Now that Genshin Impact Version 3.0 is just around the corner and we’ve already been given glimpses of Sumeru and Dendro, it’s about time leaks from Version 3.1 and onwards started pouring in. Recent leaks have revealed the upcoming playable characters to be released in the Updates following Version 3.0. Players can decide now if they want to spend on Tighnari and the other rerun characters or wait for the new upcoming characters in future updates.
Character Banners After Version 3.0
We already know the release dates of the upcoming patches right up until Version 3.3. Now we also have an idea of what new characters might be released in the next patches. According to leakers, here’s what future character banners in upcoming updates might look like- at least when it comes to new characters.
- Version 3.1-
- Nilou: Hydro, 5-star.
- Cyno: Electro (Speculation), 5-star.
- Candace: Hydro, 4-star.
- Version 3.2-
- Nahida/Kusanali: Dendro, 5-star.
- Layla (Potentially): 4-star.
- Version 3.3-
- Scaramouche/Wanderer: Anemo (Speculation), 5-star.
- Faruza: 4-star.
Since we already know that the Dendro Archon quest will last till Version 3.2, it’s expected for Nahida or Kusanali to be released around that time, seeing how she’s the new Dendro Archon as the ‘Lesser Lord Kusanali.’
We already knew Scaramouche would become playable in Sumeru, and we’re lucky to be potentially getting him as early as Version 3.3, which is scheduled to release on the 7th of December, 2022. As for his element, all leaks and speculations point to him being an Anemo unit for now.
The interesting thing about this leak is that we don’t see some of the familiar names like Alhaitham and Dehya, who were both featured in the recent Sumeru previews and trailers as significant characters of the upcoming Sumeru quests. Perhaps for now, Hoyoverse is just building hype about them which makes sense because when they are finally released mid-Sumeru or late-Sumeru, the sales will be high.
