Genshin Impact 1.6 New Leaks – Will Yoimiya Be Playable? All Details
On June 9, 2021, a new version of Genshin Impact will be released. This is prone to revision, but according to miHoYo’s official announcement from the production department, they’re aiming for a six-week update timetable.
New Characters
Genshin Impact 1.6 will include two fresh characters as per leaker Arkywzx.
-
Yoimiya
- Five-Star Pyro Bow user.
- AOE Elemental Burst skill: Hanabi
- Possible ties to Ayaka.
- Because Ayaka has a voice line about her, we know she’s a playable character.
-
Kazuha
- Five-Star Anemo Sword user.
- Elemental burst skill: Wind Zone
New Region: Inazuma
- Rumored Full Release: Update 1.7 / 1.8
- Inazuma has been leaked since before the first major update, 1.1, making it the most eagerly awaited region.
- If rumors are true, a portion of Inazuma will be released on 1.6.
- Has three areas that will compete with Mondstadt and Liyue:
- Two Islands
- Main City
- If the two islands will arrive in version 1.6, it provides two additional areas to explore.
New Events
- The Ludi Harpastum is a Mondstadt-based annual event.
- The event has a 15-day run of games, giggles, and happiness.
- The winner of the games will select a maiden, who will then toss the Harpastum—a red cloth round ball—into the crowd.
- Whoever nabs or picks it up first will be rewarded with good fortune and joy throughout the year.
- A Banner Rerun for Klee.
New Element: Dendro
- Dendro is the final elemental in the Genshin Impact series. This nature-based ability is unavailable to any characters.
- It can only be used by a select few enemies in the game, and they are few and far between.
- If rumors are true, Dendro will not happen until version 1.9 at the soonest.
- Dendro is associated with the speculated region, the Chasm, which won’t be available until Inazuma is finished and then some.
Possible Roadmap??
- June 9, 2021 – Update 1.6
- July 21, 2021 – Update 1.7
- August 2, 2021 – Update 1.8

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
