Okay, so I was trying to figure out when this character Navia from Genshin Impact was released. It’s been bugging me for a while, and I finally decided to get to the bottom of it.
First, I started by skimming through some stuff online. It looks like Navia is a Geo character, and she was introduced in version 4.3. There was something about her banner being in the first phase, running from December 20th to January 10th, along with another character named Ayaka.
Then, I dug a bit deeper. Apparently, the version 4.3 update, which included Navia’s debut banner, officially started on December 19th for many players, especially those in the West. But here’s the catch – for some areas, it was technically December 20th. Time zones, right? They always make things a bit tricky.
I also found out that there was a livestream revealing that Navia would be in the first half of version 4.3. And if we assume the standard six-week cycle for updates, that checks out with the December 19th/20th release date.
But here’s where it gets interesting. I stumbled upon some conflicting information. One source said her banner would be released on July 17th, 2024. That seemed totally off, considering everything else pointed to December 2023.
After looking all over, I had to sort through all this to get a clear picture. So, I put all the dates in a list:
- December 19, 2023: Version 4.3 starts for many players in the West.
- December 20, 2023: Version 4.3 starts for some regions, and it’s the official start date for the first phase banner.
- January 10, 2024: The first phase banner, which includes Navia, ends.
- July 17, 2024: This date seems incorrect, probably a mistake or a prediction for a different event.
So, after all this digging and sorting, it’s clear that Navia was released as part of Genshin Impact’s version 4.3 update, which started on December 19th or 20th, 2023, depending on where you are. That July date is definitely a red herring. Mystery solved!
Man, figuring out release dates can be a real headache sometimes, especially with all the different time zones and conflicting info out there. But hey, at least now I know when Navia joined the Genshin Impact roster. Now, I gotta go try out that Gunbrella!
