Although specifics about upcoming content have not been revealed, it's safe to assume that fans can expect word on Kokomi, our next encounter with the Raiden Shogun, and other "juicy details" about the next Archon Quest. Any additional features or changes to the game will also be covered in the program.

Are there rewards for watching the program?

MiHoYo offers limited-time codes during Special Preview Programs, so Genshin Impact players will be able to redeem for 300 primogems and additional goodies just for tuning into the broadcast.
