Genshin Impact leaks reveal Sumeru region

The world of Teyvat may be expanding quite soon with recent leaks revealing a new region is coming to the game. While there was some information on all seven regions when the game was released last year, there are still plenty that has yet to be revealed about those currently not in the game.
