After a series of Tweets on leaked data-mined information on Genshin Impact characters, we now have a list of new playable characters, some new, some previously leaked, coming to Genshin Impact with version 1.7 update and beyond. 

New Inazuma Playable Characters coming to Genshin Impact with update 1.7 and beyond

Here is the list of characters that you can expect to release with the Genshin Impact 1.7 and beyond update.

  • Tohma – Pyro Polearm user from Inazuma.
  • Yae – Electro Catalyst user from Inazuma.
  • Sara – Electro Bow user from Inazuma.
  • Shogun – Electro Polearm user from Inazuma.
  • Kokomi – Hydro Catalyst user.
  • Yoimiya – Pyro Bow user from Inazuma.
  • Sayu – Anemo Claymore user from Inazuma.
  • Ayaka – Cryo Sword user from Inazuma.

In the above list of characters, we already have leaked, as well as official information on almost all characters except Kokomi.

As you can see in the above tweet from Project Celestia, Kokomi looks a lot similar to Mimi. Now whether Mimi got a rework or Kokomi being a completely new character, is yet to be known. You can even say that Mimi’s full name can be Kokomi, where Mimi is just a nickname. However, that is far-fetched for now, especially because we have non-existent information on her.

Another thing to notice here is the Electro Archon Baal, aka Shogun, is a Polearm user as per leaked information. Now to be clear, leaks are subject to change. So you can expect a change with Baal’s weapon of choice.

Secondly, as per Project Celestia the data-mined files were named as “Avatar_Lady_Pole_Shougun”. So there are three things that we can make out of this file name.

  • The Pole part can be a mistake from miHoYo’s end.
  • Pole was kept intentionally to misdirect leakers’.
  • Baal is indeed a Polearm user with her ability to take the form of a katana-like weapon.
  • Baal is Eletro Archon + Lightning is like a spear = Baal is a Polearm user. [Scrap this one out]

Whatever is the case, we will update you all, when there is a new piece of information.

Genshin Impact is a free to play gacha-based role-playing game currently available on PC, PS4, Android, and iOS.
