Genshin Impact's Upcoming 5-Star Character Lineup Revealed
Recent leaks offer exciting insights into Genshin Impact's future character releases. Version 5.3 has already introduced Mavuika and Citlali, alongside the 4-star Lan Yan (arriving during the Lantern Rite Festival). But the spotlight now shifts to the highly anticipated 5-star characters slated for Versions 5.4 through 5.7.
A credible leaker, DK2, has unveiled the release order of four upcoming 5-star characters, revealed in silhouettes at the recent Special Program. These characters, from left to right in the silhouette image, are scheduled for 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, strongly indicated to be the second character shown in the silhouette. Mizuki's presence in the 5.4 beta, without other 5-star additions, further solidifies this prediction. Her design aligns perfectly with the leaked silhouette.
Mizuki is expected to be a support character, maximizing Elemental Mastery. Beta footage hints at strong synergy with the recently released Pyro Archon, Mavuika. If following the typical first banner release pattern, players can anticipate Mizuki's arrival around mid-February. Her introduction could signal a return to the Inazuma storyline, a common pattern in HoYoverse's update schedule.
This leak significantly enhances our understanding of Genshin Impact's upcoming content, generating considerable excitement for the arrival of these new 5-star characters and the potential story developments they will bring.
