The first new zone added to Teyvat is a roaring success.
Genshin Impact launched a few months ago, surprising many with just how damned good it was. By all accounts Genshin Impact shouldn’t be as fantastic as it is: the game initially appeared to be a shameless Breath of the Wild clone (albeit with a starker anime aesthetic) with gacha elements (which are infamous for prioritizing profit over gameplay). Turns out Genshin Impact was more an earnest homage to Nintendo’s instant-classic than it was a soulless homunculus, and the gacha elements didn’t impede or detract from the solid core gameplay loop. To call Genshin Impact a simple surprise undersells just how impactful (ahem) the game was at launch.
Genshin Impact’s 1.2 update brings a new icy mountain to explore, and it’s out now
You can now find plenty more to do in Genshin Impact if you’re looking for something to keep you occupied during these festive times. The anime game’s 1.2 update – called The Chalk Prince and the Dragon – should now be available for you to try out.
The update opens up Genshin Impact’s first extension to its map. It’s a chilly mountain called Dragonspine that poses environmental challenges. While traversing the mountain you’ll start accumulating Cheer Cold, and once it reaches its limit, you’ll start losing health. You can keep it under control by finding bonfires, torches, and other sources of heat, so make sure to take a moment or two here and there to keep it under control.
