A recent leak has revealed significant changes coming to the Imaginarium Theater in Genshin Impact Version 5.0. The upcoming update will introduce a new difficulty level and reduce the number of characters required for performances. Players will also have the opportunity to earn bonuses by bringing more characters than the minimum required.
These changes aim to refine the Imaginarium Theater experience, balancing player feedback with the developers’ vision and enhancing the game’s content offering.
Highlights
- According to a leak, Version 5.0 will revolutionize the Imaginarium Theater in Genshin Impact, offering a new difficulty level and reduced character requirements.
- Players will be able bring fewer characters to performances, with the opportunity to earn bonuses by bringing more than the minimum required.
- The upcoming changes aim to strike a balance between player feedback and developer vision, enhancing the value of the Imaginarium Theater.
A recent leak reveals that sweeping changes are coming to the Imaginarium Theater in Version 5.0, as the new game mode in Genshin Impact will receive a fourth difficulty, and even decrease the number of characters needed to commence the performance. While Spiral Abyss has long been the sole example of challenging content in Genshin Impact, Version 4.7 introduced the Imaginarium Theater as its alternative. The key difference between the two game modes is that the Imaginarium Theater puts a far greater emphasis on horizontal investment – or more precisely, Genshin Impact accounts that prioritize characters over constellations tend to fare better.
Completing the Imaginarium Theater in Genshin Impact cannot be done with two teams alone, as each character can only make an appearance twice. Moreover, each season imposes strict restrictions on the player, such as limiting the Elements that can be used during a performance. Some have argued that the Imaginarium Theater is too restrictive, which is why the developers are still trying to find that perfect balance.

Version 5.0 will mark the team”s most substantial effort yet in addressing player feedback on the Imaginarium Theater. A recent leak by HomDGCat reveals that not only will players be able to bring fewer Genshin Impact characters to a performance, but they will also receive bonuses for bringing more than the minimum. The information was revealed via a string of Telegram messages, which also confirmed that the Imaginarium Theater would be getting a fourth difficulty, upping the number of Chambers to 10, and increasing the amount of Primogems earned per season to 800.
Imaginarium Theater Changes in Genshin Impact Version 5.0
Close
- The number of characters needed for the Imaginarium Theater has been reduced across all difficulties.
- Easy Mode now requires 8 characters, down from 10.
- Medium Mode now requires 12 characters, down from 14.
- Hard Mode now requires 16 characters, down from 18.
- A fourth difficulty mode has been added to the Imaginarium Theater.
- The number of characters needed is currently unknown, but it is confirmed to have 10 Chambers, implying a minimum of 20 characters.
- Though the number of characters has been reduced, players can still invite extra characters to their Imaginarium Theater performance.
- This increases their attributes, provides extra Fantasia Flowers, and amplifies their Blessings.
These changes are certainly a step in the right direction, as the Imaginarium Theater is still trying to establish itself as a valuable part of the game. Whereas the Spiral Abyss in Genshin Impact solely provides Artifact coffers and Primogems, players can unlock cosmetic rewards via the Imaginarium Theater – such as unique character poses called Thespian Tricks.
It remains to be seen how the Imaginarium Theater will continue to evolve in the Natlan era. Version 5.0 is set to introduce three new characters to Genshin Impact, and is expected to launch on August 28, 2024. However, given the cyclical nature of the Imaginarium Theater, the new changes will only come into effect during its season in September.
