Genshin Impact Shares Stunning Animated Sumeru Teaser

By Rollin Bishop

Genshin Impact developer miHoYo, doing business under the global brand HoYoverse, is gearing up to fully reveal the upcoming Version 3.0 update. While still technically in the middle of Version 2.8, "Summer Fantasia," Genshin Impact has been teasing Version 3.0 for weeks and weeks at this point, slowly revealing characters and various other aspects of the new Sumeru region and Dendro element. Ahead of an official livestream detailing the upcoming update, Genshin Impact has shared a new promotional video for Sumeru featuring gorgeous animation of its many characters.

While exceedingly brief, the animated Sumeru promotional video showcases the new Genshin Impact characters Tighnari, Collei, Alhaitham, Dori, Cyno, Dehya, Nilou, and Nahida. "Everything in this world runs in a loop," the voiceover from the character Nahida states during the animation. "As for the truth... that's on you to find out. So no matter how strange or spooky things might look on the surface, maybe all they point to in the end is a small and simple secret. In the end, I'm just the Moon. The real Sun is long gone."

As noted above, Genshin Impact Version 3.0 is set to be the next update following the release of Genshin Impact Version 2.8, "Summer Fantasia."
