Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Four Upcoming Character Releases

Genshin Impact's Upcoming 5-Star Character Lineup Revealed

Recent leaks have unveiled exciting details about upcoming Genshin Impact character releases, specifically focusing on four new 5-star additions slated for Versions 5.4 through 5.7. Version 5.3, currently live, introduced Mavuika and Citlali, along with the 4-star Lan Yan arriving later in the update.

The recent Special Program hinted at these upcoming characters, showcasing silhouettes at the event's conclusion. A reliable leaker, DK2, has since identified these characters and their release order: Versions 5.7, 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6 respectively. All four are confirmed 5-star characters.

Mizuki: A 5-Star Anemo Catalyst User in Version 5.4

The spotlight is on Mizuki, the second character revealed in the silhouette leak, strongly indicated to debut in Version 5.4. Beta testing confirms Mizuki's presence as a 5-star Anemo catalyst user from Inazuma. The lack of other 5-star characters in the current beta suggests Mizuki will be the sole 5-star addition to Version 5.4.

Mizuki's design aligns perfectly with the leaked silhouette. Early gameplay footage points to a support role, emphasizing high Elemental Mastery. Synergies with the recently released Pyro Archon, Mavuika, have also been observed. A mid-February release is anticipated, likely appearing in the first banner phase of Version 5.4. Her arrival may signal a return to the Inazuma storyline, a common pattern for HoYoverse, revisiting regions several updates after their initial introduction.
