Genshin Impact – When is the Next Banner Coming?

Genshin Impact uses a gacha system, and with every update (normally every six weeks), HoYoverse brings two or more new banners to the game that may feature a few new characters or a rerun of existing five-star characters. Either way, a new banner is always in the works.

Wondering when the next banner for Genshin Impact is coming and who will star in it? I've got you covered with this guide, which I highly recommend you use as a reference to help you save up Primogems for your most-wanted units.

Genshin Impact Version 4.2 Current Character Banner | Cyno | Kamisato Ayato

The second half of Version 4.2 runs from November 28, 2023, to December 19, 2023, featuring five-star Electro polearm user, Cyno, and five-star Hydro sword user, Kamisato Ayato. Alongside them, you can pull for four-stars Xiangling, Kuki Shinobu, and Kirara on rate-up.

Fate Tracker

You now have an option if you want a system that can keep track of your Wishes and when you should be guaranteed your next Five Star in the Google Doc linked below (thank you to DQueenie13 for creating it)!

• Primogem/Fate Tracker + Rolls Calculator
  • You need to save a copy to use this. When on the page, go to File, then Make a Copy to do this. This will be a copy for you in your own Google Docs.
  • For questions, message DQueenie13 on the Genshin Impact Wiki page or through their Discord, zebra#4539.

Type in your correct details into the sheet (e.g. if the banner was featured, how many rolls since your last Five Star, and how many Primogems and Fate you currently have). It'll then calculate all the details, the odds of getting a Five Star, and how many rolls are left to get a guaranteed one.
