Scaramouche returns in Genshin Impact’s 3.1 patch, and he’s causing havoc

Cyno and Candace are now available characters, along with a new desert adventure

Hoyoverse’s enormous open-world adventure, Genshin Impact, continues to get frequent updates. The next 3.1 patch will expand on players’ adventures in the previously introduced Sumeru area and add a desert location to explore. Players may also anticipate highlighted banners for characters like as Cyno, Candace, and Nilou.

Hoyoverse revealed fresh information during a developer webcast on Friday morning. The next patch, which will be published on September 28th, will take the Traveler on a desert excursion. “King Deshret and the Three Magi” is the title of the upcoming patch. The teaser promised a scenario in which desert dwellers known as the Eremites are anxious to resurrect the recently slain Scarlet King. The much-anticipated Dottore and Scaramouche from the Fatui Harbingers emerge in this narrative, and Scaramouche looks to be in some type of huge death machine.

This patch will also include a new tale set in Mondstadt. Mika, a new character, comes, and we discover more about our resident wolf-boy Razor. It will be the first time we hear about the roots of this figure.

Sumeru now has a new desert location to explore thanks to the update. There will be enormous sand dunes to explore, as well as more populated regions. Aaru Village, a beautiful village set within weathered sandstone, is a safe haven for intellectuals expelled by the Akademiya. The Aeonblight Drake will be included as a new boss battle in the patch.

It will also add three new playable characters to the game: Cyno (also known as General Mahamatra), Candace the warrior, and Nilou. Cyno is a five-star polearmist who specializes in the Electro element. Candace is a four-star character that wields polearms as well, but she is a Hydro character who employs a unique shield as part of her Elemental Skill. Last but not least, we have Nilou, the Hydro sword wielding from the 3.0 archon quest.

ON THE 3.1 GENSHIN IMPACT BANNERS, HERE ARE THE CHARACTERS YOU CAN WISH FOR

The initial part of the banner will have two alternative banners: one for Cyno and one for the Anemo archon Venti, which will be rerun. Candce will appear in both banners alongside them.

Nilou and a repeat for the alchemist Albedo will be featured in the second half of the 3.1 patch.

There will be several activities to commemorate the game’s two-year milestone. Visitors will return to Mondstadt as part of the Weinlesefest, where they will be able to take part in a limited-time seasonal event as well as four distinct mini-games. Last but not least, developers stated that the top-up store, where you buy Genesis Crystals, would be updated, allowing you to reclaim the extra offer for Genesis Crystals if you already used it.
