Bennett Shines in Genshin Impact 5.0 Livestream Preview

The hype for Natlan in Genshin Impact is reaching fever pitch, and the community is buzzing with excitement. The special program, titled "Flowers Resplendent on the Sun-Scorched Sojourn," is set to premiere this Friday at 12:00 AM (UTC-4) on both Twitch and YouTube. The poster has already been released, teasing fans with promises of new banners, official reveals, and a host of free rewards.

The Bennett Debate: Freebie or Overkill?

A hot topic among players is the decision to offer Bennett, the adventurous 4-star character, as the free character for the special program. Many anticipated receiving Kachina, a native of Natlan, but Hoyoverse opted for Bennett instead. Interestingly, Bennett is rumored to hail from Natlan himself, making him a fitting choice, albeit an unexpected one. Players will need to complete a world quest to add him to their roster. Meanwhile, Kachina won't be available for free, breaking from the tradition of providing a new region's character to aid in exploration.

Free Pulls Galore

The community's Primogem radar is on full alert with the announcement of free pulls. The number of pulls has fluctuated, initially at 113, then dropping to 110, and now settling at 115. If you manage to clear everything in version 5.0, you're looking at 115 pulls. Even if you can't grind endlessly, you're still guaranteed around 90 free pulls. With version 5.0 set to launch on August 28th, coinciding with Genshin Impact's 4th anniversary, players can expect even more rewards. A 7-day login event will offer ten fates, 1600 Primogems, an unrestrained pet, and a gadget. When you add up daily commissions, world quests, Spiral Abyss runs, and other events, you're looking at approximately 18,435 Primogems, equating to 115 wishes.
