Liyue’s Lantern Rite festival has returned toGenshin Impact, offering a wide range of activities to help players get into the party spirit. Although it celebrates the same festival as last year’s Lantern Rite, the new event - Fleeting Colors in Flight - features an entirely new story and focus. Last year,Genshin Impact’s players built lanterns to celebrate; they’re building fireworks instead this year.

This can be done bycompleting the Blazing Stars Ring in Fortune event quest, which requires players to have completed Interlude Chapter: Act 1 - The Crane Returns on the Wind. Once they’ve acquired a Launch Tube, players will be ready to start smelting fireworks to earn Primogems, Mora, and Affluence Talismans.
