You can dive deeper into which controllers will be supported by visiting the official announcement.
What Does Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Have in Store?
Prepare to explore the southwestern expanses of Natlan, where you'll encounter a new tribe, a colossal volcano, and fresh faces. The Great Volcano of Tollan, shrouded in ancient secrets and home to a dormant sacred city, awaits your discovery. As magma stirs beneath, unravel the enigma of the "Flamelord’s Blessing" and the mystery surrounding the Little One. Your journey will introduce you to the Collective of Plenty, a tribe that values strength and fitness as a way of life.
Version 5.5 introduces two new playable characters: Varesa and Iansan. Varesa, a 5-star Electro Catalyst user, brings a unique twist by restoring Phlogiston after consuming food, making her an invaluable support outside of combat. Iansan, a 4-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan's six heroes, blends offense with support capabilities. When a teammate triggers a Nightsoul Burst, Iansan gains the Warming Up effect, enabling her to provide continuous healing.
The first phase of Version 5.5’s Event Wishes will feature Varesa and Iansan, along with a rerun of Xianyun, followed by reruns for Xilonen and Venti. Explore all these exciting additions below.
