Genshin Impact Version 3.1 special program & trailers

The special program for Genshin Impact’s new version 3.1 update premiered on the official Twitch channel on September 16, 2022. As always, the special program featured details about new game content and developments. There were also redemption codes and other goodies available for Travelers to claim.

You can watch the replay of the special program, and the trailers for Genshin Impact Version 3.1, below.

What’s new in Genshin Impact Version 3.1?

Three new characters: Cyno, Nilou, Candace

Genshin Impact Version 3.1 is bringing three new characters into the fray: Cyno, Nilou, and Candace. All of them hail from the new desert regions of Sumeru, boasting a mix of elements and weapon types to play around with.

Cyno is a five-star Electro Polearm who plays very similarly to Raiden Shogun. While he does have a dash, he’s all about buffing himself up and then smashing that Elemental Burst for a mega power-up that lasts up to 18 seconds.

Nilou is the second five-star, this time a Hydro Sword, who introduces a new Bloom mechanic. Combining amazingly with Dendro by instantly proccing the reaction between the two elements, the dancer can pirouette around the battlefield slicing and dicing enemies, before dropping a big lotus as part of her Elemental Burst.

Finally, Candace is a four-star Hydro Polearm — but you might first notice her shield. She uses said shield to parry attacks, while her Elemental Skill is great for solo travelers as it imbues ally attacks with Hydro and also unleashes a ripple if you swap between characters.

Nilou will be a perfect addition to any Dendro team in the second phase of Version 3.1.

HoYoverse has officially revealed the Genshin Impact Version 3.1 banners, with Cyno, Candace, and Venti appearing in Phase 1, while Nilou and Albedo will appear later in Phase 2. 

New Sumeru desert area added

Players got the chance to dip their toes into Sumeru and its lush forests for the first time in Version 3.0. Now we’ll get to see another side of the nation with its harsh deserts in Version 3.1 with the Hypostyle Desert, Land of Lower Setekh, and Land of Upper Setekh.

It’s a fairly big area on the western side of the nation with ruins to explore and a wide expanse of… orange nothingness. There are plenty of new foes lurking around though, so watch out.

New enemies lurking in Sumeru

Speaking of said enemies, there’s new Primal Constructs and Eremite mobs to farm in Genshin Impact Version 3.1, which you will encounter all across the deserts.

However boss-wise there’s two new enemies in Genshin Impact Version 3.1. The Aeonblight Drake is a dragon-shaped combat machine, dropping the Perpetual Caliber ascension material. Be sure to target its cores to immobilize it and also bring various elemental types as it gains resistances to the main element you damage it with.

Second is the Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network — a mouthful of a name to start, and a big mass of machinery to conquer. Much like the Perpetual Mechanical Array, you have to destroy its extremities and expose the core. Bring some Electro too as you’ll need it to cancel its invisibility state.

New Enemies

Aeonblight Drake

  • This dragon-shaped combat machine is a being that inspires fear, much like the lord who once ruled these vast lands.
  • This machine has even greater abilities than the Ruin Drake, being able to attack from the air and on the ground. Can periodically release a dangerous torrent of energy during combat and increase its own Elemental RES against the previous main type of Elemental DMG it suffered. Take this opportunity to attack their cores, and you may be able to immobilize this creature…
  • Located at Ardravi Valley.

Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network

  • This ancient aggregation of machinery hails from the desert and has quirks that modern-day civilizations cannot comprehend.
  • In battle, the Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network will fire its components out while its core enters an “invisible” state that hides it and increases its RES. Use Catalyze reactions to strike this core, or use Electro attacks on it during such times as the fired components have been destroyed and need to recover to cancel this invisibility.
  • Located at Hypostyle Desert.

Primal Construct: Prospector, Primal Construct: Reshaper, and Primal Construct: Repulsor

  • These ancient machines, which come from the desert, are quite distinct from the Ruin Machines.
  • In combat, these Primal Constructs will fire their components out while their cores enter an “invisible” state that hides them and increases their RES. Use Catalyze reactions to strike these cores or use Electro attacks on them during such times as the fired components have been destroyed and need to recover to cancel this invisibility.

Eremite Stone Enchanter and Eremite Galehunter

  • Warriors that may be found in one of the many scattered mercenary groups that hail from the desert.
  • They will unleash the ominous spirit contained within their body to fight alongside them after taking a certain amount of damage. This will cause them to enter an Infused Form. Defeat these spirits and they will enter a weakened state for a fixed amount of time thereafter.

In addition, the Floating Anemo Fungus, Whirling Pyro Fungus, Stretchy Electro Fungus, and Grounded Geoshroom will be added.
