Genshin Impact marks its third anniversary next week, and fans' ardent hopes for a more lavish celebration compared to previous years have not come to pass. Last Friday's Version 4.1 Special Program livestream confirmed that the occasion will be marked by the return of the Daily Login Event from the last two anniversaries, despite it being poorly-received on both occasions.
The third anniversary event, called "Bathing in Flowing Moonlight", promises 10 Intertwined Fates to players who log in for seven days, plus some currencies and level-up materials. Players will also receive an in-game mail containing 1,600 Primogems (worth 10 pulls on the gacha), four fragile resin, and an exclusive commemorative pet and gadget. Fans who were hoping for a free selection among the game's standard 5-star characters are expressing disappointment: the news has drawn unfavourable comparisons to the more generous anniversary events in Honkai Impact 3rd, as well as attracting conspiracy theories that HoYoverse favours the Honkai franchise over Genshin. I guess we'll have to wait until Honkai: Star Rail turns one next April for more data on that.
The reception to Version 4.1's banner line-up has been warmer, however. HoYoverse have confirmed that recently announced husbando-bait characters Neuvillette and Wriothesley will indeed both be 5-star units debuting during Phase 1 and Phase 2 of V4.1, respectively. This means that, unusually, there'll be two new 5-stars but no new 4-stars during this update, something that hasn't happened since Version 1.3 launched in February 2021.
