Genshin Impact Version 6.0 Leaks Reveal Nasha Town and Nod-Krai Locations
Recent leaks from Genshin Impact's beta servers suggest the locations of Nasha Town and Nod-Krai, both anticipated for Version 6.0. With Natlan's Archon Quest nearing completion, development is shifting towards Snezhnaya, the Cryo Nation ruled by the Tsaritsa. Snezhnaya's immense size, surpassing even Sumeru and Liyue, necessitates a phased release, likely spanning multiple updates.
Early leaks hinted at Nod-Krai as a separate region in Version 6.0. However, recent datamining confirms its placement as an autonomous province within Snezhnaya, acting as a crucial trade hub connecting the Cryo Nation to the rest of Teyvat. Liben's information places Nod-Krai in Snezhnaya's southernmost area, suggesting access via Fontaine or Natlan.
Data from Leakflow, Extra, and The_Strifemaster's footage in the Version 5.4 beta reveals a placeholder landmass beneath Fontaine's western waterfalls. This landmass intriguingly connects to Mont Esus, a previously rumored Fontaine expansion area. While this doesn't confirm Mont Esus's release timeline, it strengthens the connection to Nasha Town and Nod-Krai's placement.
Exploring Nod-Krai: A Lawless Province
Nod-Krai is both a region and a city 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 here. Nasha Town is a key settlement within the province, and its inhabitants reportedly wield power predating Teyvat's seven Elements.
Dividing Snezhnaya into multiple releases is a potentially controversial but pragmatic decision. The region's scale demands a multi-update rollout, both narratively and developmentally. With Natlan's Archon Quest concluding in Version 5.3, subsequent updates will likely build anticipation for Snezhnaya. While Capitano's fate remains unclear, Natlan will introduce Skirk, a playable character with ties to Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners. Barring unforeseen delays, Version 6.0 is slated for a September 10, 2025 launch.
