Genshin Impact Unveils Nod-Krai: A First Look at the Upcoming Region

2025-07-24 08:20:45

The highly anticipated region of Nod-Krai in Genshin Impact has finally been unveiled through an exclusive web event, giving players a sneak peek at what awaits them in Version 6.0. Scheduled for release on September 10, 2025, this new expansion promises fresh adventures, unique characters, and an intricate storyline tied to the enigmatic Moon Goddess.

HoYoverse has been gradually teasing details about Nod-Krai, including its factions, landscapes, and the introduction of Lunar Reactions—a new combat mechanic central to the region. Three playable characters will debut in the initial patch, each representing a distinct faction:

  • Flins: A member of the Lightkeepers, an ancient order sworn to protect Nod-Krai.
  • Lauma: A devotee of the Moon Goddess and a Frostmoon Scion.
  • Aino: A young prodigy from the whimsical Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop.

To engage players ahead of the release, HoYoverse launched a web event showcasing five major locations in Nod-Krai. Participants can earn 40 Primogems by linking their accounts and exploring the preview content. The community has already pieced together a cohesive map, revealing key areas like Paha Island, Blue Amber Lake, and Nasha Town.

Nod-Krai appears to be an archipelago, similar to Inazuma but with landmasses clustered more closely. Its exact connection to Teyvat remains unclear, though speculation places it between Fontaine, Sumeru, and the yet-unreleased Natlan. The web event highlights five zones, but the absence of the Lightkeepers' stronghold hints at future expansions.

Beta testing for Version 6.0 begins on July 30, 2025, promising more insights into Nod-Krai's lore and gameplay. The Frostmoon Scions' ties to the ancient civilization of Hyperborea suggest deeper narrative layers, while Nasha Town's prominence in trailers hints at its role as a central hub.

As the Song of the Welkin Moon unfolds over the next year, players can expect Nod-Krai to evolve with updates, new characters, and hidden secrets waiting to be uncovered. Stay tuned for more leaks and official reveals as the release date approaches!
