Will there be a new region in Genshin Impact 2.3?

There are no new regions, but the Genshin Impact 2.3 update will be a continuation of last year’s Dragonspine event.

Dragonspine is a vast mountain, engulfed with ancient ruins and snowy peaks, located in the southeast of Monstadt. Due to its extreme cold, it’s considered one of the most dangerous places in Mondstadt.

There will also be a new domain located on Seirai Island in Inazuma.

What are the Genshin Impact 2.3 events?

There’s a heap of new events coming with the Genshin Impact 2.3 update, predominantly focused around the treacherous slopes of Shadowspine.

Winter Training

Outside of the upcoming event storylines, travellers who have reached level 20 and met the prerequisites will be able take part in Winter Training.

  • Agility training – follow the guides to proceed down a race course with the goal of getting the highest score possible before reaching the end
  • Tracker training – find and melt all the ice crystal piles within the training areas. Be sure to bring a pyro character!
  • Combat training – combat training camps will contain special lures and mechanisms which you will need to activate in order to complete the trials

You can participate in these events to gain snowman components, which you can use to build snowmen or trade with friends. Building snowmen and participating in the challenges will earn you special event currency and rewards, which you can exchange for exciting new items. You can keep your snowmen in your Serenitea Pot when the event is over.

Outside of Dragonspine, there are two more exciting events coming up in the Genshin Impact 2.3 update.

  • Bantan Sango Case Files: the warrior dog – there have been mysterious animal disappearances in Inazuma lately, and it’s up to you to find and retrieve the missing critters. With mysterious, sword-wielding dogs and the handy ubiquity net (used to capture animals) there’s plenty to sink your teeth into here
  • Energy Amplifier Fruition event – eliminate threats and face off against buffed enemies to clear tasks and gather fractured fruit fragments, which will allow you to unlock the corresponding deceitful domains
  • Misty Dungeon: Realm of Light – assemble your adventuring dream team and journey to a place of profound secrets in order to earn heaps of goodies

Will there be a new boss in the Genshin Impact 2.3 update?

In the Genshin Impact 2.3 livestream, a new open world boss called the Golden Wolflord was announced as a recurrent enemy on Tsurumi Island. The Golden Wolflord is the king of the rift hounds, and has the ability to summon its followers and apply stacks of corrosion, causing all members of your party to lose HP over time. In the latter stages of the fight, the Golden Wolflord’s attack will rise, but its defence to the geo element will decrease, so be sure to factor that in when taking on this tough snake-puppy!
