The wait is almost over! Genshin Impact Version Luna I, “Song of the Welkin Moon: Segue,” launches on September 10, 2025, and this isn’t just another regular update. HoYoverse has revealed Genshin Impact Version Luna I, kicking off a year-long event series that specifically caters to long-time players and dedicated spenders.

If you’ve been playing since launch or have invested heavily in the game, this update brings revolutionary features that will transform how you approach character progression and team building.

What Makes Genshin Impact Luna I Special for Veterans?

The update debuts the Nod-Krai region, new Archon Quests, three new characters, and major gameplay optimizations, but the real excitement lies in the veteran-focused mechanics that address long-standing player requests.

Masterless Stella Fortuna	Level 100 cap breakthrough	Max constellation owners

The Masterless Stella Fortuna System

Here’s where things get interesting for veterans and big spenders. The Masterless Stella Fortuna is acquired when you obtain the eighth copy of a character, i.e., when you have the maximum number of Constellations for a particular unit already.

How It Works:

When the player obtains a 5★ character from a Wish that they already own at the maximum Constellation level, they will receive 1 Masterless Stella Fortuna. This system transforms what was previously “wasted” pulls into valuable progression material.

Level 100 Progression:

1 Masterless Stella Fortuna is required to ascend from Lv. 90 to 95, and 2 Masterless Stella Fortunas are required to ascend from Lv. 95 to 100. No additional Character EXP Materials or Mora is required.

New Characters Arriving in Luna I

Version “Luna I” will introduce “Evermoon’s Sacrament Song” Lauma (5-Star Dendro Catalyst) and “Shadowy Lights, Stranger Wights” Flins (5-Star Electro Polearm), along with Aino, the new 4-star character.

Banner Schedule:

Phase 1 of Version 6.0 has Lauma’s release banner alongside Nahida’s rerun banner! Both banners will run from September 10, 2025 to September 30, 2025.

Community Reception: Controversy and Excitement

The update has sparked intense debate within the community. The catch is that the item that will let you reach the new cap is effectively exclusive to the game’s whale-level spenders, leading some players to express concerns about widening gaps between different spending levels.

However, veterans who have already invested heavily in C6 characters see this as a long-overdue solution to duplicate character pulls feeling “wasted.”

Free Rewards and Livestream Codes

Don’t forget to redeem the latest codes! Codes from the livestream are LunaI0910, LaumaNodKraiFlins, and HiFiveTraveler, which you can redeem for 300 Primogems, 10 Mystic Enhancement Ore, 5 Hero’s Wit, and 50,000 Mora.

Annual Constellation Event

The update introduces a recurring event that will let you get up to four Stella Fortuna for five-stars each year, and pick a five-star and get items needed to boost them to level 60. This represents a significant shift toward more generous F2P rewards.

Strategic Implications for Different Player Types

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Level 100 cap only for whales, or can F2P players eventually access it?

A: While Masterless Stella Fortuna is primarily obtained through C7+ pulls (making it whale-focused), F2P players can theoretically access it over very long periods through lucky pulls on characters they’ve already maxed. The annual free constellation events also provide alternative paths to eventually reach maximum constellations on select characters, though this would take years of consistent participation.

Q: Will the Level 100 cap create a significant power gap in co-op and competitive content?

A: The power increase from Level 100 characters will likely be noticeable but not game-breaking. Genshin Impact’s content is generally designed to be clearable with properly built Level 90 characters, so Level 100 will more likely provide comfort and efficiency rather than mandatory power. However, future endgame content may be designed with this higher power level in mind, so the long-term impact remains to be seen.
