During the Genshin Impact Special Program, HoYoverse announced the latest details regarding the latest update coming to the Genshin Impact game. Version 5.4, titled Moonlight Amidst Dreams, will be arriving on February 12th, 2025, for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
In this version update, players return to Inazuma, welcoming the return of the centuries-old Mikawa Flower Festival, where humans and yo-kai work together to present exciting mini-games, with a special appearance by the Raiden Shogun.
Genshin Impact Celebrates the Mikawa Flower Festival
The Mikawa Flower Festival, a symbol of the bond between humans and youkai, returns with more reunions, challenges, and rewards for all to cherish and savor the moment. Raiden Shogun will also attend the gathering, and she seems to be investigating a mysterious nightmare.
The minigames at the festival include A Little Fox’s Daydream, where players must guide a little fox through its dreamscapes, collecting Fried Tofu and reaching its destination. There is also Bunshin Phantasm, where Sayu’s Muji-Muji Daruma will mimic the player’s actions from the previous round. Playing these minigames will allow you to collect festival stamps, and exchange them for rewards, including a new 4-star polearm, Tamayuratei no Ohanashi.
Genshin Impact Version 5.4 Characters
A new character will be added to the roster, and it is the dedicated clinical psychologist and major shareholder of the Aisa Bathhouse, Yumemizuki Mizuki, an Anemo Catalyst user.
In combat, her Dreamdrifter state, activated by her Elemental Skill, is one of her key combat features. While in this state, she deals AoE Anemo DMG and further enhances her team’s Swirl DMG when nearby party members hit opponents with Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, or Electro attacks.
Her Elemental Burst summons a Mini Baku that creates Yumemi Style Special Snacks. When party members with less than 70% HP pick up these Snacks, they recover HP. If their HP is above 70%, the Snacks explode instead, dealing AoE Anemo DMG. Additionally, if Mizuki is in the party, using healing food items has a chance to restore an extra 30% HP to all characters.
Mizuki will be available in the first half of banners, alongside a rerun for Sigewinne. And then, the second half will have Furina and Wriothesley reruns, the latter of whom players have been waiting for quite a while to get.
Genshin Impact Version 5.4 Improvements
To make adventuring and combat easier, this update also introduces several system optimizations. Players can now set Level-Up Plans for their characters in the Training Guide. Once these goals are set, the required materials and their sources will be clearly displayed.
The filter systems for both Characters and Weapons have also been streamlined, reducing the steps needed to navigate the interfaces. Lastly, an Auto Add button has been added to the Weapon Refinement interface to speed up the process.
