Genshin Impact 7.2 events schedule: every announced event and its end date

Key points

• As of 11 November 2026: version 7.2, "Hour of Ruin", has been live since 4 November 2026. Two announced events, the Genius Column submission event and the Miliastra Wonderland Inspiration Incentive Program, close on 15 December 2026 at 23:59 (UTC+8). Closing dates for the Stage Creation Guide event and Phase 1 of the Top-Up Center event are not confirmed yet, and neither is the date of the fix for Mitya's scarf.
• For a chance at Primogems in the Genius Column event, post on HoYoLAB under "Genius Column", link a Wonderland stage and add #MiliastraFun before 15 December 2026, 23:59 (UTC+8). Winners appear in the event post after 25 December.
• Your first purchase at the HoYoverse Top-Up Center since Version "Luna VI" gives Primogems ×300, and the event also adds an 8% Primogem bonus. Sharing the event's promotional image and link outside HoYoLAB can win you Primogems ×120 more.
• Creator rewards come as Creation Ticket No.1, which Craftspeople can redeem for cash in the Creator Center. A guide entered in the Stage Creation Guide event has a chance to win up to Creation Ticket No.1 ×6,000, but entering does not guarantee a prize.
• An update on 6 November 2026 fixed a bug that blocked some puzzles and the missing train on the way to Novokitezhgrad. The Mitya scarf bug is still open.

Which version 7.2 events are announced and when each one ends

Version 7.2 went live on 4 November 2026, and HoYoverse posted the Version 7.2 Now Available video at 03:30 UTC that day. Four events have been announced for the version so far, and two of them share the same closing time.

• Miliastra Wonderland Inspiration Incentive Program Genshin Impact Version 7.2: runs from 4 November 2026, 11:00 (UTC+8), which is 03:00 UTC, to 15 December 2026, 23:59 (UTC+8), which is 15:59 UTC. If other players play your stage during the version, you become eligible for creator earnings.
• The Version 7.2 Genius Column Submission Event: open from 4 November 2026 until 15 December 2026, 23:59 (UTC+8). Posts that share or analyse a Wonderland stage have a chance at Primogems.
• "Hour of Ruin" Version 7.2 Miliastra Wonderland Stage Creation Guide Submission Event: announced on 6 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC, where a guide on building Wonderland stages has a chance to win up to Creation Ticket No.1 ×6,000. We have no confirmed closing date for it yet.
• Version 7.2 Share HoYoverse Top-Up Center Event: Win Primogems, Phase 1: posted on 4 November 2026 at 02:00 UTC. Sharing the Top-Up Center promotion can win Primogems ×120, and the end date of this phase is not confirmed yet.

The 15 December deadline of 23:59 (UTC+8) is 15:59 UTC, or 16:59 in Central European Time. If you want either the Genius Column prize or Incentive Program earnings, have your post or stage up before that hour. Other version 7.2 news is on our Genshin Impact news page.

How to enter the Genius Column event for Primogems

The Genius Column event runs on HoYoLAB and asks you to write about a Miliastra Wonderland stage you like or want to break down. Selected posts have a chance to win Primogems.

1. Open HoYoLAB, click the "Post" button and pick "Genius Column" as the post type.
2. Link the Wonderland stage you want to share or analyse. Each stage has a GUID, which is its identifier, and the GUID for the same stage differs from one server to another.
3. Write your post with images, text or video, whichever format suits your breakdown of the stage.
4. Put the hashtag #MiliastraFun in the post, since the entry needs it.
5. Publish before 15 December 2026, 23:59 (UTC+8).
6. Return to the event post after 25 December 2026, when the list of winners is added there.

What the Miliastra Wonderland creator programs pay and how earnings work

Miliastra Wonderland is the part of Genshin Impact where players build their own stages for others to play, and HoYoverse calls the people who build them Craftspeople. Two version 7.2 programs reward those builders, and both hand out Creation Ticket No.1, a creator reward that Craftspeople can redeem for cash in the Creator Center.

The Inspiration Incentive Program is tied to whether your stages get played. During version 7.2, any Wonderland stage of yours that other players have played makes you eligible for creator earnings. Wonderlands that HoYoverse rates as high quality may also be featured on several platforms, which brings them more exposure and traffic.

The Stage Creation Guide event is a contest for guides on how you build Wonderland stages. HoYoverse wants Craftspeople to explain their stage design ideas so other builders can learn from them. An entry has a chance to win up to Creation Ticket No.1 ×6,000, and submitting a guide does not by itself earn anything.

Which themes the Stage Creation Guide event asks for

The guide event lists two suggested themes, and you can still write about a different topic. Following the theme instructions closely raises your chance of winning, and so does a more complete guide.

• Theme 1, Terrain and Scene Building: show how you use the Terrain Editor to build artistic scenes.
• Theme 2, Frontend Interface Design: walk through how you design and build frontend interfaces with UI Control Group.
• Your own topic: also allowed, outside the two themes above.

How to claim the HoYoverse Top-Up Center Primogems and the share bonus

The official HoYoverse Top-Up Center for Genshin Impact is open in version 7.2, and the Phase 1 event pairs a purchase bonus with a sharing prize. The steps below cover both, along with the rules a share needs to count.

1. Open the HoYoverse Top-Up Center for Genshin Impact.
2. Make a top-up there. If it is your first purchase since the release of Version "Luna VI", you get Primogems ×300, and the event also gives an extra 8% Primogem bonus.
3. Take the "Promotional Image + Link" from the Top-Up Center for the current phase.
4. Share it on a platform outside HoYoLAB to spread the word about the Top-Up Center or invite more Travelers to the event, because posts on HoYoLAB itself do not count.
5. Set the post so people other than you can see it, or the entry is not valid.
6. Do not reuse a screenshot from a successful entry in an earlier event.

The Primogems ×120 is a prize you have a chance to win, not a guaranteed reward for sharing. Our active codes page lists the Genshin Impact codes that are active right now.

Which version 7.2 bugs are fixed and which are still open

HoYoverse published the V7.2 Known Issues & Update post on 4 November 2026 at 07:16 UTC. One issue is still open: the scarf effects on the character "Mitya" can display abnormally, mostly at Constellation 6 (C6). HoYoverse says a future update will fix it, with no date given.

An update on 6 November 2026 at 11:00 server time on the Europe server (10:00 UTC) fixed two bugs that could block progress. In some puzzles, part of the puzzle could vanish and leave it impossible to finish. During the "Go to Novokitezhgrad" objective in the quest "To the Kristall City" or the quest "Like Melting Snow", the train could disappear and the quest marker could float in midair, so characters could not reach the destination.

If you still hit either problem, open the Paimon Menu, choose "Exit to Login Interface", close the game and log back in. HoYoverse gives this as the way to clear both issues. Both quests and the affected puzzles can then be finished as normal.
