6 update to include the enigmatic Chasm, is now rumored to be welcoming another location within Liyue during the Fontaine cycle.

Since its release in late 2020, Genshin Impact's map has significantly grown in size, with the addition of various new regions and exploration sites. Each year, the HoYoverse RPG introduces a new playable region, with the most recent update unveiling the Hydro-themed Fontaine region earlier this month. Previous updates have also expanded existing regions, such as the Chasm and the Dragonspine update in Mondstadt in Version 1.2. According to recent leaks, Liyue will soon undergo further expansion in a future update.

A recent update from well-known Genshin Impact leaker Tao, shared by leaker Uncle SH, has brought exciting news for players. Liyue, one of the game's regions, is set to receive a new expansion in the near future. According to the leak, the highly anticipated Chenyu Vale has a strong possibility of being introduced in the upcoming Version 4.4 update, confirming previous rumors. Initially believed to be the entrance to Fontaine, it was later revealed that the entrance lay in the Sumeru desert. Fans can look forward to the release of Genshin Impact's Version 4.4 update in December 2023.

The speculated inclusion of Chenyu Vale is not the only expansion anticipated for Genshin Impact's existing regions. Mondstadt, the game's initial region, has long been surrounded by rumors of potential expansions, such as Dornman Port and the Dandelion Sea, which have been hinted at through leaks and speculation. Additionally, there are rumors about the introduction of several new characters from previous regions, including Mondstadt's Grand Master Varka and Liyue adeptus Cloud Retainer, among others, who may join the playable roster.

Version 4.4 is said to bring about the rumored expansion of Liyue, coinciding with various anticipated additions to Fontaine throughout the cycle of the new region. There are whispers of three significant expansions planned for Fontaine, with the first expected to be introduced as early as Version 4.1, featuring the Fortress of Meropide. Leaks have already pointed towards the inclusion of the Fontaine Research Institute in Version 4.4, potentially indicating a shared update with Liyue. These rumored expansions for Fontaine and Liyue suggest that Genshin Impact's map is poised to undergo considerable growth in the upcoming updates.

Genshin Impact is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices. A Switch version is in development.
