Genshin Impact 1.2 update: A new Map and Two Characters

The Chalk Prince and the Dragon, the new Genshin Impact 1.2 update will release on 23 December. The new update will include a new map, Dragonspine. The update will also introduce two new playable characters, Albedo and Ganyu.

Dragonspine is a frozen mountain on the south of Mondstadt. In the cold climate of the new map, players will have to keep their characters warm at all times. A new mechanic will also be added to the game.  “Sheer Cold” bar will help players to keep track of the warmness level of their characters. The new region will include a lost ancient civilization, recipes for multiple 4-star weapons, unique creatures, bountiful ingredients and rare artifacts.

As we said before, the new update will come with two new characters. Albeldo is a “a young yet legendary genius alchemist in Mondstadt, wielding a sword and the power of geo”. Ganyu is “a half human, half-adeptus Cyro archer who serves as an emissary and secretary for the Liyue Qixing.”. The name of the update comes from the seasonal event in the new location, Dragonspine. Players will investigate “a sword with mysterious power known as the Festering Desire. Players can not only obtain and fully refine the Festering Desire but also redeem rich rewards from the event shop, including the Crown of Insight.” written on the update notes.

When MiHoYo Interactive first released Genshin Impact, the game made a big impact and became very popular among the gamers. Even it is a free to play game, it is not a pay to win one. But the endgame grind can be annoying for some players. Because, when players hit the end of the game, a non-stop grind starts for weapons, armours and other needed stuff for the game.
