Genshin Impact banner: What is the current banner & who will be next?

Thanks to the game’s rotating banner system, you can add new characters to your Genshin Impact team comps. Here are all the details you need about the current and upcoming banners in the beloved gacha game.

The current and future banners in Genshin Impact allow Travelers to obtain new characters and try out different team comps in the game. Like most gacha titles, these banners rotate regularly and can impact pick rates and the all-important tier list.

The game’s 4.8 Phase 1 will arrive on July 17, 2024, and if you’re looking to spend your hard-earned Primogems on the current or upcoming banners, we’ve got everything you need to know right here.

Updated July 15, 2024, to add banner details for version 4.8. 

What is the current Genshin Impact banner?

The Genshin Impact 4.8 phase 1 banner is ‘In the Name of Rosula’ which features the 5-star Geo character Navia. At the same time, you can also grab a copy of Nilou during her rerun in the ‘Twirling Lotus‘ banner. 

The 4-star characters you can obtain from the banners are:

• Kirara (Dendro, Sword)
• Kaveh (Dendro, Claymore)
• Ningguang (Geo, Catalyst)

When does the current Genshin Impact banner end?

The version 4.8 phase 1 banners will end on August 7, 2024, which gives Travelers plenty of time to save up Primogems and spend them on their banners.

We’ll update this section should HoYoverse extend this date further.

The Genshin Impact weapon banner is the Epitome Invocation. The 4.8 Phase 1 banner includes the following weapon rate-ups: 

5-star weapons

4-star weapons

• Xiphos’ Moonlight (Sword)

The Genshin Impact 4.8 Phase 1 weapon banner will also end on August 7, 2024, so players will have plenty of time to obtain the new set of weapons.
