A set of new leaks about Genshin Impact 5.2 indicate that, despite the lack of new Archon quests in the area with the patch, Natlan will see some major development over the update. Version 5.2 is the next major patch for HoYoverse’s action RPG. Two new Natlan characters have been confirmed to be playable with the update, although the content should not revolve around the Nation of Pyro. The developer has already confirmed that Archon Quests will take a break in version 5.1, the same patch that introduced Xilonen in Genshin Impactand return in version 5.3.
As such, it is expected that version 5.2 will rely heavily on limited-time events and other activities for players to occupy their time during the six-week period that these patches normally last. The beta tests for the update have started and many details have been leaked so far. This includes a possible return to Dragonspine for the flagship event, new engame activities to challenge, and the possible character banners in Genshin Impact 5.2, which hints at a long-awaited rerun for albedo. While the narrative focus shifts away from Natlan in version 5.2, there may be development in the Nation of Pyro.
Natlan may host an event at Genshin Impact 5.2
The flagship event may center around Dragonspan
Although the aforementioned Dragonspine event that was leaked is most likely the flagship event for the patch.Here are rumors that Natlan will host its own event in version 5.2. This information comes via the leaker known as Foul, which was then shared in a post on Reddit. The leak doesn’t describe the nature or content of the alleged event, but it seems like players won’t stray too far from the Nation of Pyro if there really is an event in Natlan.
New Natlan map areas may arrive with Genshin Impact 5.2
This expansion should force players to explore the nation of Pyro
In addition to the rumored Natlan event, there are rumors that the Nation of Pyro map will expand with the arrival of version 5.2. According to a leak posted on Reddit, Three new Natlan areas will be added with the updatePossibly doubling the size of the current map for the nation. These areas will likely come accompanied by new world quests, the leaked world boss and the two new leaked Nightsoul trials in Genshin Impact 5.2. As such, players will have plenty of reasons to stay in Natlan during the patch, even if there are no new Archon quests.
Additionally, the two new Natlan characters should also require resources from Natlan to fully advance and have their talents leveled, meaning players who acquire them may be forced to visit the Nation of Pyro consistently throughout the duration of the patch. These leaks should all be taken with caution, but they have been reliable in the past and it would make sense for HoYoverse to keep players interested in Natlan Genshin Impact 5.2, despite the lack of new Archon quests in it.
