Genshin Impact 2.8 Update Release Date

The Summer Fantasia update will kick off very soon. Grab your controllers and log onto your computer because the Genshin Impact 2.8 update will release on July 13, 2022.

It seems only yesterday we were playing the 1.6 version of Genshin Impact where we’d spend time in an area called The Golden Apple Archipelago. It’s back and with its return we will be expecting prizes, mini-games, a chance to unlock character outfits, and the introduction of a new character. This release is pretty big because not only will you Shikanoin Heizou be joining the lineup but you also have the chance to recruit our favorite electro four-star character, Fischl.

Genshin Impact is a cross-platform game so whether you’re an IOS, Android, PC, and console player you will always be able to play the game. If you want Fischl on your team you need to log in fast so you can snag her and also get her newest skin.

We’re excited to document the latest hangouts, mini-games, and character outfits you can look forward to during this 2.8 update. For more Genshin Impact news be sure to follow us and check out our other guides. We offer guides, codes, & more on upcoming and popular gaming titles.
