New Food
Some new dishes could possibly make their way to Teyvat—and Paimon’s tummy! Check out what we’ve been able to scrounge so far:
New Name Cards
Name Card collectors will be excited to hear that, per leaks, there should be at least three new Name Cards coming in the update.
New Furniture
Enkanomiya-themed Furnishings are expected to drop in Version 2.5. These include plant life and houses. There’s also going to be a new mini-game Furnishing called the Leisure Device: Archery Game, which will allow you to play a scored archery game in your Realm, whether alone or in Co-op. Its design visually appeals more to Monstadt-themed Realms.
A Special Furnishing item may also be obtained from Inagi Hotomi at Grand Narukami Shrine after completing Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual.

New UI
Quality-of-life has been on miHoYo’s list of priorities, and there’s no better way to execute that than by fixing the in-game UI to be as convenient as possible.
New Alternate Outfits
Due to censorship issues in China, miHoYo announced alternate outfits for Amber, Mona, Jean, and Rosaria. Leakers believe that these will come out in Version 2.5.
New Story Quests
Get excited for more Inazuma lore, which has been leaked to come in the form of two Story Quests. Make sure to stock up on Story Keys before the update drops!
New Events
Three Realms Gateway Offering
This is an exploration event where players must solve puzzles in the darkened Enkanomiya. The exploration progress in this event is separate from your progress in Version 2.4.
It’s a large event with plenty of new Chests and puzzle mechanics, but keep in mind that the leaks below may still change between the beta and Version 2.5 release.
Of Drink-A-Dreaming
This bartender event is expected to take players back to the Angel’s Share in Monstadt. Play the role of bartender and mix juices, tea, and coffee, and unlock 21 recipes. It’s unclear whether or not the recipes can be used post-event.
These are four-stage timed challenges serving NPC customers with various preferences. The following characters may also make an appearance (including voicelines!):
Hyakunin Ikki Rerun
The Hyakunin Ikki event was first released in Version 2.1, and leakers revealed that it may make a comeback in Version 2.5. The event involves completing six timed stages in pairs of two, aided by various buffs that you can assign to each team.
The new enemies, Shadowy Husks, are expected to appear in this event. The following trial characters have also been leaked to appear: Ayaka, Yoimiya, Kazuha, Itto, Xiangling, and Razor.
Divine Ingenuity
The Divine Ingenuity has been leaked to be a new event type, where players can design Domains and publish them for others to challenge. These are mob-free Domains that will test your puzzle-building capabilities with traps, wind fields, trampolines, and Element-applying platforms.
