Notably, this update not only brings the French-inspired Fontaine nation surrounded by water but also marks Genshin Impact’s first-ever underwater adventure. Additionally, players on PlayStation consoles can expect improved loading times and graphics enhancements. The update aims to deliver various quality-of-life improvements across all platforms.
While Fontaine will technically be accessible to players who complete early-game Mondstadt quests, HoYoverse recommends that players also fulfill specific story requirements to fully immerse themselves in the Fontaine experience. The 4.0 update promises to offer Genshin Impact enthusiasts a wealth of new content, thrilling challenges, and a vibrant new region to explore.
