Genshin Impact continues expanding its winter content with the official reveal of the Dragonspine International Cross Country Challenge, a brand-new seasonal event arriving alongside Version 6.3. Titled Soulblazers' Snowbound Journey, this limited-time event invites Travelers back to the harsh snowy peaks of Dragonspine, blending fast-paced races with a variety of fun competitive mini-games designed to test agility, teamwork, and timing.

The event will officially begin on December 19, 2025, at 10:00, and offers a wide selection of valuable rewards, including an event-exclusive bow, Primogems, and high-tier upgrade materials.

Cross-Country Racing Takes Center Stage in Dragonspine

At the heart of Soulblazers' Snowbound Journey lies the International Cross Country Challenge, a snow-filled racing activity where Travelers must navigate icy terrain, steep slopes, and hazardous obstacles scattered across Dragonspine. Players will sprint across frozen paths while avoiding environmental dangers that reflect Dragonspine’s signature survival mechanics.

These races emphasize movement mastery, encouraging smart stamina management, precise directional control, and quick reactions to dynamic hazards. Each completed challenge contributes to event progression and unlocks additional activities back at the main camp.

Fun Mini-Games and Camp Activities Await

Beyond the intense races, the event camp hosts several lighthearted mini-games that contrast Dragonspine’s normally unforgiving atmosphere. These activities are designed to be accessible and enjoyable for players of all skill levels, offering alternative ways to earn event currency and rewards.

Completing mini-games allows Travelers to steadily accumulate progress toward milestone rewards, making the event flexible for both casual players and dedicated completionists.

Event-Exclusive Weapon and Major Rewards

One of the most anticipated rewards from Soulblazers' Snowbound Journey is the exclusive 4-star bow, Rainbow Serpent's Rain Bow. This weapon is only obtainable through event participation, making it a must-have for collectors and bow-focused characters.

Additional rewards include:

• Primogems

• Crown of Insight

• Outdoor furnishing items

• Enhancement materials and Mora

These incentives make the event highly appealing, especially for players preparing for upcoming banners and character releases in Version 6.3.

A Seasonal Celebration in Dragonspine

Soulblazers' Snowbound Journey reinforces Genshin Impact’s tradition of seasonal exploration events, breathing new life into Dragonspine while offering meaningful gameplay variety. By combining competitive racing, casual mini-games, and exclusive rewards, the event provides a balanced experience that appeals to a broad range of Travelers.

As Version 6.3 approaches, this snowy adventure stands out as one of the most engaging limited-time events announced so far.
