As always, there are two Banner phases and new time-limited events in the latest update, with

We also got details of a new type of Banner: Chronicled Wish.

Below, you can find out the 4.5 release date and time, who the returning characters are, and
what the 4.5 Banners and events schedule is for the upcoming patch.

Genshin Impact 4.5 release date and time

Genshin Impact 4.5 will release on Wednesday 13th March. It should follow the usual
maintenance schedule for new updates, with 4.5 releasing at 3am (GMT). Due to time zone
differences, 4.5 releases in the United States on Tuesday 12th March at 7pm (PT).

For other time zones, the Genshin Impact 4.5 release date and time is:

East Coast US: Tuesday 12th March, 10pm (ET)

West Coast US: Tuesday 12th March, 7pm (PT)

Japan: Wednesday 13th March, 12pm (JST)
Europe: Wednesday 13th March, 4am (CET)
UK: Wednesday 13th March, 3am (GMT)

As this is only an approximate time for how long the servers are down, you might be able to play
the 4.5 patch a little before or after the times above - although previous update estimates have
been fairly accurate.

Genshin Impact 4.5 Banners

The version 4.5 Banners debut new 5-Star character Chiori. There are no new 4-Star characters
in version 4.5, but there is a new type of Banner being introduced: Chronicled Wish. For more
details, check our our Chronicled Wish Banner explainer.

Sticking to the regular event Banners, Phase 1 of the 4.5 Banner schedule begins with new Geo
5-Star Chiori, featured in her Of Silken Clouds Woven Banner, and returning Geo 5-Star Itto
featured in his Oni's Royale Banner.

As usual, the 4.5 Phase 1 Banners run alongside each other, and should be available from
Wednesday 13th March until Wednesday 3rd April.

In Phase 2 of the 4.5 Banner schedule we have returning Anemo 5-Star Kazuha's Leaves in the
Wind Banner and returning Hydro 5-Star Neuvillette's Decree of the Deeps Banner.

These Phase 2 Banners should run from Wednesday 3rd April until Tuesday 23rd April - the day
before the expected release date of the 4.6 update.

In summary, all of the new characters and returning 5-Star characters you can Wish on during
4.5 in Genshin Impact are:

Chiori (Of Silken Clouds Woven Banner - Phase 1): New 5-Star Geo character who uses a
sword.
Itto (Oni's Royale Banner - Phase 1): Returning 5-Star Geo character who uses a claymore.
Kazuha (Leaves in the Wind Banner - Phase 2): Returning 5-Star Anemo character who
uses a sword.
Neuvillette (Decree of the Deeps Banner - Phase 2): Returning 5-Star Hydro character who
uses a catalyst.

There will also be a new weapon in Phase 1 of the version 4.5 weapon Banner: the 5-Star Uraku
Misugiri sword, Chiori's signature.

To keep up to date with who the boosted 4-Star characters and weapons will be, and all other
Banner changes (including the new Chronicled Wish Banner), check out our regularly updated
Banner schedule page.

Version 4.5 with Chiori is nearly here, but in the mean time during Version 4.4, you can unlock the
Rainjade Oblation for rewards. If you're still exploring the Hydro nation, our Fontaine guide can
help with Fontaine's Reputation and the Fountain of Lucine, and you can also redeem new codes
for Primogems, and check out our regularly updated tier list. You need luck from the Pity and
50/50 systems to Wish with Fate for characters on Banners, and you always need the right
Adventure Rank for events. Elsewhere, we have tips and tricks for beginners, and Dendroculus
locations.

Genshin Impact 4.5 events

The Genshin Impact 4.5 update includes:

New Chronicled Wish Banner.

Chiori's first Story Quest.
Lynette Hangout Quest (Fateometer reward).
Training Guide feature.
Genius Invokation TCG Update (new cards, events, and challenges).
Leyline Overflow event.
More system optimisations (like viewing talent upgrade materials from the character menu).

In addition to this content, we're getting the usual four events during 4.5 Here's everything we
know about every time-limited event in Genshin Impact 4.5:

Alchemical Ascension

We return to Mondstadt for the main event in version 4.5, as Lisa opens a potion shop that you
get to run. This is similar to other management sim minigames that Genshin has had. This time,
you can also complete requests from familiar characters to make the event easier and earn more
rewards, like a new 4-Star polearm weapon, The Dialogues of the Desert Sages.

Feline Fortress Furrdyssey

Cyno would be a big fan of the event name, but ignoring the questionable spelling for now,
Feline Fortress Furrdyssey actually looks like another manage sim-type minigame. Wanting a
break from all their adventuring, the Traveler and Paimon return to Mondstadt to set up homes
for cats and feed them in order to eventually play with the cats.

If all of the cats are befriended, a "special friend" will show up.

Rolling Crossfire

Rolling Crossfire takes place in Fontaine, and is started by speaking with two guards, one of
which is a genius, naturally. This guard gives you a remote canon, and you have to use this
canon in Rolling Crossfire to hold off an endless barrage of Slime enemies. It looks like a fun take
on Space Invaders, but with a Genshin twist, as you can use Elemental Reactions to get more
points, and pick up power-ups from the field.

The Great Fayz Reaction Debate

Fayz returns for another combat event in The Great Fayz Reaction Debate. This time you can
manipulate time after using a Skill, as if you don't move after using a Skill, everything freezes,
and you can take pictures while in this state. As for the rest of the combat, you'll accumulate
Phase Force while fighting that can help you complete the challenges for more rewards.

Hope you have fun during version 4.5!
