Genshin Impact’s Version 4.0 Arrival
In the realm of fantasy role-playing games, Genshin Impact continues to carve its niche. HoYoverse, the team behind this widely-played online game, is set to launch Version 4.0 on August 16th, 2023. This update heralds the inclusion of the fifth nation, Fontaine, into the existing roster of worlds in the game’s universe.
The Allure of Fontaine: Nation of Justice and Art
Fontaine, which takes center stage in Version 4.0, is depicted as the Nation of Justice, known for its rich culture and art. This addition promises new, unexplored landscapes and an array of world quests, thereby offering a deeply engaging story for players to traverse.
A unique feature of Fontaine is its underwater regions. Adventurers can dive below the surface in designated areas to uncover hidden locales and unravel the mysteries that lie beneath.
The narrative of the game is set to continue with Archon Quests that take place within the bounds of Fontaine. This update introduces three new playable characters: Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet. They join the cast along with two novel bosses, each bringing unique attack styles and movement patterns to the game.
However, gamers must note that to unlock Fontaine’s Archon Quest, they need to complete the Mondstadt’s Archon Quest Prologue Act III: “Song of the Dragon and Freedom.” Without this prerequisite, players can still explore Fontaine, but the Archon Quest of this new nation remains inaccessible.
Celebrating the Game Expansion with Art: The Genshin Impact Game Art Exhibition
To mark the arrival of Version 4.0, the first official Genshin Impact Game Art Exhibition titled “Endless Adventure in Teyvat: Fontaine Edition” will be launched. Set to premiere in New York, Paris, Taipei, and Tokyo on August 19th, the exhibition will subsequently be available virtually in 15 languages.
Exhibition Highlights
The exhibition promises to offer insights into the developmental journey of Fontaine. Visitors will be privy to behind-the-scenes details, showcased through various means such as concept art, sketches, draft designs, developer notes, models, miniatures, and figurines, many of which have not been publicly shared before.
Moreover, it will highlight an assortment of unofficial artwork by fan artists and content creators inspired by Fontaine, further expanding the Genshin Impact universe through their unique interpretations.
Entrance to the exhibitions is free of charge, but due to potentially high demand, reservations are highly recommended.
Invitation to Attend
Whether you’re a longtime fan of the game or a curious onlooker, this exhibition presents an exciting opportunity to dive deeper into the world of Genshin Impact and its latest nation, Fontaine. For those interested in attending the exhibition in any of the mentioned cities, the HoYoverse team invites you to reach out for assistance in securing an appointment.
As Genshin Impact continues to expand, players around the globe eagerly await the debut of Fontaine in Version 4.0. The intersection of justice, art, and fantasy promises an exciting new chapter in the game’s saga.
