Genshin Impact 7.2 launches November 3 with Mitya

Genshin Impact version 7.2 arrives on November 3, 2026, at 10:00 PM ET. The update introduces Mitya, a new Electro Catalyst user, alongside a rerun of the Hydro Sword character Furina. The four-star Electro Sword wielder Valeriy will also be available during the first half of the patch.

Players can expect two new explorable regions and a continuation of the Archon Quest storyline. The second half of the update will feature reruns of two additional five-star characters, though specific names were not detailed.

Maintenance for the new version is scheduled to run for approximately five hours before the update goes live. Following Genshin Impact's standard six-week version cycle, players will have access to the new content immediately after servers come back online.

The 7.2 update continues the game's regular content cadence, offering fresh story progression and character acquisition opportunities for both new and returning players.
