Thanks to the rotating banners in Genshin Impact, you can regularly pull for new characters. Here are all the details you need about the current and upcoming banners in the beloved gacha.

The current and future banners in Genshin Impact allow Travelers to obtain new characters and try out different team comps. Like most gacha games, these banners regularly change, impacting pick rates and the all-important tier list.

If you’re looking to spend your hard-earned Primogems on the current version 5.2 banners, we’ve got everything you need to know about them right here.

Updated November 20, 2024, to add 5.2 banner details.

What is the current Genshin Impact banner?

The Genshin Impact 5.2 Phase 1 banner is ‘Piercing Shots Crimson Wake’ which features the new 5-star Ameno unit Chasca.

You can also grab a copy of 5-star Pyro unit Lyney during her rerun banner. Finally, the new 4-star Electro fighter Ororon is available on both banners.

The 4-star characters you can get from both banners are:

• Ororon (Electro)
• Sucrose (Anemo)
• Barbara (Hydro)

When does the current Genshin Impact banner end?

The version 5.2 Phase 1 banners will end on December 10, 2024, which gives Travelers plenty of time to save up Primogems and spend them on their banners.

We’ll update this section should HoYoverse extend the date further.
