Genshin Impact 4.5 Livestream - Date, Time, & What To Expect

The day for the 4.5 livestream is near, as the current update is halfway through its life cycle. Version 4.4 was a massive new update for the popular action RPG by developer HoYoverse. Although it did not add on top of the content from Fontaine, the major region explored in this year’s content, it did bring back the annual Lantern Rite Festival event, with a load of activities to participate in and rewards to claim – along with a limited-time story-focused questline involving the Adepti from Liyue. Version 4.4, however, does not revolve solely around the event.

In fact, one of the most notable traits of the update was the addition of the Chenyu Vale map in the northern section of Liyue. For reference, this is where players can gather Clearwater Jade in . This resource is used for yet another new addition in Version 4.4: the human form of Cloud Retainer, known as Xianyun. There were several new updates with Version 4.4, and now all eyes are on the upcoming Version 4.5, which is expected to add a new hero and possibly even bring some game-changing modifications that can alter the way players obtain characters.

Because the game follows a strict six-week schedule for every update, it is possible to determine when the next patch will arrive and, based on that information, guess when the respective livestream will be held. Version 4.4 arrived on January 31, which makes March 13 the most likely day for the release of Version 4.5. Because livestreams tend to happen two weeks before, on the weekend, the safest bet is that the 4.5 livestream will occur on March 1. The special events tend to happen in the morning.

This article will be updated once the livestream is officially announced to reflect the exact date and time of the broadcast.

So far, only one new playable character has been announced for the upcoming patch. Chiori, the Fontaine-based stylist from Inazuma, is finally making her debut as a playable unit in the game. She was initially released as an NPC during the
