New Eridu is not the only city on alert this month. Hoyovers has confirmed that the next May 20, 2026 The long-awaited version “Luna VII” of Genshin Impact, titled «The truth between the pages of Purana». This update not only brings us back to the lands of wisdom, but also marks a historic milestone for the Lore of the game: for the first time, a member of the mysterious Witches coven It will be a playable character, just when Sumeru faces a catastrophe that calls into question everything we thought we knew about the archons.
Nicole and the coven’s “official” debut
The authority of this version of Genshin Impact falls on the long-awaited debut of Nicole, the first playable witch of the coven. Known as “the witch who reaches the heart”, Nicole enters the battlefield as a character 5 star pyro Catalyst user, specialized in an unprecedented offensive support role.
Its mechanics include:
- ELEMENTARY SKILL: Grants a global ATQ bonus (even to off-field characters) and generates a protective shield.
- Ultimate Ability: Summons an arcane projection that performs coordinated attacks based on the element of the active character.
- Exploration: His charged attack summons a Seelie that tracks nearby treasures, an invaluable utility for collectors.
Chaos in Sumeru and new faces
Genshin Impact’s narrative experience reaches a critical point with the new mission of Arconte. The Nation of Wisdom wobbles as Nahida falls into an inexplicable dream and an adversary identical to the defeated Dottore emerges from the shadows. To face this threat, players will have two additional allies:
Lohen (Cryo, 5 stars)
Subcaptain of the Knights of Favonius. He is a spear user with an aggressive style based on the management of “Exultation” and “Assure of Victoria”, optimizing his damage by fighting alongside Thaumaturgical characters.
Prune (Anemo, 4 stars)
A self-proclaimed “witch hunter” endorsed by Alice herself. Use a hammer and bells to cause multi-elemental whirlpool reactions.
Quality of life and events improvements
To ensure smooth navigation among so many disclosures, Hoyover introduces the “Guideline Notes” A Genshin Impact, a feature that summarizes the previous in-game story, and optimizes mission auto save. In addition, the reliability of the update is reinforced with varied content:
- The Witch’s Garden: A new meeting point where we will explore the interior of Nicole’s cabin, unlocking secrets weekly.
- Klee’s MiniAquelarre: A festive event that will reward Proxies with the exclusive “Magic Powered Key” weapon.
- Eden Miliastra: It is updated with sports competitions and new poses for the Manekines in photo mode.
The version that will change the course of the story
The “Luna VII” version is possibly the most important update since the Fontaine launch. Nicole’s inclusion finally opens the door to one of Teyvat’s most enigmatic groups.
Hoyover is betting heavily on the FAN SERVICE high level. We have been listening for years about the coven and Alice; Seeing Nicole finally playable is a dream come true for lovers of the Lore. In addition, the return to Sumeru with a vulnerable Nahida and a possible Dottore clone ensures that the narrative tension does not decay. Lohen appears to be the breath of fresh air (literally, by his Cryo element) that combat teams needed for new rotations. May 20 will be a long day at Teyvat.
