Genshin Impact 4.0 update will be revealed soon and will supposedly release around the third week of August 2023. HoYoverse recently shared a Caesar cipher on their page, leaving fans head-scratching with no extra information.
In a recent tweet from the official page of Genshin Impact, gibberish writing was posted that turned out to be a Caesar cipher. However, decrypting the code didn’t mean much, as well as it remained cryptic. Leading fans to believe HoYoverse might be up to something big other than just the update.
On the other hand, there are possibilities that it could be the release date of the upcoming update for the RPG. We have constructed this article with all the options the cipher could offer the fans.
What does the Genshin Impact cipher on Twitter mean?
A Caesar Cipher is one of the earliest forms of encryption that could be attained by shifting alphabets in a word by specific steps. In Genshin Impact’s latest tweet, the same technique has been used, and a phrase was created:
fjhiupofojof QBSJT OZD UPLZP UBJQFJ
This might look gibberish on regular observation, but upon shifting by 25 steps. The phrase is unlocked from the cipher, which spells, “eightonenine PARIS NYC TOKYO TAIPEI” which doesn’t mean much. It could be possible that something might be released on August 19 (8/19) to specific cities around the globe. The towns are Paris (France), New York (USA), Tokyo (Japan), and Taipei (Taiwan).
While people might believe it could be an anime reveal or release date for the next update, it cannot be said if they are true. However, the chances of it being a release date might be plausible as a special reveal event is scheduled for August 4, 2023. Here, players might learn the release date for the next Genshin Impact update.
Alternatively, a new real-life event could be hosted in these cities, like their recent Summer Festival. But again, the chances of that happening are slim, as HoYoverse recently concluded their Summer Festival and might do one after a while. Thus, the cryptic date could mean something other than a release or event date. The last possibility could be an anime, yet nothing is known or has been leaked earlier about it.
Fans feel confused by the cryptic message from HoYoverse and have reacted in hilarious ways. Few others referred to Disney’s Gravity Falls show, which was all about mysteries. Rest criticized the post, saying, “I thought the account was having a seizure.” Nonetheless, it isn’t apparent to many as they had done nothing like this before.
That’s all we could gather to inform you about the message posted on the official Genshin Impact Twitter account. If you wish to get more updates from us, follow us. Also, if you want to read more articles from us, click here to visit our main section.
