The Genshin effect UK fans take note, as the fantasy action RPG’s mascot Paimon is coming to London this Sunday in large, inflatable form. The character will float down the Thames, and HoYoVerse is organizing an opportunity to get close to the Tower Bridge. Oh, and they chose the day of the extremely busy London Marathon as the start of Paimon’s journey along the Thames. What a time to be alive.
Paimon’s arrival in London is part of the so-called Giant Paimon Giant’s Global Endless Journey, which HoYoVerse says is a “river trip that begins in the Thames”. The inflatable pump will go up and down the river from 9am on October 2. A meetup at Butler’s Wharf begins at 4pm that day, where you’ll be able to get up close to the gas-filled mascot in front of the Tower Bridge. If you are too busy, you may be limited to half an hour at the location, which is a floating pier on the Thames.
There will be more chances to see the Giant Paimon on October 3 and 4 at Canary Wharf’s North Pier. After the adorable inflatable girl’s UK tour wraps up, she will be heading to Singapore from October 14-20. HoYoVerse has yet to confirm any more locations where Giant Paimon will be. emerged, but this seems to be the case now. Hopefully she will appear in more places around the world. I’ll let you know if I hear of anything.
Detailed information on the route and estimated time of the inflatable is available on the HoYoVerse . page here, along with advice on how to get to Butler’s Wharf. I can’t imagine you’ll miss the inflatables if you’re lounging near the Thames on October 2 but you know, the London Marathon. It can be hard to get down there if you’re not already in London.
Genshin Impact’s next update will be out tomorrow, September 28.
