According to leaks, these skins are of 4-star rarity, with Ganyu's skin named "Mysterious Jade Fragrance," Shenhe's titled "Cold Flower, Secret Dew," and Xingqiu's known as "Rain Transforms the Bamboo."
Release Dates with Genshin Impact 4.4
The Lantern Rite festival in Version 4.4 will feature a festively decorated Liyue and exciting rewards for players. While some skins can be obtained for free, others may need to be bought. Ganyu and Shenhe's outfits are expected to hit the in-game shop as soon as the update releases on 31 January 2024. Xingqiu's skin may be acquired through participation in a flagship event during the festival.
Leaked Splash Arts
The splash art leaked by Plum Team leaks (PTL) and Genshin Meow, showcases Ganyu's serene pose against a backdrop of Liyue's night sky filled with fireworks. The attention to detail in her new hair accessory and heels is evident, offering fans a clear view of the meticulous design work. More details will be unveiled during Genshin Impact's 4.4 Special Program livestream.
Special Lantern Rite Rewards
Leaks surrounding the Lantern Rite festival suggest the possibility of a 4-star skin selector as one of the rewards. This coveted item would allow players to get any 4-star skin for free, excluding Xingqiu. Players opting not to choose an older skin can select either Ganyu or Shenhe's new skin.
Lantern Rite Festival and Beyond
The upcoming update is set to coincide with the Lantern Rite festival, transporting players back to the region of Liyue. Besides the skins, Version 4.4 promises new story content, characters, and the introduction of Chenyu Vale, a new area in Liyue. This expansion fills the gap between Stormterror's Lair and Liyue's Qingce Village, offering players even more places to explore.
