What to Expect

Version 3.1 is going to be the first update after the massive Version 3.0, so it is natural that players are hyped for it. From what the developers have told us, we can expect that each version in 3.X will introduce a new part of the main story. Alongside this, we can also look forward to the two new 5-star characters, Tribbie and Mydei, that will certainly spice up the meta. Lastly, we can’t forget about the countless events and system optimizations. Version 3.1 is looking like a decently sized patch, and we are excited for this Friday to see what miHoYo has in store for us!
