Revenue in Genshin Impact is driven by its gacha banner system, where players can pull for two 5-star and three 4-star characters per banner cycle. To get new characters, players must use either Intertwined Fates or Acquaint Fates, which can be purchased in the in-game store with a currency called Primogems. Intertwined Fates are typically more sought after, as they are used for pulling characters from the Limited Character Banner, while Acquaint Fates are used to pull from the Standard Character Banner.
HoYoverse frequently gives players free Primogems through various methods, such as completing daily quests like the Daily Commissions or using promotional codes released during Genshin Impact Special Program events. Another way players can receive Primogems is when the game wins an award, which has happened quite often in recent years. As the game approaches the end-of-year award season, players can have chances to claim free Primogems.
As many of you know, Genshin Impact has won the Excellence Award at the PlayStation Partner Awards 2024. To celebrate this achievement, HoYoverse will distribute 1,000 Primogems over 4 days, starting December 4, 2024.
A recent post on Genshin Impact’s official X revealed that players can collect these Primogems until the end of Genshin Impact Version 5.2, which is expected to end around December 31. Many fans in the comments mentioned that the Primogems will be helpful in their attempts to unlock the new character, Chasca. Known for being an S-tier DPS unit, Chasca has quickly become one of the most enjoyable characters to use in Genshin Impact.
Players looking to obtain Chasca or Lyney have less than a week, as their banner is set to expire around December 10. HoYoverse has confirmed that the second banner phase will feature two highly popular five-star characters: Zhongli, the Geo Archon, and Neuvillette, the Hydro Dragon from Fontaine. Both characters are regarded as top-tier picks in their respective roles.
Although the five-star lineup in Version 5.2 is impressive, many players will likely save their Primogems for Genshin Impact update 5.3, which will feature the highly anticipated Pyro Archon, Mavuika. This character has appeared in the game several times, and recent beta data suggests she will be an offensive unit capable of taking on multiple roles, much like the other Archons introduced before her.
