Genshin Impact 2.2 Release Date – How to Preload the Update

Genshin Impact is gearing up for another exciting addition to Inazuma with the 2.2 update. Incredibly diverse regions filled with epic new quests, new characters, and new weapons await long-time fans and new adventurers in the newest update to Genshin Impact.

For those new to Genshin Impact, it is a free-to-play, anime-inspired gacha-game filled with breathtaking scenery, musical masterpieces, and compelling combat. The 2.0 update added the third of seven regions to come: a collection of islands called Inazuma. Electro is the main element of the island, and the entire region is inspired by Japanese culture, unlike Monstratd, which is the first area, focusing on Anemo (the wind elemental) and taking inspiration from German culture, and Liyue, the second area that focuses on Geo (the earth elemental) and takes inspiration from Chinese culture.
