Genshin Impact Art Expo Heading to Paris
Publisher MiHoYo will be showcasing artwork from Genshin Impact during an expo in Paris, France, this September. Announced on Friday, this limited-time event will showcase original concept for all six Archons and gorgeous visuals from each nation of the game, including Mondstadt and Natlan. Fans can expect exclusive merchandise at the event too, so it might be worth the flight over to the City of Lights.
Genshin Impact Fans Have a Reason to Visit Paris
Fans who are excited about the upcoming region Nod-Krai may want to check out the event too, as there will be art based on it at the Teyvat Expo. It will span over 1,000 square meters in Les Halles, showcasing hundreds of original drafts that feature characters, monsters, and landscapes from all six nations. MiHoYo says there will be a rare look into “never-before-seen sketches, unused concepts, and the full creative journey from the initial concept to final in-game appearances.” The Five Yakshas will also have their concept art revealed for the first time.
Additionally, Genshin Impact fans may be delighted to walk through artistic recreations of the locations from the game. MiHoYo says the Teyvat Expo will have the snowy cliffs of Dragonspine from Mondstadt, Liyue’s Lantern Right, and Inazuma’s Grand Narukami Shrine. Sumeru’s Akademiya and Mavuika’s Flamestrider will also show up during the event. There will be a custom photo booth and mini-game area as well that will provide an “immersive and unforgettable journey,” according to MiHoYo.
