After experimenting with a new 5-week update schedule, Genshin Impact: Best Team Comps For Faruzan
Genshin Impact's Six-Week Update Schedule Helps Players More Than Five Weeks
Although Genshin Impact Version 3.3 will still be providing the same amount of content, the extra week will give players a much-needed break in activity. Instead of having to complete quests and events non-stop throughout the patch, the downtime created from the 6-week release cycle will give players more chances to explore the game freely. On top of this, the increased banner length can impact any player looking to Wish for a certain character, like Genshin Impact 3.3's Wanderer. Even though it's only a few extra days, for a player close to a guaranteed 5-star character, this could make a huge difference.
An Extra Week Between Genshin Impact Updates Can Help Devs As Well
This increased time to Genshin Impact patch length will be just as beneficial to the developers as it will be to the players. By returning to the six-week update cycle, the developers of Genshin Impact will now have more time to test updates, as well as think of more creative content. While this isn't a direct benefit to the players, having an extra week to iron out bugs will help increase the quality of each patch upon release. Hopefully, this will bring a noticeable change to the polish of quests, stories, and events in Genshin Impact Version 3.3 and beyond.
Based on the benefits it provides to both players and developers, the 6-week update cycle for Genshin Impact seems to work much better than the 5-week cycle did. Although getting new content earlier is good to keep players interested in the game, the increased quality that comes from the extra week is what has worked for Genshin Impact in the past and will most likely continue to work in the future. Despite this, it'll be hard to tell just how much these changes affect the game, until Genshin Impact Version 3.4 releases early next year.
