HoYoverse’s hit action role-playing video game, Genshin Effect, has an ever-growing lineup of characters, originating from all over the world of Teyvat. While many present characters signing up with the ranks originate from the most recent area, Sumeru, brand-new info supplied by the admins of reputable neighborhood page ‘SaveYourPrimos’ recommends we might quickly be seeing a brand-new “cat-eared” character from Inazuma.
Based on SYP’s ‘IT’ on Twitterthe character, slated to show up throughout the 3.7 upgrade, will be a female Geo user, with a “short character model” similar to Genshin Effect characters like Ayaka and Yanfei.
While there’s no concrete information in the meantime – IT specifies that this shouldn’t be dealt with as a directly leakage – as Geo-enjoyers ourselves we can’t wait to see if SYP’s intel crystallises, and where she’ll arrive on our Genshin Effect tier list if it does.
While it might appear odd to toss a brand-new Inazuman into Sumeru, this local crossover has actually occurred prior to. Liyue constituent Yelan initially appeared in variation 2.7, towards completion of our time in Inazuma, for instance.
If anything, it’s about time Inazuma provided a cat-coded character. After all, the cats of Asase Shrine are perhaps the very best part of the area (though possibly that’s simply to us). Certainly, it will be interesting to see if this possible character holds any relation to Neko.
The Geo component might not remain in an especially strong area in the meta today, however with this report comes hope that the character will be modernised to play well with Dendro, or at least provide Geo a brand-new lease on life.
