Leaked details for Genshin Impact’s Version 5.7 Spiral Abyss reveal Cryo and Nightsoul buffs, spaced-out bosses, and team comps favoring Melt and Freeze strategies. Here’s what to expect.
Genshin Impact players preparing for Version 5.7’s Spiral Abyss now have a clearer idea of what to expect, thanks to new leaks shared by trusted dataminer HomDGCat. The upcoming endgame content appears to be a bit less brutal than recent patches and will cater heavily to Freeze and Melt team comps—making it easier for players with Cryo-heavy lineups or those using the new Nightsoul element.
Though Version 5.7 won’t include any new map areas, it will feature two new characters, a fresh game mode called Perilous Conflict, and another chapter in Dainsleif’s long-running storyline. All of this is intended to tide players over until Mare Jivari arrives in Version 5.8.

🌀 Spiral Abyss Blessings – Version 5.7 (July 16 – August 16, 2025)
This Abyss cycle appears to follow the pattern of buffing current Event Banner 5-stars, offering major boosts for specific elemental comps:
Blessings of the Abyssal Moon:
- First Half: +75% Cryo DMG for all party members
- Second Half: +75% Nightsoul DMG
- Special Effect: Triggering Cryo-related reactions causes a shockwave that deals True DMG every 2.5s

🧊 First Half – Ideal for Freeze Teams
Chamber 1:
- Secret Source Automaton: Overseer Device
Chamber 2:
- Ruin Guard
- Ruin Grader
- Construction Specialist Mek (Pneuma-aligned)
Chamber 3:
- Rock-Cavernous Wayob Manifestation
- Thundering Wayob Manifestation
Note: The two Wayobs spawn very far apart, complicating AoE burst comps like Ayaka’s. Skirk-based teams may shine here due to their agility.
🔥 Second Half – Built for Melt/Nightsoul Teams
Chamber 1:
- Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker
Chamber 2:
- Eremite Stone Enchanter
- Biting-Cold Wayob Manifestation
- Eroding Avatar of Lava
Chamber 3:
- Gluttonous Yumkasaur Mountain King

🔮 Key Takeaways
- Escoffier’s Cryo synergy from Version 5.6 gives Ayaka teams a notable advantage in the first half—despite Wayob spacing.
- Skirk teams get a potential boost due to the wide spacing of enemies.
- Nightsoul-based characters will dominate the second half with a generous 75% damage buff.
- Citlali, a Melt Support, is speculated to debut in Version 5.8—fitting with the enemy lineup and potential banner synergy.
- The Spiral Abyss content is subject to final tuning during beta, but the current leak offers solid preparation insights.
While it might be a dry patch for Primogems, Version 5.7 seems designed to keep players actively engaged with flexible team options and returning content like the Imaginarium Theater, now complemented by Perilous Conflict’s co-op gameplay.
With the Spiral Abyss tuned to match featured banners, it’s clear HoYoverse continues its strategy of tying endgame challenges directly to promotional characters. If you’re running Cryo mains or have invested in the Nightsoul archetype, this Abyss should be one of the smoother ones in the Natlan era so far.
