Dehya and Cyno will feature in the first phase of Genshin Impact 3.5

Genshin Impact will release Dehya in the first phase of v3.5. As the first 5-Pyro character since Yoimiya, who was released in v2.0, she will share her banner time with Cyno, who will be getting his first rerun only four patches after his initial release.

Additionally, Dehya will be added to the Standard Banner from the v3.6 update, which will make her the second 5-star Pyro character besides Diluc in the permanent pool.

In the second phase of Genshin Impact 3.5, Shenhe will get her long-awaited first rerun banner alongside Kamisato Ayaka, who is also returning after nearly a year. Further down the line, Mika will also join the two 5-star Cryo characters in the second phase.

Genshin Impact 3.5 Special Program livestream codes

During the Special Program livestream, the developers dropped a few redemption codes that can be used to earn in-game items such as Primogems. Here is a list of all the codes along with their respective rewards:

1) KARU3RG6NY65 (100 Primogems, 10 Mystic Enhancement Ores)

2) 5SRC28YNNYP9 (100 Primogems, 5 Hero's Wit)

3) SB8UJ9H7NH8V (100 Primogems, 50000 Mora)

The codes given during a program are usually temporary and become invalid within 12 to 16 hours. It is best that players claim their rewards promptly so that they don't miss out on getting 300 Primogems for free. Each code can only be redeemed once, and the rewards are always sent directly to the player's account through the in-game mailing system.
