Genshin Impact “Luna V” Features The Playable Release Of Varka - Everything You Need To Know In Version Update 6.4
The eventful climax of Luna IV has ended—the grand finale of Dottore's experiments thwarted, and the Moon Goddess has returned home to her companions in Nod-Krai. In Genshin Impact Luna V, we take a short trip back to where we first began: Mondstadt.
The Special Program Announcement on February 13 showcased what's new and updated in the upcoming version, which launches on February 25. Here's a quick tour of everything you need to know in Luna V: Homeward, He Who Caught The Wind .
Mondstadt, Reimagined?
Throughout our journey in Nod-Krai, Varka has shown us his carefree and easygoing side, which complements his legendary strength and leadership. However, one question still lingers: "Why has he kept himself away from Mondstadt since the beginning of our journey?"

In Luna V, we will witness the unfolding mystery around Varka, how the Knight of Boreas came to be, as well as the truth behind his pact with the Hexenzirkel and Barbatos of ages past.

Phase 1 of Luna V features Varka's debut banner and Flins's first rerun banner. Varka's signature weapon is also featured in the weapon banner.
To celebrate the Grandmaster's return to Mondstadt, the Chronicled Wish event will take place alongside his own banner. This special event highlights six Mondstadt characters from versions 1.X, as well as ten 5-star weapons of Mondstadt origin. You may choose any one of these as the "guarantee", although you still have to spend pulls on your choice, similar to a regular Wish banner.
