Though the Genshin Impact × Discovery Nature Benefit Collaboration is officially finished, its impact shall continue on. To celebrate the achievements of the event, let’s look at what the community raised for charity and how many travelers got involved.
Discovery has a new video for us to watch with lovely drawings of our favorite characters featured in the event, like the elusive Genshin Impact’s Kaveh. Seriously, where has he got to? While we love that he’s the face of these eco-friendly events, we’d like to get him on a banner soon.
Back to the topic at hand – an astounding two million players got involved with the Nature Benefit web event, spreading the importance of conservation and looking after the planet. The web event featured key characters including Genshin Impact’s Candace, Genshin Impact’s Tighnari, and Genshin Impact’s Albedo as spokespeople for Teyvat’s different regions, showing off the characteristics of each biome.
Over four million viewers watched Discovery’s mini-documentary outlining different climates and what each provides for the Earth. These five habitats have celebrity voices like Game of Thrones’ Kit Harington and actress-turned-environmentalist Lily Cole as narrators. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can find it right here.
The Discovery Tour included stops in some key locations, such as London’s Stratford Westfield Mall, where a stand plastered with Kaveh’s adorable face popped up overnight. I went and spent far too long standing in the queue, but I did buy a delightful Alhaitham standee and donate some bottles.
The same tour hit Berlin, Paris, Rome, and Seoul to provide goodies to eager travelers while making money for charity, culminating in over $32k going towards rainforest conservation charities, thanks to over 5,000 participants in the offline events.
Who knows, maybe Kaveh can come back to the game now his jaunt is over as a ranger in the rainforest? It’s been a whole year since his last appearance on a Genshin Impact banner, so hopefully, with the release of fellow dendro-user Genshin Impact’s Emilie, he’ll show up again.
