The upcoming Lantern Rite for Genshin Impact 2.4 is going to be giving away a lot of free items. From skins to primogems, players can expect the Liyue festival to be even bigger than last year. In addition, it will also mark the first rerun of characters like Ganyu and Xiao.
Based on numerous leaks from reputed sources, Genshin Impact 2.4 will give away free skin and a 4-star Liyue character of choice. Naturally, like other events, players can exchange currencies and get free items once the Lantern Rite kicks off.
Players can choose Yun Jin or any one of the 4-star Liyue characters in Genshin Impact 2.4 Lantern Rite
Alongside the upcoming 5-star characters in Genshin Impact 2.4, it seems that MiHoYo is giving the players a chance to score a double once again. Last year's Lantern Rite also gave a choice over any one of the 4-star Liyue units.
However, there is more to the Liyue roster after a year, with a brand new face coming with the update. Players can score a much-needed constellation on any one of their favorite and most-used characters, or simply pick Yun Jin.
The importance of constellations on a 4-star character has no bounds. With supporting characters like Xinqiu, Xiangling, and Xinyan, having constellations up to 4 or 6 can help a player in the long run.
On the other hand, DPS characters such as Ninguang, Yanfei, Beidou, and Chongyun can make up for their constellations if they lack ideal weapons or artifacts. The free 4-star from Genshin Impact 2.4 will help players by filling the void with good support and DPS.
With a total of four banners coming in 2.4, the free characters will be a huge bonus for new players and veterans alike. Shops for the upcoming Lantern Rite will include three main currencies. However, items within the shop will include:
- 6 types of launchable fireworks.
- 9 special recipes for furniture
- 3-star ascension gem fragments and talent books from Liyue
- 1x Crown of Insight
- Mora and Hero's Wit
The event itself is rumored to have a Waverider activity similar to 1.6, fireworks creation, a boss domain, and much more.
Genshin Impact 2.4 will go live on January 2022 following scheduled maintenance.
