Genshin Impact Update 5.4: 9,350 Free Primogems & New 5-Star Character
Genshin Impact Update 5.4 is bringing players a generous 9,350 free Primogems – enough for approximately 58 wishes on the gacha banners! This substantial amount makes acquiring new characters, including the highly anticipated 5-star Inazuma unit, Yumizuki Mizuki, significantly more attainable.
The upcoming update introduces Yumizuki Mizuki, a 5-star character from the Inazuma region. Her arrival fuels speculation about a return to the Electro nation's storyline. While HoYoverse hasn't revealed her official release date, she's expected to feature in the first banner cycle of Version 5.4, aligning with the usual pattern of showcasing new 5-star characters prominently. Leaks suggest she'll be an Anemo support character, offering broad synergy with various team compositions.
Acquiring Primogems is facilitated by readily available in-game tasks. Daily Commissions, for example, provide a consistent stream of Primogems, supplementing the substantial free offering of Update 5.4. This influx of free currency ensures players have ample opportunities to summon characters without significant monetary investment, despite the gacha system being HoYoverse's primary revenue model. The 10-wish pity system further enhances the chances of obtaining at least five or six new 4-star characters.
Many players anticipate entering Update 5.4 with a surplus of Primogems, thanks to the generous rewards distributed during the Lantern Rite Festival in Version 5.3. These, combined with the 9,350 Primogems from Update 5.4, significantly increase the likelihood of successfully summoning Yumizuki Mizuki and other desirable characters. The ease of earning Primogems through daily tasks makes the gacha system more accessible for free-to-play players.
