A significant leak regarding Genshin Impact has unveiled further details about the characters that will be showcased in the Version 5.2 banners. Each update of Genshin Impact is divided into two banner cycles, with each cycle offering a range of limited characters for a period of approximately three weeks.
The second double banner for update 5.0 is currently active, featuring the new Dendro character Kinich from Genshin Impact and the illustrious Inazuma Archon, Raiden Shogun. HoYoverse, the developer, has confirmed the introduction of four limited five-star characters in the upcoming update 5.1.
Although update 5.1 has not yet been officially released on the live servers, recent leaks have suggested which playable characters may be available in Genshin Impact update 5.2. A post on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit indicates that update 5.2 will introduce two new characters, Chasca and Ororon, who have previously appeared in the Natlan storyline. Chasca is anticipated to be a five-star character, while Ororon is expected to be a four-star character. Consequently, it is likely that update 5.2 will also include three character reruns, similar to the current update 5.1. The leak further suggests that Chasca will be accompanied by three established characters from Mondstadt: Albedo, Klee, and Venti.
Genshin Impact Leak Hints at 5.2 Banner Characters
- Chasca – Five-star Anemo user
- Albedo – Five-star Geo sword user
- Venti – Five-star Anemo user
- Klee – Five-star Pyro user
- Ororon – Four-star Electro user
Chasca, like many characters from Natlan, first appeared in the teaser video for Genshin Impact titled “A Name Forged in Flames.” Since her initial introduction, she has made several appearances within the game, establishing her as an Anemo user. Recent leaks indicate that Chasca will feature a unique gun mechanic associated with her Nightsoul points. Additionally, she is expected to possess the ability to hover in the air, akin to another Anemo user from Genshin Impact, the popular Wanderer.
Currently, there is limited information available regarding Ororon, aside from his association with Capitano, the primary antagonist in the Pyro nation. A compelling fan theory within the Genshin Impact community posits that Ororon may be another Fatui Harbinger. However, a significant counterargument to this theory is the speculation that Ororon will be classified as a four-star unit, while all previously introduced Harbingers have been five-star characters.
Numerous fans in the comments express their astonishment at the possibility of HoYoverse featuring three Mondstadt characters on a double banner. Among these characters, Venti is deemed the most likely to be included, as it is anticipated that HoYoverse will maintain its trend of incorporating a Genshin Impact Archon in each update following the introduction of a new major region.
