A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed a new domain which is expected to arrive in the next update 3.3. Leaks and rumors have become a part of the game as each update has its own beta version that includes all the upcoming content such as new regions, weapons, and characters.Domains are instances located in temple-like entrances that are spread all over the world of Teyvat. While most domains in Genshin Impact serve for acquiring different types of items like artifacts or ascension materials, some of them are designed for important story events. These kinds of domains are usually temporary as they are tied to a specific quest or event.The official social media accounts have already confirmed that two new characters, Wanderer and Faruzan, will be joining the playable roster in Genshin Impact update 3.3. A popular leaker named naevisleaks has revealed a new type of domain which is apparently explorable in the current beta phase for 3.3. While the leak does not specify the domain's purpose, fans are speculating that it might be related to one of the upcoming story quests tied to the two new characters. Fans have pointed out that the domain is very unusual as it does not feature any other objects except the mysterious tree.
Trees have always been one of the main themes in Genshin Impact as every new region that arrives seems to have its story tied to a mysterious tree. Even Sumeru's entrance scene features Irmisul, a powerful tree whose roots stretch to the Abyss, and they are connected to Teyvat's Ley Lines. This could be the reason why players stand in front of a tree to collect their rewards after completing a domain.
The official storyline has revealed that Irminsul has connections to all living forms around the world which allows it to record all of Teyvat's past. The new Dendro Archon is also tied to this tree, and she serves as its main protector. However, the Archon also benefits from its endless knowledge which makes her the God of Wisdom.
Some comments claim that the domain could be the place where Wanderer finally changes to the good side before joining the playable roster. The Balladeer is considered one of the strongest characters in the story which made him the 6th Fatui Harbinger. Despite being portrayed as one of the most powerful villains, recent events have given more information about his tragic history.
Genshin Impact is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices. A Switch version is in development.
