Genshin Impact's Upcoming 5-Star Characters: Leaks Reveal Details
Genshin Impact Version 5.3 introduced Mavuika and Citlali, alongside the 4-star Lan Yan. But what's next? Recent leaks shed light on the highly anticipated 5-star characters slated for Versions 5.4 through 5.7.
A credible leaker, DK2, has revealed four upcoming 5-star characters, their release order matching silhouettes shown at the end of the Version 5.3 Special Program. These characters are expected to debut in Versions 5.7, 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6, respectively.
Mizuki: A 5-Star Anemo Catalyst User Arriving in Version 5.4
The most immediate addition is Mizuki, a 5-star Anemo catalyst user from Inazuma. Her presence in the 5.4 beta, and the lack of other 5-star characters in that beta, strongly suggests she'll be the sole 5-star addition to Version 5.4. This aligns with HoYoverse's pattern of revisiting older regions several updates after introducing a new one.
Mizuki's design, as seen in leaked beta footage, is consistent with the silhouette revealed in the Special Program. She's anticipated to be a support character, excelling with high Elemental Mastery and showing promising synergy with the recently released Mavuika. A mid-February release is likely, assuming she features in the first banner of Version 5.4.
Looking Ahead: Versions 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7
While specifics are scarce, the leak confirms three more 5-star characters are on the horizon for Versions 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7. Further details regarding their designs, elements, and roles remain to be seen, fueling anticipation for future updates. Stay tuned for more leaks and official announcements!
