5.0 Update Leaked! Genshin's New Heroes Revealed

Genshin Impact Version 5.0: New Character Leaks Reveal Weapon Types and Elements

Version 5.0 of Genshin Impact is on the horizon, bringing with it two new playable characters. A recent leak from a reliable source, FouL, has shed light on their weapon types, rarities, and elements. While leaks regarding the upcoming Natlan region have been scarce, this information offers valuable insight for players anticipating the update.

The leak confirms the introduction of 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 earlier, albeit less detailed, leaks suggesting Natlan's initial character roster would include two 5-star Catalyst users and one 5-star Claymore user.

Analyzing the leaked character details:

• 5-Star Male Dendro Claymore: With Kaveh being the only existing Dendro Claymore user, the addition of a 5-star character with this combination is a welcome surprise.
• 5-Star Female Hydro Catalyst: While a new Hydro Catalyst isn't entirely unexpected given existing characters like Kokomi, Mona, Barbara, and Neuvillette, it still adds to the roster's depth.
• 4-Star Female Geo Polearm: This character could potentially be Iansan, previously hinted at in promotional material. However, many players believe Iansan will be one of the anticipated 5-star Catalyst characters, potentially debuting in Version 5.1.

Further 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 the capabilities of certain Cryo and Hydro characters like Shenhe, Ayato, and potentially Emilie from Version 4.8.

Version 5.0 is projected to launch in late August 2024. Official previews showcasing Natlan and its inhabitants are expected soon. Stay tuned for more updates!
