Genshin Impact 5.2 leaks hint at an update you didn’t even know you needed

A set of new Genshin Impact 5.2 leaks indicate that the patch will have a QOL (quality-of-life) update that players do not know they need but is still welcome in the long run as the title continues to expand. The action RPG by developer HoYoverse has just entered version 5.1, meaning the leaks about version 5.2 are still a few weeks away from being officially revealed, but a large number of them have been shared as the beta tests for the updates are underway. Leaks highlighted the Chasca and Ororon gameplay kits Genshin Impact 5.2, for example.

While the new character kits tend to occupy the majority of the spotlight, leaks also highlight other new additions in patches. In version 5.2, which is confirmed to not have new Archon quests, the update will still have new Natlan map areas for players to explore, according to rumors. They also mention that several events will compose the six-week patch, meaning players will still have some activities to participate in, even if they are not involved in the main story quests. There will also be new weapons in Genshin Impact 5.2, according to leaks, but now new rumors have emerged.

The new update to the aforementioned items also seems to go hand-in-hand with other leaks. One of them, which is also shared on RedditSays that Treasure Compasses will now highlight sealies and other types of challenges on the mini map. This will allow players to better see what other secrets of the map they can participate in other than the treasures themselves.

Over the past year, HoYoverse has invested heavily in quality-of-life optimizations for some of its games, so the new leaks come with a higher sense of credibility. Nevertheless, they should be considered with caution, as leaks are always susceptible to being false, incomplete or subject to change before release. While version 5.2 won’t feature new main story quests, players will apparently have their hands full of content to play through Genshin Impact.
