As mentioned above, several new changes are coming to Genshin Impact in the upcoming version 5.7, set to go live onJune 18, 2025. The latest iteration of the Developers Discussion, which was released on June 3, has covered all such optimizations, and we have listed them all below:
1. Artifact Loadout
Starting from version 5.7, players will be able to create and manage up to two Artifact loadouts for each of their characters and freely switch between them. They can create such presets with different Artifact sets and pieces of their choosing, and use the upcoming Fast Equip option to manage them. This would be especially useful for characters with multiple viable builds, as it will eliminate the need for players to manually switch every single Artifact piece when they wish to swap builds.
It is expected that the method to create a loadout would be quite intuitive and require players to pick the desired Affixes and Artifact sets to begin. Additionally, the developers will also add a Check Alternatives feature to this gimmick that will allow fans to compare Artifact stats then and there.
2. Spiral Abyss
HoYoverse has announced that a much-requested feature will be added to the Spiral Abyss game mode, which will allow players to reattempt the previous chamber. This can be quite useful as previously, Travelers were required to replay the entire floor in case they missed out on the Abyssal Stars of a particular chamber.
Additionally, it has been revealed that the Spiral Abyss will be optimized to automatically provide the rewards after completing Floor 12. It will make the experience simpler for players by eliminating the need to manually claim rewards.
3. Character Role Explanation
The Developer Discussion revealed that a new Character Role option will be added to the Character Trials and Talent pages from version 5.7. It will provide fans with an understanding of the character’s recommended role in a team composition and how to make use of their skills.
Additionally, HoYoverse will optimize the character Talent level-up experience. Players will be able to continuously upgrade the Talents without needing to back off as long as they have the required resources.
4. Fragile and Transient Resin Support
HoYoverse has announced that players will be able to directly use Fragile and Transient Resin during domains and challenges to get rewards starting from the 5.7 update. Using any of these Resin types, which are worth 60 normal Resin, will provide 3x rewards.
5. Tracking for Ley Line Outcrop
Another QoL optimization coming to Genshin Impact pertains to the Ley Line Outcrops that offer Mora and other resources. While currently these outcrops can only be located through the map, from version 5.7, they will show up in the Adventurer’s Handbook’s enemies section as well. Moreover, it will also have a region filter for convenience.
Moreover, the Developers Discussion has revealed that the Adventurer’s Handbooks will begin to showcase the enemy traits, weaknesses, and more as well, starting from the next patch.
6. Chat Optimization
HoYoverse will also be improving upon the existing chat feature to make it so that Travelers can mention specific players via their usernames and search for particular texts in their chats instead of scrolling aimlessly, trying to find something. This would be a considerable step towards improving the game’s only communication channel.
Furthermore, a new emoji management system will also be introduced to chat, where fans can mark some of their widely used emojis as favorites. It will allow them to manage their favorite emojis for quick usage while also providing the option to hide the ones that are barely used.
7. Resource Management
Starting from version 5.7, HoYoverse will allow players to either fully download all the resources of an update or only download the basic ones. While the former option would consist of all the new additions, the latter would not include the resource packs for certain Archon Quests, Story Quests, and more. This option would considerably reduce the update size and aims to reduce the burden on fans who play the game on devices with less storage.
It is important to note that those who download the basic resource can still engage in the missing quests, however, they will have to download the content before beginning.
