Genshin Impact is scheduled to enter the second half of the Inazuma storyline right after the end of the current Yoimiya banner. The stakes are high, as the Traveler is marked by the Electro Archon and the Vision Hunt Decree.

Aside from allying with the Crux fleet and the Sangonomiya Resistance, perhaps there is more to the story than just internal war and conflicts.

Version 2.0 of Genshin Impact saw the arrival of the long-awaited region, Inazuma. However, miHoYo decided to save the other parts of the nation for later.

Version 2.1 will see two more regions getting added to the map, which Mihoyo previously teased. These are Watatsumi Island and Seirai Island.

In a recent tweet, the developer announced a special program for 2.1, which will air live on August 20. The showcase will be streamed on both the official Twitch and YouTube channels in Chinese and English.

miHoYo usually holds a special showcase before any significant updates. The community got to see an in-depth live stream of Inazuma, its characters, and other upcoming sandbox features days before 2.0 became online.

With 2.1 approaching, fans can look forward to more gameplay changes alongside banners, events, enemies, and characters. The developer's live showcase on August 20 will further reveal everything surrounding the new features and regions.

The 2.0 update was Genshin Impact's most significant yet, leading miHoYo to simultaneously showcase on their official Twitch channel and Bilibili. However, the 2.1 live streams can be viewed in Chinese and English on separate platforms, with a time gap in between.
