Recent leaks from Genshin Impact's beta servers suggest the locations of Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, slated for release in Version 6.0. With Natlan's Archon Quest nearing completion, development shifts towards Snezhnaya, the Cryo Nation, a region anticipated to surpass Sumeru and Liyue in scale. Its vastness, extending westward from Natlan and northwards around Fontaine, necessitates a phased rollout.
Initial leaks suggested Nod-Krai as a separate region in Version 6.0; however, recent datamining confirms its placement as an autonomous province within Snezhnaya. Serving as a crucial trade hub, Nod-Krai connects Snezhnaya to the rest of Teyvat, likely accessible via Fontaine or Natlan, as indicated by Liben's description of its southern location.
Data from Leakflow, Extra, and The_Strifemaster's footage reveals a placeholder landmass in Version 5.4's beta, situated beneath Fontaine's western waterfalls. This landmass intriguingly connects to Mont Esus, a rumored Fontaine expansion. While not confirming Mont Esus's release timeline, this connection strongly points towards Nasha Town and Nod-Krai's proximity.
Exploring Nod-Krai: A Lawless Province
Nod-Krai is both a city and region situated on Snezhnaya's southern border. Despite the Voynich Guild's presence, it maintains a reputation for lawlessness. A significant Fatui stronghold, led by the popular Harbinger Dottore, operates within Nod-Krai. Nasha Town, a key settlement, holds a unique significance, with its inhabitants possessing power predating Teyvat's seven Elements.
Dividing Snezhnaya into multiple releases, while potentially controversial, appears necessary given its immense size and the complexities of its narrative and development. Following Natlan's Archon Quest conclusion in Version 5.3, subsequent updates will gradually introduce Snezhnaya. While Capitano's fate remains unclear, Skirk, linked to Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners, is set to become a playable character in Natlan. Barring unforeseen delays, Version 6.0 is projected to launch on September 10, 2025.
