How does the alternate world used to create minigames works?

Miliastra Wonderland is a UGC mode of Genshin impact in the 'sandbox' genre, which is an additional game universe. Offering absolute creative freedom, the Miliastra Wonderland allows you to create your own character and content for entertainment, such as economic simulators, adventure activities, battle arenas, puzzle challenges, and more.

The built-in functionality is similar to the popular online platform Roblox, which is used by a multi-million audience to invent games with unique ideas. The sandbox is designed to add variety to the usual routine and allow anyone to bring any idea to life in the Teyvat universe.

Content

How to unlock

Access to the sandbox with many different games opened with the release of the 6.1 update"Luna II", that is 22th of October, 2025e, with the start of the first phase of the version.

Take part in the browser event with invitation codes, "Starbound Oath", which is dedicated to the release of the UGC activity.

The mode becomes available after talking to the Master of the Knights of Favonius Jean and unlocking the wishes system in the Archon Quest "Prologue. Chapter 1: The Outlander Who Caught the Wind." You can access it in two ways:

  1. By clicking the "Lobby" button in Paimon's menu, you will see other players' lobbies available for joining, as well as the option to create your own room and visit a random shared themed room.
  2. The game search icon will appear on the quick access bar in the upper right corner.

What to do if the content is not available on your current platform

The official news states that the editor and Miliastra Sandbox are currently only available on PC. This statement only applies to the programming portion, so lobbies and games should be available on all platforms.

If you can't get into the sandbox on a particular device, it's most likely not compatible with the system requirements. Most often, it's impossible to access the Miliastra Wonderland on PS4, but this is due to the end of support for the console series.

How much does the regime weigh?

As an insider called Sun states, the Miliastra Wonderland activity is built into the main client and will increase its size by 4-5 GB (on PC). The programming tool in the editor (Miliastra Sandbox) is optional and can be skipped if you don't want to use it.

If you don’t plan to visit the mode at all, in the HoYoPlay launcher find the Milliastra Sandbox section. You can disable the sandbox's automatic update, which will allow you to download only the necessary game data in the future.

How to exit the Miliastra Wonderland

There are three ways to leave the Astral Realm. The fastest is:

  1. Click "ESC" (menu call).
  2. In the lower right corner, click on Return to Teyvat.

The second option:

  1. Press "F2" or click on the house icon in the upper left corner next to the mini-map.
  2. Then click Return to Teyvat at the top of the window.

The third way is as follows:

  1. Open the lobby map (the English "M" key).
  2. Switch to any of the regions and select a teleportation point or Archon statue to fast travel.

How to create and customize the Manekin

When you first activate the new mode, you will be taken to the menu for creating your own character, also calledthe "Manekin", who will be the primary facilitator of interactions within the creative universe. Two creatures are available to choose from, male and female. Each has a "standard" appearance, which, after confirming your choice, can be freely customized: you can change your skin tone, eyes, eyebrows, hair/hairstyle, and even choose your outfit (top, bottom, and shoes).

If you don't want to choose on your own, you can use one of three ready-made presets or randomize the appearance by clicking on the corresponding icon.

This appearance is not final, so you will be able to change the image of your Manekin any time via the "Image Configuration" tab in Paimon's menu.

Once you've finished editing, you can take a picture of your finished character to set a unique avatar.

How to unlock new skins

Exploring the mode through activities rewards unlocking new clothing and accessories, which fill out the character's wardrobe with not only individual outfits but also complete looks. There are several ways to obtain skins:

  • Unlock free and paid options by reaching certain levels in the Chronicles , which is a separate battle pass for the mode. The standard one may offer specific image elements, while the upgraded one will allow you to pick up complete sets.
  • Use the crafting system: open catalogs (analogous to furniture blueprints for the "Serenitea Pot"), collect the resources specified in the "blueprint" and create clothes for your avatar yourself.
  • Participate in the standard Encounter Echoes and temporary Event Ode banners where you can get legendary and epic parts and accessories for various costumes.
  • Unlock the Gifts feature and exchange different outfit elements with your friends.
  • Spend specialized in-game currency in the stores of the Miliastra Wonderland (things purchased in this way can also be given to friends).
  • Complete various goals and objectives, dedicated to the "sandbox", and also increase its level to get rewards , such as Geodes of Replication and elements of various outfits.
  • Complete special tasks and fill your wardrobe with limited sets - for example, complete the "Invitation to Wonderland: A Curious Awakening" quest and the "Explore Wonderlands" bonus objective to get a sailor outfit.

Where else can you use the Manekin?

The looks you choose for your Mannekins can be used outside of mini-activities — for example, while exploring Teyvat, taking beautiful pictures, or using the Traveler's abilities in a completely new form.

With the release of version 6.1, all players who unlock the sandbox can use the avatar in their team and play it everywhere, except for the Twisted Abyss, Imaginarium Theater and Stygian Onslaught. Their elemental skills will match the Traveler's element type, and his current level will be the same as the level they achieved in the UGC.

Ascension stages for the Manekin, like those of other characters, grant "Acquaint Fate" (x3 standard pulls in total).

How to play as a hero from Teyvat

Update 6.3 added the ability to run as any companion from the main game. To do this, you need to:

  1. Go to the main menu (“ESC”) and click on “Change character”.
  2. In the interface that opens, select a companion.

How to level up

To increase the level of the Miliastra Wonderland, you need to:

  • play modes;
  • earn achievements for completing them;
  • Receive likes from other players from co-op maps.

The Manekin's level increases automatically as you reach level 10 of the Miliastra Wonderland.

Ode of the Miliastra Wonderland 6.7 (Temporary Costumes)

To give the Manekin an even more unique and memorable look, each new version of the Miliastra Wonderland will feature a special temporary "Event Ode", offering the chance to get one legendary set and three elite sets.

In a separate guide, we discuss the schedule of event Odes.

Subject "Where the breeze meets the fateful sea" — the main event of the "Luna 8" update, designed in the style of a summer beach, from which you can pick up the 5⭐ skin "Colorful Sea of ​​​​Fates."

In addition to the legendary image, you will be able to obtain three full epic versions.

Chronicles of the Realms (battle pass)

Chronicles is a special Battle Pass for the mode, which is divided into a standard version (free rewards) and a paid one, called "Chronicles of the Realms".

It is important to note that there are two ways to obtain an improved version of the battle pass:

  1. Separate purchase.
  2. Automatic access upon purchase of Gnostic Hymn or Gnostic Chorus (main battle pass) - in this case, you won’t have to buy two separate passes.

The following weekly and period goals are suggested for increasing Chronicle levels:

  • Enter the Miliastra Wonderland - run the mode every day.
  • Complete 5/10/15 stages - Play the specified amount of stages by selecting them from the Popular tab.
  • Complete 3\6\9 different stages - take part in different types of games from the "Popular" tab.
  • Earn 5000 XP in Weekly Quests - Complete the weekly quests listed above.
  • Earn any 5 level achievements - achievements unlock upon completing any run.
  • Complete 5 co-op stages in a team or multiplayer mode.
  • Complete any stage with a Rank of 0 or higher.
  • Complete any stage and enter the top 25% or top-1000 of the rating.

Main currency

There are several types of items available for exchange:

  • Geodes of Replication are designed to rbe used in the standard Ode. Complete Battle Pass tasks, level up and get crystals as a reward.
  • Arcane Keystones are a special material used for pulling in the event Odes. They can be obtained through exchange or purchased in the store using Engraved and Radiant Shards, resources awarded for obtaining duplicates of your event outfits.
  • Chronal Nexus is a premium currency that can be purchased with real money on the game’s website.
  • Luminous Keystone — a free analogue of Chronal Nexus for event pulls, added in the 6.2 updateFor now, they are only given out during temporary events.
  • Prismatic crystals needed for purchases in mini-games and with the patch 6.3 are tested in the "Colorful Surprise" module.

Why do we need the Lobby?

the Lobby is a special space, comparable to a "waiting room" or "main hall," where Mannekins from various locations gather to meet and team up for a minigame. In this area, every player has access to a shared chat where they can message and send stickers.

How to create and design your Wonderland

To create your own lobby, simply go to the Lobby menu and select Create a lobby in the lower left corner of the screen. The room opens with one Festive Key, a resource that replenishes every 12 hours.

Select a suggested lobby theme, set entry restrictions (free entry, password, or invitations), tags, and description. The last two fields are optional.

To decorate the lobby you've created, you have to ignore a ready-made theme, but use the "Custom Template" option. Next, click Import and Edit Location to enter construction mode.

How to create a game in the Miliastra Wonderland

The Miliastra Sandbox offers access to virtually all game systems and resources (including all monsters and objects found throughout Teyvat). To get to it:

  • Click My Stages in Paimon's menu.
  • Choose New Save.

⚠️ The programming tool can only be accessed on a PC.

The editor has a special function of visual editing to flexibly support the structure of all gameplay processes. This makes it possible to customize any entertainment mode, including the announced economic simulators, combat challenges, and other puzzle-based minigames. This is the core idea of ​​"creative freedom" in Roblox activities.

It's worth noting that as users improve their skills, they can level up and unlock more advanced editing features.

Training system

You don't have to worry that exploring an alternate universe for entertainment will be difficult or impossible:

  1. During the process of studying the designing tool, everyone will be offered comprehensive support, including the "Craftspeople Center" with a step-by-step training system that explains in detail the functions of each editing module.
  2. There is a separate forum for the Craftspeople, where you can share experiences, receive professional technical advice, and communicate with other players.

Additionally, the developers noted that the activity will be constantly improve, receiving various updates with the release of new game versions. For example, it is already known that major innovations will take place in the patches "Luna III" and "Luna IV".

What genres and parameters can be set?

When creating in the mode, as well as when searching in the "Popular Stages" and "Featured Stages" sections of Paimon's menu, both single-player stages and co-op modes will be available under various tags:

  • genre — business simulator, adventure, battle royale, shooter, survival challenge, roguelike, PvP activity, asymmetric arena, co-op battles and more;
  • camera — first or third person, bird's eye view, fixed, over the shoulder;
  • complexity - light, medium, heavy, hardcore, dynamic;
  • time (in minutes) - less than 2, from 2 to 10, more than 10, from 1 to 30 or without restrictions.

After the game is uploaded, over time, the project will be given an additional characteristic -recommendation, which includes short descriptions such as “don’t miss,” “recommended,” “mostly positive reviews,” “not for everyone.”

Creator Earnings Program

An attractive opportunity for talented developers whose mini-games and challenges have received high ratings from other users will be the "Creator Earnings System" reward program. The program has only one rule: the more popular the stage, the higher the income, which can also have a "long-term perspective."

Well, to be honest, it's still very weak. If it doesn't fail, then in six months we might be able to come back and maybe things will change for the better.
