Genshin Impact Version 4.5’s biggest highlights

Genshin Impact’s latest update adds a new seasonal event called ‘Alchemical Ascension’, which begins with the Knights of Favonius calling players over to help manage an alchemical potion shop. If you’ve played the game’s other business management minigames, you know the deal by now: you’ll be tasked with handling the potion business’ production all the way from cultivating ingredients and mixing potions to selling them to customers. 

When players start to see revenue pouring in, they’ll be able to buy more facilities and potion bottles to scale up the business in different ways. They’ll also be able to meet other returning characters and strike deals with them to build up the business. As a reward for all your hard work, you’ll get the exclusive 4-star polearm ‘Dialogues of the Desert Sages’, along with a host of other rewards. 

The 4.5 update also adds a new playable character: Chiori, the genius Inazuma fashion designer and owner of Fontaine’s Chioriya Boutique. Chiori is a 5-star Geo sword wielder who can summon an automaton doll named Tamoto in battle to deal damage. Her Elemental Burst allows her to draw her twin blades and deliver a damaging blow, and she passively buffs the party’s movement speed by 10% during exploration if one of its members is wearing a non-default outfit or wind glider. 

Chiori and Arataki Itto will be featured in the first half of Version 4.5’s Event Wishes, while Neuvillette and Kaedehara Kazuha arrive in the second half. An all-new Chronicled Wish will also be featured for the first time, bringing along 5-star characters like Albedo, Klee, Jean Mona and more. A new Training Guide will also now give players tips on how best to enhance their party based on their current equipment, making progression easier. 

Genshin Impact Version 4.5 launches on March 13, 2024.
