Genshin Impact’s 2.8 summer update is absolutely massive, with so much to take in that it’s almost impossible to follow. To help you, we’ve put together a list of the Genshin Impact 2.8 events that you can participate in. We’ll detail all of the events, including when they kick off and end, and what they involve.
Never played Genshin Impact before? Well, it’s an enormous open world RPG that combines Breath of the Wild-style exploration with gacha character collection. There are tons to unlock, and you can equip them with weapons, artifacts, and more. The story progresses with most updates, so there’s a wealth of content to play through.
We’re here to help you though. We’ve put together a Genshin Impact codes list, a Genshin Impact Heizou build, and Genshin Impact Kazuha build. But let’s crack on with these new events.
