Genshin Impact heats up with new volcano area added in update 5.5

By BrooklynMar 18,2025

Genshin Impact is heating things up with its upcoming 5.5 update, "Day of the Flame's Return," arriving March 26th. This update introduces the colossal Great Volcano of Tollan and its hidden, ancient city—the Sacred City of Tollan—a Dragonborn-built structure concealing the secrets of the Flamelord's Blessing.

Explore this fiery landscape and encounter the final Natlan tribe, the Tribe of Plenty, alongside a powerful new Saurian companion, Tatankasaurus, capable of shattering massive rocks.

Navigating the volcano's dangers will be easier with the addition of two new characters: Varessa, a five-star Electro Catalyst user dealing immense Electro damage, and Iansan, a four-star Electro Polearm wielder from Natlan's six heroes, boosting attack damage while healing allies.

Version 5.5 also includes a new seasonal event, "Tournament of Glory in Bloom," along with updated Event Wishes. Get ready to return to Natlan and experience the fiery thrills of Genshin Impact's 5.5 update!
