According to recent sources, a completely new section of the Fontaine map will be included in Genshin Impact version 4.1, which is scheduled to release towards the end of September. Inazuma and Sumeru both grew in size shortly after being added to the anime game, HoYoverse has expanded new territories before. In its current state, Fontaine’s above-ground map seems somewhat tiny, but new Genshin Impact update appears to be adding both land and aquatic regions.
The Hydro nation was just added to the north of Sumeru in Genshin Impact version 4.0, and in version 4.1, it looks like the map will continue to grow northward. The map of Teyvat has begun to look a bit strange in shape, with Fontaine feeling isolated in the northwestern corner, connected only to Sumeru through ports and narrow waterways.
If the leaked map is correct, two more Statues of the Seven will be added above the Court of Fontaine, along with about 15 teleport waypoints scattered about. A few of those waypoints appear to be underwater, so both sides of Fontaine’s map will be growing soon.
The leaked image comes from known leaker ‘blednaya,’ and you can see it for yourself in this Reddit thread. The map’s location names are in Russian, but you can still see the layout of the upcoming expansion clearly.
Interestingly, there doesn’t seem to be a fully completed rail line in the northern part of Fontaine – the line looks partly finished or broken.
There’s still a little over two weeks left until version 4.1 comes around, so you still have time to pull for the top-tier Zhongli along with Childe and the newcomer, Freminet.
