Genshin Impact 2.7's release date is May 31, 2022, with maintenance beginning at 6:00 AM (UTC+8), which is expected to end at 11:00 AM (UTC+8). Everything is subject to change, but these are the dates and times that miHoYo has already mentioned in their official announcements.

Many Travelers have eagerly been waiting for this update, so it's crucial to include several countdown clocks and other information for them to view here. Like with past updates, every region will gain access to Genshin Impact 2.7 at the same time.

Hence, they can use the same countdown clock to figure out when the update will come out, regardless of where they live.


More information and details regarding the Genshin Impact 2.7 update

Following the above Tweet's prompts will give players 20,000 Mora for free. All players need to do is just go to the event webpage in the game and share it. Besides that, that website offers players a very brief overview of what to expect from the 2.7 update, such as:

  • Featured characters with a description (Yelan, Xiao, Itto, and Shinobu)
  • The two new weapons (Aqua Simulacra and Fading Twilight)
  • Four new events

It also includes the Tweet, which consists of the release date that Travelers should remember.


Genshin Impact 2.7 maintenance countdown

The above countdown should be an accurate representation of when maintenance will begin for the next update. According to miHoYo:

"Version 2.7 update maintenance is expected to start at 05/31/2022 06:00 (UTC+8) and is expected to be completed within 5 hours."

All servers should receive the next Version Update simultaneously. Maintenance tends to last for five hours, but it can always finish earlier or later than expected. During this time, Travelers will be unable to play the game, so they should plan around that accordingly.

Genshin Impact 2.7 is expected to release on May 31, 2022, launching at 11:00 AM (UTC+8). miHoYo has also stated:

"Meanwhile, the duration of Version 2.7 is expected to be 6 weeks, and Version 2.8 is expected to be updated on 07/13/2022."

This Version Update will be 43 days long. As far as date-related news goes, that's everything that Travelers should know about the upcoming update.
