Genshin Impact Leak Teases Version 5.2 and 5.3 Characters
Version 5.2
- Chasca: Five-star Anemo character
- Olorun: Four-star Electro character
Version 5.3
- Mavuika: Five-star Pyro character
- Citlali: Five-star Cryo character
The potential confirmation of Mavuika's Version 5.3 release comes as the Pyro Archon has already seen plenty of rumors about her in-game appearance and playstyle. Previous leaks have heavily suggested that players will be able to briefly control Mavuika during Version 5.1's new Archon Quest. Mavuika has also seen early details surface about her in-game kit, suggesting she may play a supportive role focused around buffs. Many leaks have even described Mavuika's kit as an upgraded version of past characters like Dehya and Xiangling.
While fans can already look ahead to the character lineup for Genshin Impact's future versions, the upcoming Version 5.1 looks to be making major changes to the game. Version 5.1 will introduce a new reward system for Genshin Impact's exploration, incentivizing players with Primogems to explore the game's newest areas. The update will also feature a new event in the Sumeru region, tasking players with aiding in the setup for the region's Sabzeruz Festival. Fans of Genshin Impact should have plenty to look forward to from the game, both in its next update and beyond.
