Genshin Impact Update 5.5: New Volcano Area Added

As the UK and many other places struggle with the lingering chill of winter, Genshin Impact's upcoming 5.5 update, "Day of the Flame's Return," promises to bring some much-needed warmth. Set to launch on March 26th, this update will introduce a thrilling new area to the Natlan region: the Great Volcano of Tollan, complete with the hidden Sacred City of Tollan built by the ancient Dragonborn. Players will have the opportunity to explore this fiery new zone and uncover the secrets of the Flamelord's Blessing.

But the heat isn't the only thing being turned up in this update. The final tribe of Natlan, the Tribe of Plenty, will make its debut, accompanied by a formidable new Saurian, the Tatankasaurus. This beast's massive build allows it to shatter enormous rocks, adding a new layer of challenge and excitement to your adventures.

**Heating Up** - While the volcano presents its own dangers, you won't have to face it alone. The update introduces two new characters to aid you on your journey. Varessa, a five-star Electro Catalyst user, unleashes powerful Electro damage, while Iansan, a four-star Electro Polearm wielder and one of Natlan's six heroes, enhances attack damage and heals allies, making her a valuable addition to any team.

Alongside these exciting additions, the "Day of the Flame's Return" update includes a new seasonal event, the Tournament of Glory in Bloom, as well as new Event Wishes, all set to debut on March 26th. Prepare to dive back into Natlan with Genshin Impact's version 5.5 and experience the heat of the Great Volcano firsthand.
