Set to launch on March 26th, this update, dubbed "Day of the Flame's Return," introduces an exciting new volcano area to the Natlan region, promising to heat things up for players worldwide.
The highlight of this update is the introduction of the Great Volcano of Tollan, where players can finally explore the Sacred City of Tollan. This ancient Dragonborn-built city holds the secret of the Flamelord's Blessing, waiting to be uncovered as you delve into its depths. But the update doesn't stop at volcanic adventures; it also introduces the final tribe of Natlan, the Tribe of Plenty, and a new Saurian species, the Tatankasaurus, known for its power to shatter enormous rocks.

Alongside these additions, the update features a new seasonal event called the "Tournament of Glory in Bloom," along with Event Wishes and more, all set to debut on March 26th. Get ready to dive back into Natlan with Genshin Impact's version 5.5, "Day of the Flame's Return."
