Genshin Impact Version 3.0 was a smashing success. Players are all praise for the attention to detail in this new region of Sumeru. The element of Dendro opens up so many new avenues and gameplay styles that people are still mixing and matching builds to discover new teams and synergies. The first two Acts of Sumeru’s Archon Quest are lauded as the best beginning to an Archon storyline yet.
With all that success it can be easy to forget we’ve only experienced half of Sumeru as the desert region still largely remains unreleased. Genshin Impact Version 3.1 is expected to release the majority of the Desert landscape of Sumeru and it’ll again be a whole new experience with new missions, quests, puzzles and mechanics. We’ll have new creatures, enemies and characters to meet too.
Thankfully, players won’t have to wait long as the Special Program for Version 3.1 of Genshin Impact has already been announced
Genshin Impact Version 3.1 Special Program
Genshin Impact Version 3.1 Special Program was recently announced and it is scheduled to go live on the 16th of September, 2022 at 8:00 AM (UTC-4).
The official title of the update is “King Deshret and the Three Magi” which is also the title of the main Archon quest of this patch. We already know from Act I and Act II that the Scarlet King is actually King Deshret and following Version 3.1 we’re likely to never hear the Scarlet King moniker again due to legal issues. We also know from the official splash art posts of the upcoming characters that Candace is related to King Deshret through her lineage.
The poster of the special program also hints at the upcoming Desert region. There’s a clear Egyptian influence with the architecture and the figures of what is most likely Anubis- an ancient Egyptian god of the dead. With every new special program, we also get fresh 300 free Primogems so keep tracking us for Redemption Codes which we will post here as soon as the Special Program is completed.
