Genshin Impact 2.7 Leaks: Livestream Premiere Preview and Dates with More Details
Credible sources stumbled across some of the claims made by an anonymous source. This anonymous source claims that special program 2.7 will be previewed or announced this coming Friday, i.e. May 20, 2022. Anonymous sources also claimed that Special Program 2.7 will premiere on May 23, 2022, with a "scientist" presenting Schumera live.
[SUS] [Unknown source from NGA] SUS message from NGA. The following are translations: “I asked. Live preview next Friday. Live on the evening of the 23rd. There will be a scientist who will introduce Sumer. If it's not, come back and cancel me." https://t.co/OvYuxMDHtZ
The veracity of this claim is still questionable, so the community is advised not to take it seriously. Several previous leaks have also talked about some sort of event taking place on May 20, 2022, but it's best to wait a few more days for any future leaks or announcements that provide more clarity.
If the claims turn out to be true, it means that the release of patch 2.7 is closer than players expected. miHoYo always followed a strict pattern until the pandemic situation in Shanghai forced them to delay the release of patch 2.7.
Based on the miHoYo template, patch updates will be released one week after the premiere of the special program. This means that if Special Program 2.7 is scheduled to premiere on May 23, 2022, players can expect the 2.7 patch update on May 30 or May 31, 2022.
Sumeru can be introduced by "scientist" in Special Program 2.7
The leaks also further explain that Sumeru will be introduced to "scientists". This part of the leak is vague, but the Genshin Impact community has come up with some very interesting theories for it.
Sumeru Academia is the most prestigious institution in all of Teyvat and the people who attend it are usually referred to as scholars. In the official Genshin Impact manga, Sayno was introduced as a scientist from Sumeru Academy who came to Mondstadt to help Lisa. Saino visited Mondstadt to escort Colley to Sumeru.
These events in the manga took place before the travelers awoke from their sleep, as there was no mention of Aether or Lumin in the official manga. Given this, it's entirely possible that the "scientist" in the leaks could be either Saino or Colley, or someone else entirely.
