Sumeru still has many secrets to uncover, but a well-known festival is about to kick off in another part of the world. With patch 3.4, the Lantern Festival is back in Genshin Impact. Two new characters invite themselves to the party, but in Liyue it is the mini-games that prevail at this time. Perhaps the opportunity to expand your team by convincing one of the heroes from this city.
