Summary
- The upcoming Genshin Impact Version 5.7 will introduce a new permanent game mode called Perilous Conflict.
- Players will need to spend Resin to claim rewards in this mode, leading to limited attempts to obtain valuable rewards.
- Perilous Conflict will feature different difficulty levels and Burning States for earning greater rewards.
A Genshin Impact leak has revealed the name of a permanent game mode expected to arrive in the upcoming Version 5.7. Genshin Impact has already confirmed that the next update will feature two new characters: the long-awaited five-star Cryo user Skirk and a new Mondstadt Hydro user named Dahlia.
With each new update, Genshin Impact introduces a number of events; however, most of these are limited to that version of the game and disappear after a couple of weeks. Over the past few years, developer HoYoverse has been adding more permanent game modes, such as Genius Invokation TCG and the Imaginarium Theater.
Genshin Impact Leaks Updated Banner Character List for 5.7
A new Genshin Impact leak reveals an updated list of limited characters that will be featured in the upcoming banners for Version 5.7.
A leak shared on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit has revealed that the name of the new permanent game mode has already been changed. According to the leak, the mode’s name in Version 5.7 has been changed from Tumult Subduer to Perilous Conflict. Overall, fans seem happy with the name change, though many hope HoYoverse will also change the way rewards are collected. Based on the currently available details, players will need to spend Resin to claim rewards from this game mode. This means they will have a limited number of attempts to obtain valuable rewards, a system that has not been well received by the community. The new mode has been compared to Genshin Impact's Spiral Abyss, which does not require Resin to participate or earn valuable rewards, including the game’s most important currency, Primogems.
Genshin Impact: New 5.7 Game Mode Explained
Previous Genshin Impact rumors suggest that at the start of Perilous Conflict, Travelers will choose one of five difficulty levels, ranging from Normal to Mortal. Similar to the Spiral Abyss, completing higher difficulties will grant more rewards, and finishing a higher tier will also grant the rewards from lower tiers. After entering the domain, Travelers must complete up to three consecutive battles; clearing all of them will count as a completed challenge.
Unlike other permanent game modes, Perilous Conflict will reportedly feature enhanced periods known as a “burning state,” during which players can earn greater rewards. To get official information about this game mode, players will have to wait for the next Special Program, which will reveal most of the upcoming content in Genshin Impact Version 5.7.
Even though the last few updates before the release of a new major region are typically considered filler content, it seems HoYoverse is planning to break this pattern by introducing permanent content alongside one of the most anticipated five-star characters in Genshin Impact. Based on HoYoverse’s usual update schedule, players can expect Version 5.7 to arrive around June 18.

WHERE TO PLAY
Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy.
You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived.
Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds...
MASSIVE OPEN WORLD
Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover?
ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM
Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage.
Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration.
BEAUTIFUL VISUALS
Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life.
SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK
Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood.
BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM
Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains.
JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS
Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards.
As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure!
