Each recent Special Program gives away three temporary Redeem Codes that awards players with 300 Primogems in total. Entering them is easy, but players won't know what the codes are until the livestream happens.


Yae Miko

Everything about Yae Miko has already been leaked. The above YouTube video does a good job showcasing her abilities in a normal setting, which helps players get a good idea of how she works as a unit. The gameplay footage shown here will likely be similar to what players can see in the upcoming Special Program.

  • Thoma

The first weapon banner will feature:

  • Kagura's Verity
  • Primordial Jade Cutter
  • Eye of Perception

Other banners aren't confirmed. Most recent leaks point to the Raiden Shogun and Kokomi having reruns.

New enemies

There are three new enemies in Genshin Impact 2.5 that are intended to have anti-shield properties. They are:

They will appear in the upcoming Spiral Abyss, along with a few select locations on Teyvat.


New weekly boss

Genshin Impact 2.5 leaks reveal there will be another Raiden Shogun boss. This time, it will be a weekly boss featuring a different form from what players saw in the past. One of the most noteworthy aspects about this new boss is that she has an attack that will instantly defeat a character, regardless of any shields of their HP.
