Genshin Impact's 3.0 update, adding new characters like Collei or Toghnari but above all the new region of Sumeru which has been long awaited by players, is coming this week and we offer you an overview in order to see what who awaits you.
Genshin Impact Update 3.0 Date, Maintenance, and Compensation
To begin, we will return to the elements that are not related to the content that it will offer, that is to say the date of the update, but also the compensation and the duration of the maintenance.
If you haven't seen the live presentation or read our recap of it, you should know that the 3.0 update will be available on Wednesday, August 24 at 5 a.m. (French time) except in the event that maintenance is prolonged. Moreover, since we are talking about it, the maintenance will last 5 hours and will start at midnight, except if a problem persists of course. As for the compensation, you will be entitled to 60 primo gems per hour , which should therefore be 300 primo gems as usual.

Maintenance date : August 24 from 12:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m.
Let's now look at the content, starting with the banners or if you prefer, the greetings.
Version 3.0 banners
As you know, each update is separated into two parts and the summon banners are also distributed in the same way. First, we will see those of the first part of version 3.0 then we will briefly return to those that will close the arrival of Sumeru.
For this version 3.0, we will have two character wishes and only one for weapons. The first banner will highlight Collei and Tighnari while the second will highlight Zhongli. Here is the detailed content of each wish:
- Tighnari (first banner)
- Zhongli (second banner)
- collei
- Fischl
- Diona
On the one hand, you only have archers if you ever want to make a team based on this weapon, nevertheless, you should know that there is no elemental reaction between Cryo and Dendro elements at present. On the other side, we have Zhongli who can bring some solidity to your team with his shield.
Let's take a look at the weapons that come with these heroes. Unsurprisingly, we will have the right to the bow unveiled during the livestream as well as Zhongli's spear.
- The Path of the Hunter (5-Star Bow)
- Prismatic Piercer (5-Star Spear)
- Last String (4 Star Bow)
- Favonius Sword (4-Star One-Handed Sword)
- Favonius Code (4 Star Catalyst)
- Spear of Favonius (4-star spear)
-
Clock Sword (4-star two-handed sword)
The 4-star weapons are there to provide you with additional particles except the Clock Sword which will be there to grant you a shield.
All of the wishes we've seen so far are available for the first half of the update.
-
Available from August 24 at 5 a.m. to September 9 at 5:59 p.m.
The second part of the update will allow you to discover the character of Dori. It is a 4 star Electro and you can imagine it, but there will be no new 5 stars. It will therefore be necessary to do with the reruns of Ganyu and Kokomi.
- Availability of wishes for the second part: from September 9 at 6 p.m. until the end of the 3.0 update
