Apart from the characters, the addition of a new region is probably the most exciting thing players are looking forward to. Previous Genshin Impact updates have introduced the famous islands of Inazuma, and fans were expecting a small content drought for at least a couple of updates. Players can expect a new region by the name Chasm to arrive alongside a brand-new Genshin Impact character named Kamisato Ayato.

Each Genshin Impact has its beta phase which usually includes all the content that players will face in the upcoming updates and the Genshin Impact 2.6 beta has started at the same time Genshin Impact Version 2.5 joined the live servers. Apart from the new character Yae Miko, the 2.5 Livestream event has teased a new region named Chasm. Over the past couple of days multiple screenshots have leaked interesting scenes from the new region.

However, a recent leak posted on the Genshin Impact Leaks stands out as it shows a mysterious region that seems to be placed upside-down. This would be the first time for miHoYo to include such an unnatural map design and an upcoming quest will most likely reveal the story behind this phenomenon.

According to multiple leaks, Chasm will have an interesting radial design with six new teleport points including a new Statue of The Seven. The arrival of this region has been rumored for many months since its name has always been displayed on the current map of Liyue. Even though miHoYo keeps adding new explorable terrain with each new update, multiple leaks have already revealed that another major nation by the name Sumeru could be added in future updates. The story that revolves around Chasm will apparently serve as an introduction to the nation of Sumeru.

It’s also stated that Sumeru could be similar to the islands of Inazuma which were introduced in September 2021. Each nation in the game revolves around its own respective Archon and its divine ideals which are order, freedom, justice, etc. In the case of Sumeru, the God of Wisdom rules in the pursuit of all knowledge. Even though he is one of the rare leaders whose identity hasn’t been revealed yet, it is well known that Sumeru’s Archon is the youngest out of the seven Genshin Impact Archons.

Genshin Impact is available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5. A Switch version is currently in development.
