With the next major Genshin Impact version, i.e., version 4.4 being just a month away, a lot of information about the same has already started popping up. Some of the most vital news that players search for whenever a new version is about to release is the characters and weapon banner info pertaining to that version. Since Genshin Impact 4.4 will be huge, a lot has leaked already, and here’s everything you need to know about Genshin Impact 4.4 Character and Weapon banners.
Genshin Impact 4.4 Character Banners
| Phase | Characters / Weapons | Start & End Dates |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 5-star Characters | Xianyun and Xiao | January 31, 2024 – February 21. 2024 |
| Phase 2 5-star Characters | Nahida and Yae Miko | February 21, 2024 – March 13, 2024 |
| Phase 1 4-star characters | Gaming, TBA, TBA | January 31, 2024 – February 21. 2024 |
| Phase 2 4-star Characters | TBA, TBA, TBA | February 21, 2024 – March 13, 2024 |
As per the leaks, the first half of Genshin Impact 4.4 may feature a new character Xianyun (Cloud Retainer) and Xiao.
The probability of this happening is very high since the first half of Genshin Impact 4.4 will also feature Lantern Rite, and there hasn’t been a single Lantern Rite when Xiao was not on the banner.
Nahida and Yae Miko are doubtful but it’s what the latest leak says. Either way, take this info with a grain of salt.
As for the four-star characters, only one character “Gaming” is confirmed. More information about the four stars should be out as we get closer to 4.4’s release.
Genshin Impact 4.4 Weapon Banners
| Phase | Characters / Weapons | Start & End Dates |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 5-star Weapons | Crane’s Echoing Call and Primordial Jade Winged-Spear | January 31, 2024 – February 21. 2024 |
| Phase 2 5-star Weapons | A Thousand Floating Dreams, Kagura’s Verity | February 21, 2024 – March 13, 2024 |
| Phase 1 4-star Weapons | TBA, TBA, TBA | January 31, 2024 – February 21. 2024 |
| Phase 2 4-star Weapons | TBA, TBA, TBA | February 21, 2024 – March 13, 2024 |
Phase one of the weapons banner will feature Xianyun’s and Xiao’s signature weapons Crane’s Echoing Call and Primordial Jade Winged-Spear, respectively.
As for phase two, if the info regarding Nahida and Yae Miko banners is right, expect the signature weapons of both, A Thousand Floating Dreams and Kagura’s Verity.
The four-star weapons are not out yet, but we shall update them here as soon as any info regarding them is released.
As for when more information will be revealed about the banners, look out for the Genshin Impact 4.4 Livestream which could be scheduled on January 19, 2024; players can also expect lots of Primogems from version 4.4.
How do Genshin Impact Banners Work
A Genshin Impact version lasts for 42 days and contains two phases, each lasting 21 days. Each phase brings two limited characters (either new or re-runs). Each phase contains one weapon banner containing signature weapons of limited characters that are currently available.
