What time does Genshin Impact 5.2 release?
Genshin Impact’s 5.2 patch is coming soon, bringing new characters and story with it. This patch will conclude the Natlan archon quest, as well as introduce the two new playable characters, Chasca and Ororon.
Below, we explain when Genshin Impact maintenance starts and ends, alongside the release time of patch 5.2. We’ve also added some details about what to expect from Genshin Impact version 5.2.
What time does Genshin Impact go down for maintenance?
Genshin Impact will go down for maintenance on Tuesday, Nov. 19, or Wednesday, Nov. 20 (depending on your time zone), at the following times and will be unavailable for approximately five hours:
- Nov. 19 at 2 p.m. PST for the west coast of North America
- Nov. 19 at 5 p.m. EST for the east coast of North America
- Nov. 19 at 10 p.m. GMT for the U.K.
- Nov. 19 at 11 p.m. CET for western Europe/Paris
- Nov. 20 at 7 a.m. JST for Japan/Tokyo
- Nov. 20 at 9 a.m. AEDT for Australia/Sydney
Make sure to burn your resin before maintenance starts, if you wanted to, but remember that the new battle pass will launch after the patch goes live, so you may want to hold on to some of it.
What time does Genshin Impact version 5.2 start?
Genshin Impact should come back from maintenance with the 5.2 version at the following times:
- Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. PST for the west coast of North America
- Nov. 19 at 10 p.m. EST for the east coast of North America
- Nov. 20 at 3 a.m. GMT for the U.K.
- Nov. 20 at 4 a.m. CET for western Europe/Paris
- Nov. 20 at 12 p.m. JST for Japan/Tokyo
- Nov. 20 at 2 p.m. AEDT for Australia/Sydney
The servers may come up early or late, depending on how maintenance goes, but these are the approximate times 5.2 should go live. Usually Hoyoverse is pretty good by abiding by maintenance times. We don’t usually get extended maintenance, but it does end early sometimes!
What’s new in Genshin Impact version 5.2?
Version 5.2 will wrap up the Natlan archon quests, finally showing us the fate of Mauvika, the Pyro Gnosis, and the region of Natlan. Along that, we’ll get two new playable characters. The first is Chasca, an Anemo five-star bow-user who has already played a large role in the archon quests. A four-star Electro bow character, Ororon, will also make his playable debut. There’ll also be new areas to explore, which means new rewards and more Pyroculus to find.
The flagship event of this patch, Iktomi Spiritseeking Scrolls, will reward you with a limited-time weapon for taking part in its mix of combat, puzzles, and co-op minigames.
