Depending on how Natlan concludes his story in version 5.3, Tsaritsa will possess all seven Gnos and be able to carry out the next phase of her plan. WITH Genshin Impact With the introduction of Skirk as a playable character, it's safe to assume that her knowledge of the Abyss and the Descenders will play a major role in the upcoming chapter.

After all, there is no reason not to believe it Genshin Impact can't do a shorter release cycle. Version 6.0 is expected to launch on September 10, 2025.
