Genshin Impact New Interlude Trailer
As HoYoverse slowly sets the stage for Nod-Krai, all signs point that the new region in Genshin Impact will see many plotlines converge. In a recent behind-the-scenes video, the developers hinted at an ambitious story for Nod-Krai in Genshin Impact, with the Song of the Welkin Moon implied to last a full year. It will see major factions such as the Hexenzirkel, the Fatui Harbingers, and the Knights of Favonius play a role in deciding its fate. However, the latest interlude trailer implies that the four Shades will also make their move.
The trailer was shared across social media on July 9, 2025, as Genshin Impact has finally revealed the identity and appearance of all four Shades: Ronova, Naberius, Istaroth, and Asmoday. The trailer not only confirmed the Ruler of Space as Asmoday, but also explored the unique dynamic that Naberius has with Rhinedottir. Its second half teased Nod-Krai and its diverse landscape, offering players a glimpse of the next region of Teyvat. More importantly, it also teased Pierro and Columbina in Genshin Impact, with the latter rumored to join the playable cast during Nod-Krai.
The Palestar Edict, teased during the initial marketing for the Song of the Welkin Moon, appears to concern Columbina. The Fatui have been recalled to Snezhnaya and dispatched to Nod-Krai – seemingly under orders to retrieve Columbina. It remains to be seen if the edict came from Pierro or the Tsaritsa herself, but the trailer strongly implies that Columbina went rogue and is pursuing her own agenda in Nod-Krai. Players can expect to see more of Nod-Krai and Genshin Impact at Gamescom.
