Genshin Impact 4.0 area expansion: Map details

According to another set of leaks, Genshin Impact 4.0 update will have a new map expansion with parts of Fontaine becoming playable. The partial availablity of the region is because the Teyvat region is huge and exploring it in one update would be a tedious task.

When will Fontaine, 4.0 update get released in Genshin Impact?

Based on the current cycle of 42 days, the update is expected to release on August 16, 2023. If HoYoverse doesn’t make any changes to the set schedule, players will be able to enjoy the update in mid August.

The livestream confirming all of these leaks will take place 10-12 days before the update gets released for people. Players can till then enjoy the leaks. However, they should wait for an official confirmation regarding them.
