The freshly announced weekly boss, rooted in chess aesthetics, will feature a series of chess pieces that players will have to combat during the encounter. According to the leaks, players can expect a multi-phased battle:
“In the first phase, you need to defeat two pieces. In the second phase, the pieces are a King and a Queen — they must be defeated at the same time. If you defeat one and leave the other, the defeated one will be revived after a while.”
This reveals an engaging two-phase battle. Initially, players will face a selection of two random chess pieces, while the second phase pits them against the formidable King and Queen duo, necessitating simultaneous defeat to prevent revival.
Location of the New Weekly Boss in Genshin Impact 5.6
In addition to the boss’s mechanics, Selee Leaks has disclosed the location where players can encounter this upcoming weekly challenge. According to the information, the boss domain will be situated on the beach, specifically to the east of the Temple of the Lion domain.
Furthermore, there is speculation that as Genshin Impact’s storyline may be transitioning back to Mondstadt in version 5.6, completing an assigned quest in the region could be essential to unlock this new boss.
As more details arise regarding the weekly boss and its related quests, we will provide updates to keep players informed.
