Arlecchino

Arlecchino, also known as The Knave, is a Fatui enforcer. This character plays a crucial role in the storyline of the God of Mischief in Fontaine. For a long time, players have predicted her to become a Pyro character, wielding a polearm, with a 5-star rarity, and of course, playable in Genshin Impact.

Due to Arlecchino's background as a Fatui enforcer, she has been eagerly awaited by many gamers for her backstory, powers, skill set, and more. According to many predictions, this character may appear on a limited-time banner in the Genshin Impact 4.6 update. Following the game's update cycle, Arlecchino could debut in May or June 2024.

Clorinde

Clorinde is one of Fontaine's champion swordsmen, beloved by many Genshin Impact gamers for her calm yet powerful demeanor. Additionally, her charming and well-rounded personality captures the hearts of many. Recent leaks suggest that Clorinde is a character who wields a single sword with an Electro vision, possibly also using a gun similar to the story trailer.

Moreover, according to various sources, Clorinde is expected to be playable in Genshin Impact version 4.7. Therefore, we can also confirm that she will likely debut in June or July in 2024, one version after Arlecchino.

Murata

The gods in the continent of Teyvat are always a top priority for Genshin Impact players due to their immense power. Not to mention, these Genshin Impact characters have intricately crafted storylines. Following the plot twists and emotional moments of Hydro Archon Furina in Fontaine, the Pyro Archon Murata will continue the players' journey in the war-torn nation of Natlan.

Currently, HoYoverse has only released certain images of Murata, and recent leaker activity has slowed down, so Mytour doesn't have much information about him yet. However, we can speculate that the Pyro Archon's release will likely fall around versions 5.2 - 5.3 if we follow the release schedule of previous Archons.

Skirk

Ever since Skirk was mentioned in Childe's character story years ago, the gaming community has been eagerly anticipating more information about her appearance, backstory, and gameplay. In late 2023, Genshin Impact players finally got to see images and hear the voice of Skirk through the God of Mischief quest in Fontaine.

Although there's no information about the release date or leaks confirming the feasibility of playing this Genshin Impact character, gamers hope she'll debut in 2024, as Skirk's character model has been completed. Mytour suggests that if you miss her too much, you can try Honkai: Star Rail and play as Jingliu because the appearance of these two characters looks quite similar.

Capitano

Capitano (The Captain) is one of the Fatui enforcers in Genshin Impact, he has been hailed as one of the 'most powerful individuals on the continent' by the Viktor and Childe brothers. Numerous sources have previously recounted The Captain currently being somewhere in the land of Natlan and may very well play a major antagonistic role in the region's storyline.

Capitano exudes an aura of authority and mystery befitting of his title as 'the captain,' as seen in his debut appearance in the Teyvat Chapter - The Winter's Act video released by HoYoverse. While there's no confirmation that The Captain will debut in 2024, it's not entirely implausible, or perhaps he might debut alongside GTA VI in 2025, what do you think?

However, the character currently of most interest to Genshin Impact players is Xianyun (Lưu Vân Tá Phong Chân Quân) as she promises to introduce new gameplay mechanics, possesses an enchanting appearance, and, above all, has been officially teased by HoYoverse, set to debut in patch 4.4. You can learn more about this character in other Genshin Impact articles by Mytour.
