Three new characters — Candace, Cyno, and Nilou

Right at the start of the livestream, we got a new trailer for the version 3.1 update which briefly showed what we can expect from the update including three new characters! These are Hydro Polearm user Candace, Electro Polearm user Cyno, and Hydro sword Nilou. All three will play an important part in the story of the update, and will be obtainable via wish banners that’ll run throughout the 3.1 version of the game.

New zone - Sumeru desert

As you would have also seen in droves during the trailer, you’ll be visiting the desert in version 3.1. Made up of vast dunes and multiple ruins of the Scarlet King’s long destroyed kingdom, you’ll have more quests and treasures to find. In addition, you’ll be fighting off the Fatui and Scaramouche — empowered with the electro archon’s gnosis — so this is sure to be a story rich update for fans of the narrative. In addition, we’ve got a new world boss with the ruin drake! Great news for those who like a bit of a challenge out in the open world.
