A new Archon Quest may be added toGenshin Impact5.2, despite the speculation that the patch would not receive any new main story missions in what would be a short pause in the Natlan story arc before its conclusion in Version 5.3.The next major patch for HoYoverse’s action RPG is Version 5.2, a patch that is already confirmed to introduce Chasca and Ororon as playable characters. The beta tests for the update have already started and, with them, several details about it are starting to emerge, includingChasca’s abilities inGenshin Impact5.2, which may surpass Wanderer’s skills.

Aside from information on the new playable characters, the leaks are also highlighting other pieces of content that should be added with Version 5.2. This includes the number of Primogems players will be able to acquire with the next patch, the new Natlan map areas that may be added and even rewards that players may get from events.So far, it has been believed that events would compose the majority of the playable content in the update, like theleaked Dragonspine event inGenshin Impact5.2, but it seems there may actually be a new Archon Quest in the patch.

Genshin Impact 5.2 May Have A New Archon Quest

Data Leaks Highlight A New Main Story Mission

In spite of the speculation that the next patch would not feature new Archon Quests, it does seem like Version 5.2 will have at least one new main story mission set in Natlan. As reported by the leaker known as HomDGCat,there is data for an Archon Quest reward in Version 5.2. The leak was shared in a post onReddit. According to the leak, the leaked reward from the game’s data is referent to a single Archon Quest, meaning that the next update should pale in comparison to the previous twoNatlan updates inGenshin Impact.

I’m Excited My Favorite Genshin Impact Character May Finally Get A Skin I’ll Use

There are rumors of a new skin for one of my favorite Genshin Impact characters and I couldn’t be more excited about possibly changing their outfit.

For reference, Version 5.0 and 5.1 both featured two Archon Quests that composed the larger Natlan story arc. If the leak is true, Version 5.2 will only feature one Archon Quest, meaning half of the regular main story content should be added in the patch. While the main focus should be on the update’s events,it does not seem like the Natlan arc will come to a complete halt, as was previously expected. The expectations for the lack of more Archon Quests in Version 5.2 were somewhat set by an announcement made by HoYoverse during theGenshin Impact5.0 livestream.

HoYoverse Hinted At The Lack Of Archon Quests In Genshin Impact 5.2

New Archon Quest Rewards Will Not Be Given Out In The Next Update

The absence of new Archon Quests in Version 5.2 was somewhat hinted at by the developer itself. During the Version 5.0 livestream, HoYoverse announced that players would now get a bundle of 500 Primogems for the completion of new Archon Quests within the patch they were released.HoYoverse mentioned that the bundle of Primogems would be a recurrent prize for players during Versions 5.0, 5.1, and 5.3, skipping Version 5.2. This led the community to understand that the game would not see newArchon Quests inGenshin Impact5.2, though HoYoverse never confirmed or denied this would be the case.

Genshin Impact 5.2 Leaks: New Imaginarium Theater Rewards Are Beyond Lackluster

New leaks about the rewards coming to the Imaginarium Theater in Genshin Impact 5.2 have emerged and they seem to be very disappointing.

However, the recent leak shows that the patch will, indeed, feature one new Archon Quest.Players may simply not be rewarded with the regular 500 Primogems they would normally receive upon completing the chain of new Archon Quests during the update. This doesn’t mean that players are not going to be rewarded for their efforts. As mentioned in the leak itself, there is a reward in stock for players who complete the Archon Quest added with Version 5.2. This reward will likely be a small sum ofPrimogems inGenshin Impact, which are given out for each Archon Quest completed.

Leaked Archon Quest In Genshin Impact 5.2 Highlights Iansan’s Participation

Mavuika May Not Appear During The Leaked Mission

The leak not only evidences the possible existence of a new Archon Quest in Version 5.2 but also gives players more details about what they can expect from the new story missions.The leaker mentions that the line count in the new Archon Quests from Version 5.2 is relatively lower than that of the previous patches. In addition to this information, the leak also highlights all the characters with lines during the rumored Archon Quest and how many each of these characters speak. TheNatlan character fromGenshin Impactwith the most lines in the leak is Iansan.

Iansan is rumored to have 127 lines during the leaked Archon Quest from Version 5.2.

Genshin Impact’s Iansan breaks the ground as she stomps on it.

After her, the leak says that Paimon will have 65 lines, followed by the Traveler with 57 lines. Capitano also seems to have some importance during the patch’s rumored Archon Quest, with 41 lines. According to the leak,other important Natlan characters set to make appearances during the update’s rumored Archon Quest include Xilonen, Citlali, Chasca, Mualani, Kachina, Kinich, and Ororon. One of the characters with lines in the leak does not have their name revealed. The most notable absence in the leaked line count for the Archon Quest in Version 5.2 isMavuika inGenshin Impact.

Based on the leaked line count,the Pyro Archon will not have any participation in the upcoming Archon Quest. This should come across as a surprise considering how vital a role she has been playing in the Natlan story arc and its developments as forces assemble to fend off the Abyss’ incursion. From the looks of the leak, it seems like this new Archon Quest will be mostly focused on Iansan as an important character in the Nation of Pyro, and it may serve as a bridge between the Archon Quests fromGenshin Impact’s Versions 5.1 and 5.3.

Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks: Mavuika May Have The Most Broken Mount In Natlan

Mavuika’s gameplay kit has leaked and, with it, the mount she uses in Genshin Impact – and it may be broken compared to the other mounts so far.

These leaks should be taken with a grain of salt. Despite the leaker’s previous track record of correct leaks and their subsequent reliability, the information provided may be incorrect, incomplete, or subject to change. It is worth noting that HoYoverse never confirmed the lack of Archon Quests in Version 5.2, but only the lack of increased rewards. As such, there is a big chance that there will truly be at least one new Archon Quest in Version 5.2, disrupting speculation created by players thatGenshin Impact5.2’s lack of Primogem rewards for Archon Quests meant no Archon Quests at all.
