With the Genshin 2.2 update scheduled for October 13th, folks are already wondering what’s next. There have been a few leaks here and there, but nothing definite apart from Itto and Gorou. Yes, update 2.3 will include the arrival of new fan-favorite Itto, whom Genshin Impact showcased the other day, quickly becoming the company’s most-liked tweet in history. So, based on these leaks, what do we know about Itto and the patch that contains him?

Genshin Impact 2.3 map update
Genshin Impact 2.3 is likely to include new locales, especially now that Tsurumi Island — the final Inazuma Island – will be introduced in Version 2.2. Yae Miko informs the Traveller that after conquering Baal (Raiden Shogun) and abandoning her Vision Hunt Decree, they should travel to Sumeru in pursuit of their brother. Whether or not this region will be included in 2.3 remains to be seen, but we do know that it will most likely be the next location we visit. Sumeru is regarded as the hub of knowledge, a place where wisdom and intelligence are revered. According to Liben, a traveling vendor for Genshin Impact, “Sumeru is entirely rainforest and desert.” This means that there will likely be a slew of new adversaries and bosses inhabiting this ancient location.
Genshin Impact 2.3 New weapons and Artifacts
Two new weapons already have stats and passives, a new 5-star sword, and a new Claymore. Both of the new characters, Gorou and Itto, appear to have one-of-a-kind weapons seen in their splash arts. However, we do not have any information regarding this new Bow or that Golden Club.
New Artifacts
We have information on two new sets of artifacts coming: Husk of Opulent Dreams:
2 pieces passive: DEF +30%4 pieces passive: The on-field character’s Geo damage grants +6% DEF and +6 Geo damage, up to one stack every 0.3s for max 4 stacks.Geo DMG off-field gained one stack every 3s. The stacks get lost after 6s of no more stacks accumulation.This artifact set seems to fit very well with Arataki Itto.
