Genshin Impact Version 7.2 'Hour of Ruin' Launches with Compensation

Genshin Impact is set to launch Version 7.2, titled "Hour of Ruin," on November 4, 2026. The update maintenance is scheduled to begin at 06:00 (UTC+8) and is estimated to last five hours. Following the maintenance, developers will distribute compensation via in-game mail within five hours of the update's completion.

Travelers who have reached Adventure Rank 5 or above by the start of maintenance are eligible for two forms of compensation. First, a maintenance compensation of 300 Primogems is provided, calculated at 60 Primogems per hour of server downtime. Second, an issue fix compensation of 300 Primogems is awarded for specific bug resolutions. Both compensation mails will expire after 30 days, so players must claim them promptly. The issue fix compensation must be claimed before the end of Version 7.2, while the general compensation deadline is November 7, 2026, at 06:00 (UTC+8). This update marks the next major content drop for the game, introducing new features and adjustments under the "Hour of Ruin" banner.
