We are at the end of the Fontaine arc, and with that, we are finally moving towards the next Act in Genshin Impact's story, the "Incandescent Ode of Ressurection," the fifth Act featuring the sixth nation, Natlan—the Nation of War, and Nation of Pyro.

The version 5.0 update, "Flowers Resplendent on the Sun-Scorched Sojourn," will feature the brand new region, Natlan, three of the six native tribes of Natlan, a plethora of new characters, weapons, activities, events, and new gameplay mechanics like transforming into the different Natlan's Saurians, along with a multitude of other such things.
