Genshin Impact will currently enter the second phase of the patch 3.1 update. With the current update running on a five-week schedule, the developers will present the 3.2 livestream earlier than players think.

While HoYoverse officials have not made any announcements about the Special Program yet, calculated predictions can be made based on the pattern established by previous livestreams. Considering update 3.2 is scheduled to be rolled out on November 2, 2022, — as well as the two factors mentioned earlier — one can expect the Version 3.2 livestream on October 21, 2022, at 08:00 am (UTC-4).

Latest leaks have also confirmed that Nahida and Layla will debut in the first half of the new patch. She is a 5-star Dendro Catalyst and also amassed a pretty solid fanbase before her debut.
