Genshin Impact announces rhythm game upgrades for upcoming Version 2.7 event

Genshin Impact introduced an upcoming rhythm game event for Version 2.7, The Almighty Arataki Great and Glorious Drumalong Festival, which will be held to celebrate Kuki Shinobu's law graduation. The rhythm game will introduce drums with a semicircle tap zone and customizable gameplay and a new feature for creating custom beatmaps.

It's not the first time HoYoverse has introduced rhythm game mechanics into Genshin Impact, but it will be the first time they introduce customizable gameplay to make the event more enjoyable for players, regardless of the device they play on. Players will be able to adjust the following settings:

• Beat sound volume—adjusts the sound of the tap beat.
• Note falling speed—makes notes fall faster or slower, but doesn't change the number of notes in an existing beatmap.
• Lag calibration—adjusts the acceptable tap range, making the game feel more beginner-friendly and playable on laggy devices.

In addition, the note editor will be unlockable after completing event tasks. Players will be able to create custom beatmaps that others can try upon entering a Sharing Code.
