The latest 3.0 update will launch in Genshin Impact at 11 am (UTC+8) on August 24, 2022. The pre-installation feature has also been added so fans can download the heavy content beforehand for a smooth experience when the update launches.

The latest patch will be known as "The Morn a Thousand Roses Brings." It will partially unlock Sumeru for exploration, and players will be able to spend Primogems to roll for either Tighnari or Zhongli from their rate-up banners. Tighnari is a new 5-star from Sumeru, while this is the second rerun for Zhongli. Collei will also debut as one of the 4-stars in the first half.

Here is everything players need to know about the 3.0 release time and date for all regions.
