The Genshin Impact Version "Luna V" (also known as 6.4) Phase 1 banners have been officially unveiled, bringing long-awaited additions to the roster.

This update, themed around a return to Mondstadt with "Homeward, He Who Caught the Wind," launches globally on February 25, 2026, after maintenance starting at 6:00 AM UTC+8.

Phase 1 banners will be available from February 25, 2026, until March 17, 2026 (server times apply).
