HoYoVerse has done a lot of Snezhnaya teasing with recent Genshin Impact announcements, and it happened again during the Luna VII Special Program for the next update. In addition to the stream bringing up additions, like characters and weapons, in the May 20, 2026 patch for all platforms, it involved a new preview teaser trailer for the next numbered update and region. There are also three new codes that we can use to get Primogems on May 8, 2026. Those are “BacktoSumeru,” “NicolaCoco,” and “WilltoWin.”
Here’s the full “Frozen Tundra Shrouded in Wind and Snow” Snezhnaya Genshin Impact trailer. It begins by showing one of the trains we’ll be traveling on through the region, before showing the Traveler going through other areas and utilizing other traversal methods to get around. We also get a look at a possible new costume for them at the end.
As for what’s going on in Luna VII, we know more about what to expect. The story will bring us back to Sumeru, with Collei being one of the featured characters. The first banners available at launch will be the new five-star Nicole one and a Durin rerun, and Prune will join the general pool as a four-star during those banners and be a focus unit there. The second part of the update will add the five-star Lohen on one banner and bring back Mavuika for the other. The five-star Angelos’ Heptades is Nicole’s unique weapon, which will appear on a banner in the first part, while the five-star Disaster and Remorse polearm is Lohen’s featured weapon in the second half. The two new Artifact sets we’ll be able to earn will be Celestial Gift and Disenchantment in Deep Shadow. While Nicole won’t get her own unique Story Quest yet, Lohen’s Lepus Miles Chapter: Act 1 will appear. Meanwhile, Prune will be tied to a Phantasmal Pals event that will take part during this version. Trials of the Brave Warrior and Kaleidoscopic Color Chase will show up during this version too.
You can see the trailer for Truth Amongst the Pages of Purana below.
There’s an event preview video too.
