Here\u2019s everything you need to know. Genshin Impact Version 2.6 is set to start concluding the Inazuma story as players gear up for Sumeru. But first, there\u2019ll be a slight detour to Liyue for The Chasm. Ayato is coming in the next update, and leaks have indicated plenty of surprise character appearances in the upcoming stories \u2014 including Dainsleif. It\u2019s still early days, but we\u2019ve compiled all the Genshin Impact Version 2.6 livestream details in one place for you here, so you can start getting ready for the March update now. Contents Genshin Impact Version 2.6 release date – Genshin Impact Version 2.6 livestream – What\u2019s coming in Version 2.6? – Genshin Impact Version 2.6 patch notes – Genshin Impact Version 2.6 release date Genshin Impact\u2019s Version 2.6 update, \u201cZephyr of the Violet Garden,\u201d released on March 30, 2022. The update includes The Chasm, Ayato banner, Irodori Festival, and new story content from the Traveler Twins and Khaenri\u2019ah. Genshin Impact Version 2.6 livestream The Genshin Impact Version 2.6 livestream date was recently announced by HoYoverse and was held on March 18, 2022. Travelers can watch the Zephyr of the Violet Garden trailer above. In case you miss the livestream on Twitch, you can find out all the details below. However, be sure to redeem the special redemption codes and other goodies from the initial livestream via our promo codes hub. What\u2019s coming in Genshin Impact Version 2.6? Kamisato Ayato\u2019s release The head of the Kamisato Clan, Ayato, is finally joining the Genshin Impact roster as a playable character in Version 2.6. Revealed just before the previous update went live, the five-star Hydro Sword user\u2019s release has been a long time coming. Players have posted snippets of his gameplay from the beta, showing off his synergy with his sister Ayaka, as well as other Cryo carries in Freeze comps. Read More: Genshin Impact codes – Details on Ayato\u2019s signature weapon, Haran Tsukishiro Futsu, have been floating around on the beta. With CRIT Rate as its secondary stat and a massive Normal Attack DMG steroid as its ability, it\u2019ll be a great buff weapon. As for his banner, the rate-up characters are yet to be revealed. However, we\u2019ll keep you posted. Venti and Ayaka banner re-runs HoYoverse are keeping the re-runs flowing in Genshin Impact Version 2.6 with two five-stars reappearing: Venti and Ayaka. The Wind Archon will be joining Ayato in the first half of the update, before Ayaka\u2019s banner stands solely on its own after three weeks into the update. Much like Ayato\u2019s banner though, four-star rate-up characters haven\u2019t been revealed. The Chasm breaks new ground in Liyue During the Genshin Impact 2.6 livestream, HoYoverse announced new details surrounding The Chasm, which will release in the upcoming update. While The Chasm currently can\u2019t be explored right now, we do know a few things about this area thanks to a number of new details. According to the 2.5 livestream, The Chasm was formed after a celestial body crashed into the earth, with a large mine eventually being formed around it. The location is said to be filled with strange stones and mysterious ores, while the soil and vegetation around the area have distinctive colors. The underground mines are the most treacherous areas, and what\u2019s more, down in The Chasm, vicious enemies lurk in the shadows. In order to navigate the dark depths, Travelers will be given a Lumenstone Adjuvant \u2013 a gadget that helps illuminate pathways. Much like Dragonspine\u2019s Frostbearing Tree, maxing this out with make things easier for you while cave diving, and you\u2019ll get some sweet rewards for it too. Irodori Festival event celebrates all things Inazuma The main event of Genshin Impact Version 2.6 is the Irodori Festival. First appearing during the beta test, the new event will include basically the full cast of Inazuman characters so far released, as well as some favorites from Mondstadt and Liyue. The event will feature four minigames, which range from taking themed photographs for a Mondstadt bard, clearing stages in the upgraded Theater Mechanicus, dueling in sword fighting, or practicing the art of flower arrangement. When all the Irodori Festival challenges are completed, players can unlock a chance to recruit the four-star playable character Xingqiu. If that wasn\u2019t enough, a smattering of Primogems and other rewards are also expected. Dainsleif appearance in Genshin Impact Version 2.6 Dainsleif will finally make his long-awaited return in the Genshin Impact 2.6 update. During the Archon Quest \u201cRequiem of the Echoing Depths\u201d, the Traveler will accompany Dainsleif into the very depths of The Chasm. Dainsleif previously graced our screens all the way back in Chapter I, and since then, the mysterious character also made an appearance in the world quest \u2018Bough Keeper: Dainsleif\u2019. Quite what his involvement will be in the 2.6 story remains to be seen, but Travelers will be hoping to hear more about Dainsleif\u2019s backstory.
