Bennett Shines in Genshin Impact 5.0 Livestream Preview

The excitement for Natlan in Genshin Impact is reaching fever pitch as the community gears up for the special program announcement. Mark your calendars for this Friday at 12:00 AM (UTC-4), when the live stream will be broadcast on both Twitch and YouTube. The event, titled "Flowers Resplendent on the Sun-Scorched Sojourn," promises to unveil a plethora of details about Natlan, including official banners and enticing free rewards.

The Bennett Debate: Freebie or Overkill?

One of the hottest topics surrounding the special program is the free 4-star character distribution. Contrary to expectations of receiving Kachina, the native of Natlan, Hoyoverse has opted to give away Bennett instead. This decision has sparked debate within the community, as many believed that a character from the new region would be ideal for helping players explore Natlan. Bennett, however, has a rumored connection to Natlan, making him a fitting choice despite the surprise. To claim him, players must complete a specific world quest. Meanwhile, Kachina will not be available for free, breaking from the tradition of offering a new region's character to aid in exploration.

Free Pulls Galore

The prospect of free pulls has everyone's attention. Initially, the number of pulls fluctuated between 113 and 110, but it has now stabilized at 115. By completing all the content in version 5.0, players can secure this amount. For those unable to invest as much time, around 90 free pulls remain a solid reward. With version 5.0 set to launch on August 28th, coinciding with Genshin Impact's 4th anniversary, players can look forward to additional celebrations. Hoyoverse is planning a 7-day login event that will distribute ten fates, 1600 Primogems, an unrestrained pet, and a gadget. Combined with daily commissions, world quests, Spiral Abyss runs, and other events, players can amass approximately 18,435 Primogems, translating to 115 wishes.
