Genshin Impact Version 6.0: Unveiling Nasha Town and Nod-Krai
Recent leaks from Genshin Impact's beta servers suggest the locations of Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, both anticipated for Version 6.0. With Natlan's development nearing completion, focus shifts to Snezhnaya, the Cryo Nation, a region predicted to surpass Sumeru and Liyue in scale. Its vastness, extending westward from Natlan and encircling Fontaine to the north, necessitates a phased release.
Initial leaks suggested Nod-Krai as a standalone region in Version 6.0. However, current data mining strongly indicates its placement within Snezhnaya as an autonomous province and vital trade hub. Liben's statements place Nod-Krai in Snezhnaya's southernmost area, suggesting access via Fontaine or Natlan.
Leakflow, Extra, and footage from The_Strifemaster reveal a placeholder landmass in the Version 5.4 beta, situated beneath Fontaine's western waterfalls. This landmass intriguingly connects to Mont Esus, a rumored Fontaine expansion. While this doesn't confirm Mont Esus's release timeline, the connection points toward Nasha Town and Nod-Krai's introduction in Version 6.0.
Exploring Nod-Krai: A Lawless Province
Nod-Krai serves as both a region and a city on Snezhnaya's southern border. Despite the Voynich Guild's presence, it maintains a reputation for lawlessness. A significant Fatui stronghold, led by Dottore, operates within Nod-Krai. Nasha Town is a key settlement within this province, and its inhabitants are rumored to possess power predating Teyvat's seven Elements.
Dividing Snezhnaya into multiple releases might be controversial, but its sheer size necessitates this approach from both narrative and development perspectives. Following the conclusion of Natlan's Archon Quest in Version 5.3, subsequent updates will progressively introduce Snezhnaya. While Capitano's fate remains unknown, Skirk, a character linked to Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners, is slated for release in Natlan. Barring unforeseen delays, Version 6.0 is expected around September 10, 2025.
