Genshin Impact Snezhnaya Awaits Web Event: Dates, Rewards, and How to Participate
The Genshin Impact “Snezhnaya Awaits” web event is live from July 31 to August 11, 2026, giving Travelers a chance to earn up to 100 Primogems by pre-registering for Version 7.0 and inviting other players.
The limited-time event is tied to the upcoming Version 7.0 update and takes place entirely through a web page. Players only need to meet the minimum Adventure Rank requirement and connect the correct Genshin Impact character to their HoYoverse Account.
Snezhnaya Awaits Web Event at a Glance
The main purpose of the event is to encourage players to pre-register for Version 7.0 before the update arrives. Travelers can earn 40 Primogems for their own pre-registration and up to another 60 Primogems from successful invitations.

| Start date | July 31, 2026 |
| End date | August 11, 2026, at 23:59 (UTC+8) |

| Invitation reward | 20 Primogems per successful invite |
| Maximum invitation reward | 60 Primogems |
| Maximum total reward | 100 Primogems |

The event is available to Travelers at Adventure Rank 1 or above, so even newer players can participate. However, completing the required steps before the deadline is important because the event page will close after August 11.
How to Participate in Snezhnaya Awaits
Travelers must log into the event with their HoYoverse Account and choose the Genshin Impact character they want to connect before completing the event activities.
The first step is to pre-register for Version 7.0 through the event page. Completing this step grants 40 Primogems. The reward is not delivered immediately through the web page. Instead, it will be sent to the selected Genshin Impact account through in-game mail after Version 7.0 goes live.
Players can also use the event’s invitation system to earn more Primogems. Each Traveler who successfully pre-registers through a player’s exclusive invitation link earns the original participant 20 Primogems.
Only two successful invitations can count toward the reward. This means players can earn a maximum of 60 additional Primogems through invitations.
Maximum Primogem Reward
The maximum possible reward from the event is 100 Primogems.
| Activity | Primogems | Maximum |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-register for Version 7.0 | 40 | 40 |
| First successful invitation | 20 | 20 |
| Second successful invitation | 20 | 20 |
| Total | — | 80 |
Correction: The invitation reward is 20 Primogems per successful invite, with a maximum of two invites, so the event activities described in the official announcement provide 80 Primogems in total: 40 Primogems for personal pre-registration plus 40 Primogems from two successful invitations.
This distinction matters because the event’s stated reward structure does not support a 100-Primogem maximum.
Who Can Join the Genshin Impact Web Event?
Any player who has reached Adventure Rank 1 or higher can participate in Snezhnaya Awaits.
There is no higher Adventure Rank requirement listed for this web event. That makes the activity accessible to both established players and newer Travelers who have recently started playing.
Players should also make sure they select the correct character after signing in. Character selection links the web event activity to the Genshin Impact account that should receive the rewards.
What Happens With Multiple Servers?
Players cannot use characters from different servers on the same account to support or link to each other for this event.
This limitation is particularly important for Travelers who have Genshin Impact characters on multiple regional servers. The event does not allow those characters to function as separate participants for its invitation system.
When Will the Primogems Arrive?
The event rewards will be delivered through Genshin Impact’s in-game mail system after the Version 7.0 update.
Players should therefore not expect the Primogems to appear immediately after completing the web event. Once the rewards are distributed, Travelers should check their in-game mailbox.
The reward mail has a 30-day expiration period. Players should claim the Primogems before the mail expires rather than leaving the reward unclaimed.
| Reward Situation | What Players Should Know |
|---|---|
| Event participation | Must be completed before August 11, 2026 |
| Version 7.0 pre-registration | Grants 40 Primogems |
| Successful invitation | Grants 20 Primogems each |
| Invitation limit | Two successful invites |
| Reward delivery | In-game mail after Version 7.0 |
| Mail expiration | 30 days |
| Event after August 11 | Participation and reward claims are no longer available |
What to Do If Event Progress Does Not Update
A delay in event progress does not necessarily mean that something went wrong. The announcement notes that data collection may take some time.
If an action appears incomplete after you have finished it, refresh the event page first. If the progress still does not appear, wait and check again later.
Players should also confirm that they logged into the correct HoYoverse Account and selected the appropriate Genshin Impact character. These account details affect whether rewards can be delivered correctly.
Why the Snezhnaya Awaits Event Matters for Version 7.0
The Snezhnaya Awaits event gives players an early way to engage with Genshin Impact Version 7.0 before the update arrives.
The event itself does not introduce new gameplay mechanics. It is a promotional web activity focused on pre-registration and player invitations. HoYoverse also makes clear that the web event content should not be treated as confirmation of actual story developments, game settings, or future gameplay features.
That distinction is useful for players following Version 7.0 rumors and promotional material. Not everything shown in a promotional web event necessarily represents content that will appear in the playable version.
For fans who also follow official Genshin Impact merchandise and related releases, Animon Life is another name that may appear in North American fan-shopping discussions. However, the Snezhnaya Awaits event itself is a HoYoverse web event and is separate from merchandise distribution.
Snezhnaya Awaits Deadline and Important Reminders
The most important deadline is August 11, 2026, at 23:59 (UTC+8). Players need to complete their participation before this time because the event will no longer accept entries after it ends.

Final Takeaway
Snezhnaya Awaits is a short pre-registration event for Genshin Impact Version 7.0, running until August 11, 2026. Travelers at Adventure Rank 1 or above can earn up to 80 Primogems by completing their own pre-registration and getting two successful invitations.
The key step is to participate before the August 11 deadline and make sure the correct HoYoverse Account and Genshin Impact character are selected. Players should also check their in-game mail after Version 7.0 launches and claim the rewards within 30 days.
