Genshin Impact Version 6.0 Leaks: Nasha Town and Nod-Krai's Location Revealed?
Recent leaks from Genshin Impact's beta servers suggest the locations of Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, both anticipated for Version 6.0. While development on Natlan continues, beta builds are increasingly incorporating placeholders for Snezhnaya, the Cryo Nation ruled by the Tsaritsa. Given its immense size—potentially exceeding Sumeru and Liyue, extending westward from Natlan and north of Fontaine—Snezhnaya's release will likely be phased across multiple updates.
Previous speculation suggested Nod-Krai as a separate region in Version 6.0; however, recent datamining strongly supports its placement within Snezhnaya. Functioning as an autonomous province and vital trade hub, Nod-Krai connects Snezhnaya to the rest of Teyvat. Liben's statements place Nod-Krai in Snezhnaya's south, suggesting access via Fontaine or Natlan.
Leakflow, Extra, and footage from The_Strifemaster point to a placeholder landmass in the Version 5.4 beta, situated beneath Fontaine's western waterfalls. This landmass intriguingly connects to Mont Esus, a rumored Fontaine expansion area. While this doesn't confirm Mont Esus's release timeframe, the evidence strongly suggests a connection to Nasha Town and Nod-Krai's introduction in Version 6.0.
Nod-Krai: A Lawless Province
Nod-Krai is both a city and region on Snezhnaya's southern border. Despite some order maintained by the Voynich Guild, it's known for its lawless nature. A significant Fatui stronghold, led by the popular Harbinger Dottore, operates within Nod-Krai. Nasha Town is a key settlement in the province, and its inhabitants are rumored to possess pre-Elemental powers.
Dividing Snezhnaya might be controversial, but its scale necessitates a multi-update release, considering narrative and development complexities. With Natlan's Archon Quest concluding in Version 5.3, subsequent updates will likely prepare the stage for Snezhnaya. While Capitano's fate remains unclear, Natlan will introduce Skirk, a character linked to Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners. Barring delays, Version 6.0 is slated for a September 10, 2025 launch.
