With the upcoming Genshin Impact 3.4 update less than a week away, the new patch will release a brand new desert region and make Sumeru the largest nation in Teyvat to date. It will also bring back one of the biggest events in Genshin Impact, the Lantern Rite festival, to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

This will be Xiao's third rerun, making him the fourth in-game character to get four or more banners. Alhaitham and Yaoyao, on the other hand, are debuting with their first-ever banner.
