• Each Phase corresponds to a different rotation of limited character/weapon banners.
• The first build of each version is numbered X.Y.0; any later hotfixes (if needed) are numbered X.Y.1, X.Y.2…

Maintenance starts at 06:00 (Asia server time, UTC+8) and is expected to last about 5 hours.

After each maintenance, players Adventure Rank 5 and above receive 300 Primogems as compensation.

If maintenance runs past the expected time, extra Primogems are given per hour of delay (the exact per-hour figure couldn't be confirmed from an official source).

A few versions had a different-than-usual expected duration.

Genshin Impact usually opens pre-download about 48 hours before a new version officially releases.

The exact pre-download date hasn't been announced yet — 48 hours is the general rule, not an exact date for the next version.
