According to the latest beta build,Genshin Impactis expanding the Nightsoul Trials in Version 5.2 with four new challenging enemies for players to face. While most of the open world inGenshin Impactcan be conquered by a wide variety of teams, the Local Legends are an exception by any measure. Despite the existence of the Spiral Abyss and the Imaginarium Theater, an argument could be made that Local Legends represent the biggest challenge inGenshin Impact, especially with the way they evolved in Natlan.
UnlikeFontaine inGenshin Impact, Natlan features Nightsoul Trials on top of the roaming Local Legends found in the overworld. Nightsoul Trials take the player to a secluded arena by interacting with Nightsoul Totems found in Natlan. These arenas feature unique combat rules that players need to overcome as they battle the Local Legend. Though the current number of Nightsoul Trials inGenshin Impactis six, Version 5.2 aims to add four more to the mix.
Asdatamined by HomDGCat,Genshin Impactwill add four new Nightsoul Trials in Version 5.2. Players will be able to find Potapo’s Solidarity, Tupayo’s Aid, Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar, and Ironbeard in the upcoming Natlan zone by interacting with the corresponding Nightsoul Totem. Conquering all four Nightsoul Trials, as well as three new Local Legends in the overworld, will award players with a new Duelist namecard inGenshin Impact. While the Nightsoul Trials are tough by design, having certainGenshin Impactcharacterscan give players a notable advantage.
Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar
Ironbeard
Among the four Nightsoul Trials added by Version 5.2, Potapo’s Solidarity appears to be the most interesting one. Whereas the other three fights are straightforward, Potapo’s Solidarity will allow healers such as Kokomi or Xianyun to shine. On the other hand, Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar was likely designed for characters such as Yoimiya or Lyney, with the latter expected to appear on theEvent Banners for Version 5.2 ofGenshin Impact.
When it comes to challenging Ironbeard, a Navia team that focuses on Plunge Attacks would likely be the key to victory, while having a character such as Chasca likely makes Tupayo’s Aid significantly easier. Though the Nightsoul Trials can sometimes hint at the ability kit of future characters, the only credible rumor circulating aboutCitlali inGenshin Impactis that she will be a Cryo Shield Support. Version 5.2 is set to launch on July 08, 2025.
