After lots of sneak peeks and introductions of characters from Fontaine, fans of Genshin Impact are excited. They’re barely getting a chance to relax because someone known for sharing accurate information has revealed that the Battle Pass weapons are getting a big makeover.
We got confirmation about these new Battle Pass weapons during the latest Genshin Impact Fontaine 4.0 Livestream! These upcoming weapons have unique designs and each one has its special abilities.
So, without waiting any longer, let’s dive into all the information we have about the new BP Bounty!
New Battle Pass Weapons in Genshin Impact
Once players reach Adventurer Rank 20 in Genshin Impact, they can get the Battle Pass. They’ll get the BP Bounty reward if they buy the Gnostic Hymn and get to Level 30.
Before Version 4.0 of the game, this reward would let players choose from five different weapons. But now, the reward will have even more options. There will be ten types of weapons to choose from in the BP Bounty.

BP Bounty Weapons
These BP Bounty weapons are like good deals for players who don’t have super-powerful weapons. Like right now, many folks use the Serpent Spine sword, which isn’t the absolute best, but it’s still really liked by folks who use big blades like Eula, Arataki Itto, or Diluc.
People who like the game are guessing that the next set of Battle Pass weapons will work well for these characters:
Weapon Type | Battle Pass Weapon | Speculated Characters |
---|---|---|
Bow | Scion of the Blazing Sun | Ganyu, Tighnari, Lyney, or any CA-based Bow DPS |
Sword | Wolf-Fang | Ayaka, Keqing, Alhaitham, Albedo |
Claymore | Talking Stick | Most units do not benefit from this passive |
Polearm | Ballad of the Fjords | Xiangling, Cyno Quickbloom, Raiden National |
Catalyst | Sacrificial Jade | Nahida, Klee, Lisa, or any EM-favoured catalyst DPS/support |
