The release date of Snezhnaya in is up for discussion as the action RPG by HoYoverse is bringing an end to the main Natlan story arc and setting the Traveler’s gaze toward the seventh major Nation of Teyvat as they continue on their quest to reunite with their sibling. With Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, and Natlan having been released, the last region is Snezhnaya, the Nation of Cryo. Based on HoYoverse’s roadmap, Snezhnaya is the next region after Natlan in , predicted to arrive in 2026, even if a fixed date has not yet been shared.
While the Nation of Cryo has been abundantly mentioned since the game’s release back in 2020, mainly because the Fatui under the Tsaritsa’s reign hail from Snezhnaya, the region is still drowned in mystery. The information about Snezhnaya and the Cryo Archon has developed over the years, and even perception about them has changed thanks to the new details that have been gradually released. Having met several Fatui Harbingers in , each with their own unique personality, goals, and things to say about the Tsaritsa, it’s tough to determine exactly what to expect from the region as a whole.
The main prediction is that Snezhnaya will be released in Version 6.0 in 2026 and, considering the game’s release calendar over the past few years, Version 5.9 may not exist since Versions 4.9 and 3.9 were not released. Instead, the game jumped from Versions 4.8 and 3.8 to Versions 5.0 and 4.0, respectively. As such, it’s expected that at least one full update will be skipped ahead of the Version 6.0 release. Because of the game’s fixed six-week schedule for each update, it is possible to predict exactly when 6.0 will be released.
Farming could be optimized in Genshin Impact if developer HoYoverse retired Alchemy Tables in the way that they are currently presented.
If the game avoids any delays over the course of 2025, then it’s possible to predict that Version 6.0 will be released on September 10. Patches for the game are usually released
