Spiral Abyss is the current end-game in Genshin Impact, thus receiving much attention from veterans and new players. The first Spiral Abyss adjustment is a real-time completion progress for the challenge quests.

As one can see from the image above, the floor's objective is a Time Trial Challenge. If the challenge time has exceeded the target limit, the target will be shown in gray to remind players that the target has not been reached.

The second abyss optimization is the opponents' detail. At each new challenge floor, the developer added the ability to view the details of the enemies on the next floor. As a result, Genshin Impact players no longer have to leave the challenge page to look up the enemies' lineup.


2) Shortcut Wheel Customization

As one can see from the current Shortcut Wheel, the choices are limited, and Travelers can't customize it as they want, making this function overlooked by many players.


3) Map Interface Optimization

The most awaited optimization has finally been added to Genshin Impact version 2.4. As the game version is updated and the map content is expanded upon, the developers took advice from the community to add an additional map function to the game.

After the 2.4 update, players can find different area tabs on the right side of the map interface. This function will make it easier to select and jump to the areas they want to view. Most of all, gamers no longer need to click and drag long distances across the map.


4) New Crafting and Forging Interface

The Genshin Impact developers also took the opportunity to change the original interface display mode on the Crafting Bench into an icon display. This change has been made so players can find the items they need and accomplish tasks more quickly.
