The Genshin Impact 4.7 release date is technically today, June 4, with the launch time set for approximately 8pm PT / 11pm ET / 3am BT (June 5) due to the time gap with Chinese developer HoYoverse. The exact minute you can log in will vary depending on the RPG's maintenance downtime, with updates often arriving up to an hour early, but Western players can plan on a late-night start.
Genshin Impact version 4.7 is led by three new characters: five-star Electro sword user Clorinde, five-star Hydro archer Sigewinne, and four-star Electro archer Sethos. Clorinde will appear in the first half of the update alongside a rerun for Alhaitham, with Sethos among their shared four-star characters alongside Bennett and Thoma.
