A few hours ago, the developers of Genshin Impact officially revealed the livestream dates of patch 2.7. The 2.7 Special Program will finally confirm a lot of takes that fans have already gleaned from leaks.

Fans are also hoping that the developers will disclose more official news about Sumeru and Sumeru-based characters. This article will explain everything players need to know about the patch 2.7 livestream of Genshin Impact.


Genshin Impact patch 2.7 livestream time and where to watch

The 2.7 Special Program is scheduled to premiere on the official Twitch channel of Genshin Impact on May 20, 2022. The livestream is scheduled to begin at 8 AM (UTC-4). Converting the mentioned time to your local time zone can be pretty confusing for some readers, so a universal countdown has been added for the livestream.

If the heading of the countdown meter changes from "2.7 Special Program begins in" to "2.7 Special Program has already begun,” this implies that the livestream is underway.

Players do not need to worry about missing the livestream action, as Genshin Impact's official YouTube channel will re-broadcast the livestream a few hours later.
