Genshin Impact Special Program 4.6 Airs This Week

HoYoVerse dated the Genshin Impact Special Program for the 4.6 update. It will air on Twitch at 5am PT/8am ET/1pm CET, then show up on YouTube after the fact. 

The teaser image for the showcase hinted at some of the characters who will be present at the event. This also means we have an idea of who will appear in the next Wishes banners for the game. Lumine, the female version of The Traveller, is going to appear as a host. Itto will also be present. His rerun banner appeared at the beginning of 4.5. We also see images of both Arlecchino and Lyney.

Arlecchino is a Fatui member who appeared during the Genshin Impact Fontaine Archon quests. She’s going to be a Pyro character. HoYoVerse already teased that she will be the new playable character in the 4.6 update. Lyney also appears in the image. He’s a Fontaine character who debuted in the 4.0 patch. This would mean he’ll be getting his first rerun banner. 

While HoYoVerse hasn’t officially announced the date for 4.6, we do have an idea of when it will appear. The current Neuvillette and Kazuha banners end on April 23, 2024. This means the new banners and update will likely appear on April 24, 2024.

Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the special program for 4.6 airs at 5am PT/8am ET/1pm CET on April 12, 2024.
