For those wondering, an open-world game is one that allows the player to travel from one end of the virtual world to another <em>sans<\/em> loading screens. Basically, it\u2019s a beautiful, big and unstructured alternate reality that\u2019s open for adventure \u2014 and you can approach the various objectives at your own time and pace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll meet different characters as you go through the game, and as you unlock them, you\u2019ll discover their unique set of skills and elements. This is important because they\u2019ll make up the combinations of teams-of-four which you\u2019ll be assembling strategically to fight your monsters with. This means \u2014 the rarer the characters and weapons, the better.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that you\u2019re sufficiently hyped up, here\u2019s all you need to know about Genshin Impact 2.1 to catch up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ultimate Guide to Genshin Impact:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#1: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/blog\/genesis-crystals-cheaper\/\" target=\"_blank\">Genesis Crystals: How to Get Cheaper Crystals in USD<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#2: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/blog\/genshin-impact-primogems\/\" target=\"_blank\">Genshin Impact: Guide to Farming Primogems<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#3: All You Need To Know About Genshin Impact 2.1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2694\ufe0f&nbsp; Genshin Impact 2.1: At A Glance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><\/td><td><strong>Genshin Impact 2.1<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Characters<\/strong><\/td><td>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Raiden Shogun (aka Baal): Five-star Electro polearm-wielder<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Aloy: Huntress from Horizon Zero Dawn (player has to be at least Adventure Rank 20 to claim her!)<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Kujou Sara: Four-star Electro archer and general of the Tenryou Commission<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Kokomi: Divine Priestess of Watatsumi Island and a five-star Hydro catalyst-user<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Weapons<\/strong><\/td><td>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Engulfing Lightning, Polearm<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Predator Bow, Aloy\u2019s Bow<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; The Catch 4, Polearm\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Everlasting Moongglow, Catalyst\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Luxurious Sea-lord, Claymore<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Opponents<\/strong><\/td><td>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; La Signora (new weekly boss in Genshin Impact 2.1)<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Hydro Hypotasis<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Electro Oceanid<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Quests<\/strong><\/td><td>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Inazuma Archon Quest: &#8220;Omnipresence Over Mortals&#8221;<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; World Quest<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Events<\/strong><\/td><td>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; The Moonchase Festival<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Passage of Clouds and Star Login Event<br>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb&nbsp; Lunar Realm (fishing rods given out here!)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>New Features<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb\u00a0 Waverider Waypoint: <\/strong>The new mode of transportation was brought in the 1.6 update.
