Bennett Ascends in Genshin Impact 5.0 Livestream

The anticipation for Natlan in Genshin Impact is reaching fever pitch! Hoyoverse has announced the date for the Natlan special program, "Flowers Resplendent on the Sun-Scorched Sojourn," airing this Friday at 12:00 AM (UTC-4) on Twitch and YouTube. The program promises exciting reveals, including character banners and in-game rewards.

The Bennett Surprise:

The announcement of a free Bennett character has sparked discussion. While many players anticipated a free Natlan character like Kachina, Hoyoverse has opted for Bennett instead. Although rumors suggest a Natlan connection for Bennett, this departure from the usual tradition of gifting a new region's character is noteworthy. Acquiring Bennett requires completing a world quest.

Generous Free Primogems:

The free Primogem distribution is generating significant excitement. While the initial number of free pulls fluctuated, the final count appears to be 115. Completing all Version 5.0 content will yield this amount; however, a more conservative estimate of approximately 90 free pulls is reasonable for players with less playtime.

Version 5.0's launch on August 28th coincides with Genshin Impact's 4th anniversary, leading to additional rewards. A 7-day login event will offer ten fates, 1600 Primogems, a pet, and a gadget. Combining this with daily commissions, world quests, Spiral Abyss runs, and other events, players could potentially accumulate around 18,435 Primogems (or 115 wishes).
