In the latest buzz from the world of Genshin Impact, fans are eagerly anticipating the addition of a permanent rhythm event in Version 5.3. Leaks have surfaced, giving players a sneak peek at an impressive tracklist set to debut with the update. For those unfamiliar, Genshin Impact stands out as an open-world adventure that skillfully blends thrilling character pulls with team-building strategies. However, its developers have never shied away from throwing non-combat-centric game modes into the mix, with popular entries like the Genius Invokation TCG and the enchanting Serenitea Pot capturing players’ imaginations.
The Rhythm event, having danced through several versions of the game (with a recent cameo in Version 4.6), has garnered enough enthusiasm to be considered for a permanent spot. Among the many quality-of-life enhancements that will accompany Version 5.3, this rhythm event is set to make a lasting impression. It comes equipped with a unique store and a feature for players to share their musical creations.
Dive deeper into the event details, courtesy of insider MadCroiX, and you’ll find “Repertoire of Myriad Melodies” packing a punch with 56 tracks initially. These tunes are lifted from the game’s first five regions, hinting that the tunes from Natlan might be saved for another day. From the hustle and bustle of “The Hustle and Bustle of Ormos” to character-themed compositions, the selection promises to be diverse.
Focusing on the tracklist, players will be treated to regional melodies starting with Mondstadt’s “Invitation of Windblume” and “Bard’s Adventure – Venti.” Liyue’s offerings include “Moon in One’s Cup” and “Path of Yaksha – Xiao,” among others. Inazuma follows with tracks like “Duel in the Mist” and “Duel in the Mist” – Kazuha. Sumeru fans can lay back to “Melody of Distant Green Fields” and “Caprice of the Leaves – Collei,” while Fontaine closes out with “Rondeau des fleurs et des rapieres” and “Shining Sails and Painted Parasols – Navia.”
The permanent rhythm event is structured so that players can dive into its tracks whenever they wish, freeing them from the anxiety of watching a favored game mode disappear. Whether the developers plan sustained engagement akin to that seen with the Genius Invokation TCG remains an open question. But one thing is certain—the initial tracks should keep fans entertained for quite some time.
Another aspect to ponder is how this development might affect future Genshin Impact Flagship Events focused on rhythm gameplay. With “Repertoire of Myriad Melodies” as a permanent feature, older events might seem redundant. Yet, the precedent set by the Genius Invokation TCG’s dedicated event in Version 3.7 suggests there’s room for both. As the developers continue to expand, it’s very likely that Natlan melodies will grace the Repertoire when its heroes join the story. Mark your calendars, as Version 5.3 is slated to make its grand entrance on January 1, 2025.
