A recent Genshin Impact leak has allegedly revealed the depth of the Chasm, which will be arriving in the upcoming 2.6 update on March 30, 2022. The majority of the Chasm is currently sealed off to players, but version 2.6 will make the Chasm explorable for the first time. Said to be rich in ore, the Chasm is a quarry-like area located west of Lisha in Liyue. Once a mining area, the Chasm is home to underground mines that players will be able to explore, taking them hundreds of meters underground.

Once the Archon War had passed, the people of Liyue mined in the area, reaping the Chasm’s rich rewards. During Genshin Impact’s 2.5 livestream, it was revealed the Chasm comprises of two parts: the surface and underground mines, which are treacherous to navigate.
