The biggest draw to the latest Genshin Impact update however, is that the 3.6 banners will see the release of Baizhu and Kaveh – two new Dendro users who will make their debuts in Phase 2 of the update, which is set to launch on May 2, 2023.

The next event also requires Travelers to wipe out enemies in Sumeru’s desert to protect the Wenut Cannon, a destructive weapon that needs time to charge between attacks. Different Team combinations will be required here, so be sure to flex your best Genshin Impact team comps.
As always, there are plenty of free Primogems, Mystic Enhancement Ore, and Mora on offer. So, be sure to take part in the above events to claim all the in-game goodies. A free Faruzan will also be given out to those that take part in the Parade of Providence event.
Genshin Impact 3.6 locations
A new area consisting of wastelands and an oasis has been revealed deep within the desert. This area has been damaged by Gray Crystals and corruptive Purple Mists. According to the legends, this place was one of the main battlefields during the Khaenri’ah cataclysm five hundred years ago.
Travelers will need their wits about them if they wish to survive the harsh environments and new enemies that await them. Fortunately, players will be accompanied on their visit by “Pari,” creatures that can fly.
3.6 enemies
Just like every new major Genshin Impact update, HoYoverse have added new enemies and variants that Travelers will need to eliminate. The 3.6 update includes the following enemies:
- Dragon of Verdure
- Anemo Hilichurl Rogue
- Hydro Hilichurl Rogue
- Iniquitous Baptiste
New Genshin Impact 3.6 gadget
The 3.6 update will see the release of a new gadget called, Sorush. As shown from the screenshot above, Sorush looks like a Seele and can be used as a drone. This enables Travelers to scout out locations, pick up overworld items, attack enemies, and reach inaccessible areas that would be impossible to reach on foot.
New Tighnari voice actor
A brand new English voice actor for the Dendro character Tighnari has been anticipated since original voice actor, Elliot Gindi was dropped from the game after being accused of sexual misconduct by a number of fans. Following the scandal, HoYoverse confirmed that the voice actor would be completely replaced in the future.
On April 11, 2023, Zachary Gordon was officially confirmed as the new voice actor for Tighnari.
