Welcome, travelers, to the annual Lantern Rite festival in Genshin Impact. This year’s celebration is bigger and better than ever, with a slew of rewards for you to claim – think in-game currency, character ascension materials, a brand new Xinqiu skin, and even the chance to get your hands on a Liyue 4-star character of your choosing.
So, what’s the deal with Lantern Rite? Think central story quest, alongside a variety of minigames that’ll earn you those all-important Festive Fever points and unlock those sweet rewards. This year’s festival runs from February 5 to February 26, giving you plenty of time to dive into the festivities.
But, wait, there’s more! Not all the rewards are accessible from the get-go. No, you’ll need to play through different stages and quests, with new ones unlocking as the event progresses. Just be patient and you’ll earn everything you want.
One of the standout rewards of Lantern Rite is the opportunity to score a free Liyue 4-star character of your choice – now that’s a sweet deal. And, if that wasn’t enough, you can also get your hands on Xinqiu’s newest skin, Bamboo Rain, at no cost. These are rewards worth earning.
It’s simple: for the 4-star character, you’ll need to grab 800 Festive Fever points and for the skin, you’re aiming for 600 points. The best way to score those points? By showing off your skills in the Lantern Rite minigames, of course.
Speaking of minigames, let’s dive into the key details of two of the most exciting challenges available: Paper Shadows A-Forging and Joyful Beasts and Their Auspices. You’ll score Festive Fever points just by playing, with additional points up for grabs based on your performance.
Once you’ve collected enough points from the minigames, it’s time to trade them in for rewards. From Primogems and Mora to character ascension materials, you’ll find it all here. Plus, don’t forget those all-important Festive Fever points – earn enough of those, and you’ll bag a Crown of Insight. That’s a reward worth showing off.
So, gear up for Lantern Rite, dive into the festivities, and claim those rewards. It’s time to show the land of Teyvat what you’ve got!
