Genshin Impact Version 5.0: New Character Details Revealed
A fresh leak unveils the weapon types, rarities, and elements of two new Genshin Impact characters debuting in Version 5.0. While information on the upcoming Natlan region has been scarce, reliable leaker FouL has shed light on these additions.
The leak suggests Version 5.0 will introduce three new characters: a 5-star male Dendro Claymore user, a 5-star female Hydro Catalyst user, and a 4-star female Geo Polearm user. This aligns with previous leaks indicating Natlan's initial releases would feature two 5-star Catalyst users and one 5-star Claymore user.
Here's a summary of the upcoming characters:
Version 5.0 Genshin Impact Characters:
- 5-Star Male Dendro Claymore user
- 5-Star Female Hydro Catalyst user
- 4-Star Female Geo Polearm user
The addition of a 5-star Dendro Claymore user is a welcome change, given Kaveh is currently the only character with that weapon and element combination. However, the inclusion of another Hydro Catalyst user, alongside Kokomi, Mona, Barbara, and Neuvillette, is less surprising. The 4-star Geo Polearm character might be Iansan, teased previously as a Natlan fighter. However, many players believe Iansan will be one of the anticipated 5-star Catalyst users, potentially appearing in Version 5.1.
Other leaks suggest Versions 5.1 and 5.2 will each introduce only one 5-star character, though specifics remain undisclosed. Natlan is anticipated to enhance certain Cryo and Hydro characters like Shenhe, Ayato, and possibly Emilie from Version 4.8. Version 5.0's launch is expected in late August 2024, with an official preview of Natlan and its characters anticipated soon.
