At the height of summer HoYoverse announced an equally hot update Genshin Impact. Version 2.8 under the title "Summer! Dreams? Music!" offers to go to the sunny archipelago of Golden Apples, and also heralds a free costume for one archer. 

Let's go through the content of the upcoming update:

  • Each update is accompanied by a seasonal event. Now this "Summer Sea Voyage", in which players will visit the Golden Apple archipelago again. They will be accompanied by Fischl, Xin Yan, Kazuha and Mona 
  • Kazuha will receive the first chapter of the legends task, and meetings will be arranged with Heizo
  • Dilyuk will refresh his wardrobe - a new suit with redesigned animations and effects will be inserted into the in-game store. For a while, the skin will be discounted
