Genshin Impact released a new event called "Labyrinth Warriors" on October 21. As the name implied, the event consists of a labyrinth-like domain with multiple floors and rooms. Players can explore the domain, defeating enemies and collecting hidden treasure chests.

The Labyrinth Warriors features two Genshin Impact characters in the event storyline: Tartaglia and Xinyan. These two characters will accompany players to enter the domain and fight enemies using various buffs from Shiki Taisho.

By completing the events, gamers can obtain rewards from the Martial Trials and Event Shop. These include Primogems, ascension materials, Mora, and a four-star character, Xinyan.

Once you enter the domain and choose a stage, the game will ask you to create two teams and choose three Shikifuda. The "Combat" party will be your initial party to fight enemies in the chamber while the "Support" party is a substitute team where you can switch to any character you want later in the domain.

For the Shikifuda, you can choose three out of nine different ones. These charms are akin to buffs for the characters in the team. Note that you cannot change the Shikifuda after you start the challenge.


3) Complete the trial
