Genshin Impact 5.2 Map Leaks
According to leaks posted on Reddit, Genshin Impact 5.2 will have a map extension of Natlan. The new area is said to be at the Northwest of the current accessible area of Natlan. The new region will have the Masters of the Night Wind and Flower-feather tribes with their Tribal quests. Other than that, the new region will also have new Natlan local legends that players can battle and earn rewards from.
Now, there are still no leaks about the Collective of the Plenty being available in the new area. It is likely that Collective of the Plenty will become accessible in Genshin 5.3 instead and may play a bigger role in the final arc of Natlan’s Archon quest.
Genshin Impact 5.2 Event Leaks
A leak via Foul marked as questionable on Reddit reveals that one of the events in Genshin Impact 5.2 will be named the ‘Dragonspine event‘. This likely means that players will be heading back to Mondstadt and restarting the Dragonspine event quest of Albedo.
Previously, Albedo revealed that the Dragonspine Durin is slowly growing in vitality and the wanderer saw a vision that confirmed it. It is likely that the time for the final altercation has come, forcing the Traveler to head back to Mondstadt.

However, with the introduction of two new tribes, you can expect six more Tribal quests at the least. Other than that, Genshin 5.2 will also have event quests that are said to take center stage.
