This is the Genshin Impact 1.3 Update Schedule, Hu Tao Becomes the Third Character Banner?

The wait for Genshin Impact fans for Update 1.3 will finally be answered, where the update has been scheduled release on Wednesday. As a form of preparation, Mihoyo is also preparing access to the pre-load feature which will be opened on February 2 tomorrow. For the exact schedule, players can pre-load at 11:00 (UTC+8). Meanwhile, the update itself will follow the next day.

Players can already access Update 1.3 on Genshin Impact on 3 February, or more precisely five hours after the maintenance session which starts at 06:00 (UTC+8). As usual, players will be compensated in the form of 300 Primogems depending on how long the maintenance lasts.

There is a lot of new content that has been prepared for this latest update, starting from the Lantern Rite festival, a series of new events, new game modes with Tower Defense mechanics, new boss types, and much more.

We already know that Hu Tao will not be present in Update 1.3, or at least that’s what Mihoyo announced at the beginning. However, the latest announcement revealed that they still have new character banners prepared after Xiao and Keqing. Given that the duration of the event banner for each character is more limited than in all previous updates, it is most likely that the third character that will be present in Update 1.3 is Hu Tao.
