The scheduled release date for Update 1.6 in Genshin Impact is 9 June 2021 year. All information presented below in the review will be updated. There will also be new information about the content introduced into the game. Bookmark this pageto keep up to date with the latest news.
New banners
First banner in the new version of the game, Klee will lead. In fact, this girl will introduce the players to the Mondstadt festival called Ludi Harpastum. This holiday is held in honor of the city becoming free. During this time, several themed events with valuable rewards will be available.
The next banner will be dedicated to Kazuhe (the next playable character to be added to Genshin Impact). This samurai was expelled from his homeland - Inazuma. The new region will appear much later than patch 1.6 for Genshin Impact, but we will start getting acquainted with its representatives very soon.
New location
Content in version 1.6 for Genshin Impact will expand significantly. This is facilitated by the emergence of the region - the Golden Apple archipelago.
Travelers who have completed:
- Quest of the Legends of Klee “Four-leaf clover. Chapter I. Real treasure»;
- Archon's task “Prologue. Chapter III: Song of the Dragon and Freedom.
At the end of the events associated with update 1.6 in Genshin Impact, it will be impossible to get to the islands. All chests, materials, and quest rewards will also disappear. Explore this location in the allotted time to close all its content by 100%.
This is a full-fledged sea part of Teyvat with many islands. It will be possible to move along it on your own boat, called a skiff.
In the photo above, the starting point of such boats is also marked in red.
New events
Perhaps the main source of primogems in Genshin Impact 1.6 will be events. There will be many of them both in Mondstadt and in the Archipelago.

This is a kind of game analogue of volleyball with elemental balls that deal high AoE damage or hit a single target. In general, Explosions, fun and valuable prizes await Travelers. Directly under Kli, a catalyst will be released, which can be obtained as part of the event. It is to be expected that for Yanfei this weapon is perfect.

During this event, players will have to fight the Primo Geovishap, the Oceanid, and the new world boss Magu Kenki. Special power-ups for certain heroes will help you collect the most effective units on different days of the event.

Endless fight
Analogue Tidal feuds involves testing in the Golden Apple archipelago. Players will have to destroy opponents of varying degrees of difficulty.
It is expected that this event will close the content of version 1.6, but between different events there may be such minor additions as Amazing products or daily reward.
Free primogems in Genshin Impact 1.6
The approximate number of reward Stones of the Source in the described events will be from 320 to 480 pieces. This means that in just the next patch it will be possible to collect over 2000 primogems.

wonderful event...
Yes…
Will I be able to save up for Klee if I have almost 4000 primogems now?
What do you mean by "can save"? Do you want a guarantee? Then you will need to say the banner with the Kli up to 90 times. If you just believe in the success and loss of a 5 * hero, then everything can happen at any time. For example, I don’t know how to save, so I do single twists immediately when primogems or the prayers themselves appear. It turns out not bad so far - Eola, Hu Tao, Dilyuk, Mona, Venti. But everything is bad with weapons - the Sky Wing and nothing else 5 * for half a year of the game.
why on June 9, in the epic genshin comes out on 8 and I think that it will be along with the update
I suspect that this day should be enough for you to the game and preload the update. Official information from the site states that the patch will roll out at 6 am on June 9th.
And from which adventure rank will the islands be opened?
Hello. At the moment such information is not available. As soon as it appears, we will prescribe the conditions for participation in all events related to the Golden Apple archipelago.
And what about the owners of Huawei?
how much will the update weigh?
no one knows yet
