Snow. It’s cold and wet and it gets everywhere, and it’s going to be everywhere players of Genshin Impact venture in one of the locations of the upcoming Shadows Amidst Snowstorms update arriving to the RPG on Wednesday, November 24th, to all platforms.
This incoming update features a seasonal event that can be found in Dragonspine, a huge mountainous area covered by snow and subject to extreme weather all year round. During this event, players will have to battle the cold and complete agility, tracking, and combat training challenges for the chance at rewards like a four-star sword. There will also be an event in Inazuma that tasks players with finding and retrieving missing small animals, with a Serenitea Pot item that can replicate some creatures in players’ home island waiting as a reward.
It’s not a Genshin Impact without some character gatchas, and this one is no different as it introduces the opportunity to get the Geo-powered Arataki Itto and Gorou, and it also reruns the Wish events to earn Albedo and Eula.
Finally, are you prepared to fight a Golden Wolflord? No? Well too bad because that’s going to be a boss fight in this update as well. Also, it’s bringing the ability to lower the HP of all party members regardless of their shields, summon Rifthound Skulls to shield itself, and ramp up its attacks at the cost of lowered Geo resistance. So good luck with all of that.
