Miliastra Wonderland Release
Travelers can now create a world of their own within Genshin Impact! You can access this new gameplay feature from the Paimon menu or the quick access button in the upper right of the main interface.

In Miliastra Wonderland, you’ll get to control a new character avatar called a Manekin. This Manekin is entirely customizable, from ascending, matching elements with your Traveler, and adventuring in Teyvat together! Please note that Manekins cannot be used in the following gameplay modes:
- Spiral Abyss
- Imaginarium Theater
- Stygian Onslaught
You can also freely change your Manekin’s appearance at any time.
Your Manekin won’t be restricted to just Miliastra Wonderland: you can enjoy taking photos with them adventuring across Teyvat as well 📸. Perhaps you’ll want to use a custom avatar featuring your awesome Manekin too!
Players can obtain desired cosmetics through the Miliastra Pass’s Awakening Chronicle, another Battle Pass for Travelers to enjoy. Thankfully, here are some ways to save on battle pass purchases:
- By purchasing Teyvat’s Gnostic Hymn or Gnostic Chorus battle pass tiers, you will obtain Miliastra Pass’s current Chronicles of the Realms for free
- By unlocking any Chronicle in Miliastra Wonderland, you can purchase the current Teyvat battle pass at a discount
A saving grace for our wallets, really!
In addition, you can also obtain new outfits from:
- Crafting outfits from blueprints obtained from Ode banners. This is a gacha system featuring both permanent and limited-time Ode banners
- Receiving outfit gifts from friends with a high enough Rapport level
- Purchasing directly from the in-game store (and gift friends!)
- Completing various quests
You’ll need Geode of Replications to roll in the new Ode banners, which you can check out below~

These mini-games are custom made by the community, so feel free to enjoy them with friends and strangers alike! Compete to obtain achievements, or perhaps leave a like and comment for any games you enjoyed!
Featuring in-game assets from Genshin Impact, you’ll also get to craft your very own Wonderland using the Miliastra Sandbox (no experience needed!).
If you’re nervous about starting out, you can also begin with templates and learn more from official tutorials and guides. Or perhaps discuss tips and tricks with the Genshin Impact community!
