The highly anticipated trailer for Update 1.2 for Genshin Impact has arrived, and players will need to bundle up to tackle the next area of the game.

The video introduces Dragonspire, an arctic mountain where the “snow never melts,” and a supposed burial ground for a dragon named Durin, whose remains might also exist in the player’s sword. As suggested in earlier data leaks, Albedo will join your party, along with Ganyu, but their exact roles remain to be seen. The trailer also highlights some new upcoming events, promising new rare items in reward boxes.

Genshin Impact was nominated for two categories, Best Mobile Game and Best Role Playing, at this year’s Game Awards. Although it was not victorious in either, developer Mihoyo is still celebrating by giving away 800 Primogems as a thank you gift. You can claim them by logging into the game between December 12 and December 15.

The Chalk Prince and the Dragon releases on December 23 for PC, PlayStation 4, iOS and Android. A Nintendo Switch version is still in development with no exact release date.
