Highlights

• Genshin Impact version 4.4 will feature rerun banners for Xinyan, Xiao, Yaoyao, Yae Miko, and Ningguang.
• The second phase of version 4.4 will offer new weapons such as Kagura’s Verity, Lithic Blade, and Lion’s Roar.
• Players will receive 300 Primogems as a compensation reward after the update maintenance on January 31.

Genshin Impact has confirmed that Xinyan, Xiao, Yaoyao, Yae Miko, and Ningguang will receive their own rerun banners in the second part of version 4.4. In the latest livestream, Genshin Impact announced characters for the first phase of 4.4, confirming that Xianyun and Gaming will get their limited banner along with Faruzan, Noelle, and Nahida. Also, it was revealed that these units’ signature weapons will be featured in the event-exclusive banner for a couple of weeks.

Genshin Impact is a gacha-based RPG that features a variety of PvE content, including the Spiral Abyss and companion missions. It allows players to explore numerous sub-regions littered with different types of enemies and interesting NPCs. As Genshin Impact receives constant updates, players gain access to new activities, such as events that may involve combat challenges.

As confirmed by the developers, Genshin Impact will give a roster of characters, including Xiao, Ningguan, Xinyan, Yaoyao, and Yae Miko, their rerun banners in the second phase of 4.4, which is set for launch next month. This limited-time event wish will take place between February 20 and March 12, and these featured characters will have a boosted drop chance. As is the case with reruns, they won’t be added to Genshin Impact‘s permanent banner following the conclusion of the event.

Genshin Impact 4.4 Second Phase Characters

• Xinyan (Pyro)
• Xiao (Anemo)
• Yae Miko (Electro)
• Ningguang (Geo)
• Yaoyao (Dendro)

Besides rerun characters, the second part of Genshin Impact version 4.4 will offer several weapons, such as Kagura’s Verity (Catalyst), Lithic Blade (Claymore), Lion’s Roar (Sword), Favonius Lance (Polearm), The Stringless (Bow), The Widsith (Catalyst) and the five-star Polearm Primordial Jade Windged-Spear. As usual, players will have three weeks to pull them from the event banner.

Genshin Impact‘s Xiao offers players a fun playstyle and functions as a DPS unit when combined with decent support characters that can provide him with energy regeneration. Yae Miko, on the other hand, is a must-pull character for those who need off-field DPS with great Electro application.

As for other units featured in the 4.4 event banner, Xinyan functions as Physical support and wields Claymore-type weapons, while Ningguang stands out as one of the strongest damage dealers among four-star characters. Yaoyao, on the flip side, is a viable choice for the healer role despite having limited offensive capabilities.

In addition to character and weapon banners, Genshin Impact 4.4 will add a number of gameplay optimizations and bug fixes to improve the player experience. Once the update maintenance is concluded on January 31, players will receive 300 Primogems as a compensation reward. One thing to note is that these Primogems will be distributed through in-game mail and must be claimed in 30 days.
