When Is Genshin Impact Luna IV (6.3) Coming Out?

Genshin Impact Luna IV will be released on January 13, 2026, at 08:00 PM PST for the NA servers and January 14, 2026, at 11:00 AM CST for the rest of the world. Here is a quick overview of the Genshin Impact Luna IV release timings in different time zones around the world:

New Delhi, India: 8:30 AM IST on January 14, 2026 Tokyo, Japan: 12:00 PM JST on January 14, 2026 California, USA: 8:00 PM PST on January 13, 2026 Beijing, China: 11:00 AM CST on January 14, 2026 Toronto, Canada: 11:00 PM EDT on January 13, 2026 Rome, Italy: 5:00 AM CET on January 14, 2026 Melbourne, Australia: 1:00 PM AEST on January 14, 2026 Auckland, New Zealand: 3:00 PM NZST on January 14, 2026

The new update will add two new 5-star characters — Columbina and Zibai, and one new 4-star character — Illuga. Columbina is the best character for Nod-Krai teams in the game. She is an incredible Lunar reaction support. Zibai, on the other hand, is the strongest Geo DPS and enables Lunar Crystallize reactions. Illuga is a tailor-made support for Zibai teams, so both of these characters would go hand in hand in the banners. This Genshin Impact Luna IV banner is stacked with amazing characters, both new and reruns. So, learn which is the best character to pull in Genshin Impact Luna IV from our guide before you spend your primogems. Make sure to use Genshin Impact codes to obtain free Primogems before the Luna IV version ends. If you want to learn about maintenance start and end times, please refer to the next section.

Genshin Impact Luna IV Maintenance End Time

Genshin Impact servers will be undergoing a maintenance break for the update. The Luna IV (6.3) maintenance will start at 03:00 PM PST for NA servers on January 13, 2026, and at 06:00 AM CST on January 14, 2026, for the rest of the world. The maintenance is expected to last approximately 5 hours, after which the Luna IV version will be released. You won’t be able to log into your accounts during the maintenance period, so make sure to finish your farming before the maintenance starts. All logged-in players will be forcefully kicked out when the maintenance begins. As compensation for the maintenance, all Genshin Impact players who have reached Adventure Rank 5 before the update begins will be given 300 Primogems. This compensation can be claimed from the in-game mail box after the update has been released. However, the mail will expire after 30 days, so claim it before that.
