HoYoverse just detailed the next major Genshin Impact (Free) update in its livestream today. Genshin Impact version 4.6 “Two Worlds Aflame, the Crimson Night Fades" arrives beginning on April 24th worldwide for iOS, Android, PS5, PS4, and PC platforms bringing in Arlecchino as a playable character and a Weekly Boss, a new region in Fontaine, the Inazuma music festival, and more. There will be limited-time rhythm games and a new instrument to obtain in the festival held by Itto here. As usual, pre-installation should go live a few days prior to the update launching on mobile and PC platforms. I’m looking forward to seeing more of Arlecchino with character-focused videos that likely will be released leading up to the launch. Watch the new Genshin Impact version 4.6 update trailer below:

If you’d like to play it and don’t own it yet, you can download Genshin Impact for free on the App Store for iOS here and on Google Play for Android here. The PC version is available on the official website here and the Epic Games Store. If you play on iOS, with iOS 14.5 or iPadOS 14.5 and later, you can use PS5 and Xbox Series X|S controllers to play Genshin Impact. We featured Genshin Impact as our Game of the Week when it released and awarded it our 2020 Game of the Year. I also featured it as one of the best iOS games to play with a controller. What do you think of Genshin Impact 4.6 based on its trailer so far?
