miHoYo’s popular open-world RPG, Genshin Impact, is gearing up for its upcoming v4.2 update that will reportedly bring in a new weekly boss. The leak from a reliable source suggests that the new boss will be a colossal whale with links to Childe, one of the playable characters and weekly bosses in the game. Fans can expect to encounter this exciting addition to the game in the coming weeks.
The leak comes from Uncle Regret, who has previously revealed accurate information about the game’s upcoming content. He claims that the whale is the same one that Childe saw in his dreams when he fell into an unknown abyss and learned his Foul Legacy combat techniques from his master, Skirk. The whale has also made an appearance in a teaser trailer for the Fontaine region, where it was seen approaching Freminet, another character who seems to have a similar experience as Childe.
It would likely make players go underwater to find and challenge this boss every week when it arrives in v4.2 of Genshin Impact. The whale is supposed to be the new weekly boss for the Fontaine region of the game, a region known for its water-themed gameplay and features, such as swimming, diving, and hydro combat. Speculations suggest that the whale boss may be related to the primordial water that is corrupting the region and causing trouble for its inhabitants.

The boss may also have some special abilities or mechanics that will challenge the players’ skills and strategies. Furthermore, the leak has not been confirmed by miHoYo yet, so players should take this information with a grain of salt until any sort of official announcements are made. However, if it turns out to be true, it will add another exciting element to Genshin Impact’s gameplay and story. It is further expected that this new boss may also have some special abilities or mechanics to use the players’ skills and strategies.
Other leaks related to the upcoming state that it will include four 5-star characters such as Kamisato Ayato, Baizhu, Furina, and Cyno. Furthermore, it is expected that the update will debut sometime in November in two parts, following the launch of version 4.1 later this month.
