Genshin Impact 3.3 events

In addition to the 'Inversion of Genesis' Archon Quest Interlude Chapter, the Genius Invokation TCG permanent gameplay mode, double rewards from a Ley Line Overflow period, and two new sets of Artifacts, we're getting four limited-time events during the 3.3 update to Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact Misty Dungeon: Realm of Sand event

Misty Dungeon: Realm of Sand starts on Friday, 9th December and ends on Monday, 19th December. You need to be Adventure Rank 20 in order to take part.

A new version of Misty Dungeon is coming in version 3.3! This time around, there will be seven trials, each with different themes.

Each trial has a different Ley Line Disorder, so you'll have to change your teams depending on the effects of these Ley Lines, and who the upcoming enemies are. Helpfully, there will be some trial characters you can choose from to help you out.

After entering the Misty Dungeon: Realm of Sand domain, you'll need to complete three challenges to collect Ancient Runes before taking on the main combat trial. While searching for Ancient Runes, you can also take on optional mechanisms and challenges to increase the Ley Line Disorders' effects, or revive and heal your team.

The rewards you can earn from the Misty Dungeon: Realm of Sand event include:

  • Primogems
  • Mora
  • Character Ascension Materials
  • Weapon Ascension Materials
  • Character EXP Materials

Genshin Impact Akitsu Kimodameshi event

Akitsu Kimodameshi starts on Thursday, 15th December and ends on Monday, 2nd January 2023. You need to be Adventure Rank 30 and have completed the 'Ritou Escape Plan' as part of the Chapter 2, Act 1 Archon quest 'The Immovable God and the Eternal Euthymia' in order to take part. If you haven't completed Itto's Story Quest, you can still take part by selecting 'Quick Start' from the main events menu.

The Akitsu Kimodameshi event consists of 'Test of Courage' challenges that are hosted by the Yashiro Commission. There are a few different challenge types according to the 3.3 livestream, but the main one highlighted has you destroying bricks by controlling a platform that a ball bounces off. Basically, if you've ever played Peggle, you'll be right at home.

Giving the Peggle formula a more Genshin-themed twist, however, is the inclusion of Elemental Reactions. Depending on what character you're using to control the platform that the ball bounces off, the ball will change its elemental type. You'll need to take advantage of this by switching to different characters throughout the challenges to clear the bricks within the time limit. You'll also get to set modifiers to make things easier.

There will also be event stories occurring throughout Akitsu Kimodameshi. Although we don't know what characters will be featured just yet, we expect an appearance from the one and Oni himself, Arataki Itto, and the Raiden Shogun or Ei, considering they are two Inazuma characters who have Banner reruns in 3.3.

As this is the main event of version 3.3, there will also be an event shop to spend the currency you earn from the Akitsu Kimodameshi challenges.

The rewards you can earn from the Akitsu Kimodameshi event include:

  • Toukabou Shigure 4-Star sword and Parasol Talcum refinement materials for it
  • Primogems
  • Mora
  • Mystic Enhancement Ore
  • Weapon Ascension Materials
  • Talent Level-Up Materials
  • Character EXP Materials
  • Crown of Insight

Genshin Impact Windtrace event

Windtrace starts on Friday, 23rd December and ends on Friday, 6th January 2023. You only need to be Adventure Rank 20 in order to take part.

The Windtrace hide-and-seek event is back - but there's a few alterations this time around.

If you've never taken part in one of these hide-and-seek events, the general gist is that there are two sides - the Rebels and the Hunter - with the Hunter's task to try and catch all of the Rebels before the time limit. The Hunter wins if they catch all the Rebels, but the Rebels win if they manage to avoid the Hunter.

For the Windtrace event in version 3.3 however, there is a new Observer mode that has been added to the Rebels side. This means if you get caught, you can still help your team by becoming invisible and using the 'Illusory Beacon' skill, which allows you to place a beacon to confuse the Hunter if they select it, obscuring their vision.

New Windward Arts have also been added for both the Rebels and the Hunter, with the net for the Hunter keeping things fair by allowing them to destroy Illusory Beacons without obscuring their vision.

As always, Windtrace is available in co-op.

The rewards you can earn from the Windtrace event include:

  • Primogems
  • Mora
  • Mystic Enhancement Ore
  • Weapon Ascension Materials
  • Character EXP Materials

Genshin Impact Across the Wilderness event

Across the Wilderness starts on Tuesday, 3rd January and ends on Friday, 13th January 2023. Youneed to be at least Adventure Rank 20, and have completed Prologue - Act 3: Song of the Dragon and Freedom in order to take part.

For Across the Wilderness in version 3.3 you have to collect Wilderness Balloons in a race event taking place across Teyvat. The more balloons you collect within the time limit, the better the rewards will be.

You'll need to select your characters carefully, utilising their exploration skills to collect as many balloons as you can. Additionally, you'll be able to use something called a 'Travel Compass' to configure your skills to give your team extra buffs like enhanced jumping abilities and increased movement speed. You'll only be able to claim one buff per challenge, however.

This event can also be played in co-op.

The rewards you can earn from the Across the Wilderness event include:

  • Primogems
  • Mora
  • Mystic Enhancement Ore
  • Talent Level-Up Materials
  • Character EXP Materials
