Genshin Impact has revealed a major update for its Imaginarium Theater mode, teasing new buffs that will be available in version 5.0. Genshin Impact's Imaginarium Theater is a combat mode that works similarly to the Spiral Abyss. It requires players to pick their own squad and take on waves of enemies to obtain all the rewards. To unlock this special domain, Travelers must first reach Adventure Level 35.
Genshin Impact's Imaginarium Theater has a simple rule, which dictates that players must create their Principal Cast by combining versatile units. Each season of this mode features three elements, and only characters who use these elements and meet the level requirements can be selected for combat stages. At the beginning of each season, the Imaginarium Theater provides players with a buff that enhances their combat prowess. This buff also works in the Spiral Abyss mode, helping players defeat a formidable roster of enemies.
