Genshin Impact5.2 character banner leaks are hinting at a very promising rerun that will end a character’s long absence from the game. Version 5.2 is still weeks away as HoYoverse’s action RPG is entering Version 5.1’s contents. The current patch will add new Natlan-related Archon Quests and introduce Xilonen as both an NPC and playable character. She will be the only new playable character in the update.Xilonen inGenshin Impactis a 5-star Geo sword user who works as a support character in team comps, reducing enemies’ RES against the Elemental Types used by the party.
While the contents of Version 5.1, including its limited-time events, have yet to be explored, details about Version 5.2 are starting to emerge. The developer itself, for example, has confirmed that Chasca and Ororon will make their debuts in the next update, though it did not reveal more details about the characters. Nevertheless, the beta tests for Version 5.2 have started and, with them, several leaks are being shared. This includes leaked details aboutChasca’s abilities inGenshin Impact5.2, for instance, as well as the possible lineup for character banners throughout the duration of the next big update.
Genshin Impact 5.2 Character Banners Have Leaked
Chasca & Ororon’s Releases Are Confirmed
A very early leak about the structure of Version 5.2’s possible character banners has been shared by the leaker known as Flying Flame. Shared in a post tagged as “Suspicious” onReddit, the leak shows that Chasca and Ororon will appear in banners.They will allegedly be accompanied by a rerun of Klee, as well as rerun banners for Albedo and Venti. The exact order in which these characters will appear is uncertain, even if the post’s structure indicates Chasca, Ororon, and Klee will be in Phase 1 banners, while Albedo and Venti will be in Phase 2 banners.
While unconfirmed by HoYoverse, Chasca is rumored to be the new 5-star character inGenshin Impact5.2, whereas Ororon is said to be a 4-star unit – this would mean he will become available in the general loot pool after his debut.
Albedo’s Rumored Rerun In Genshin Impact 5.2 Breaks A Two-Year Absence
The Character Did Appear In The Chronicled Wish In 2024
Among all the rumored characters for Version 5.2, the most interesting aspect of the leak is Albedo’s rerun. The 5-star Geo character has not had a dedicated banner appearance in over two years. For reference,the last time Albedo appeared in a dedicated banner was in Version 3.1– his banner ran between mid-October 2022 and early November 2022. His absence from the game has been long noted and pleas for an Albed rerun among the community have been great, despite the release of new Geo characters who surpass his usefulness, such as Chiori inGenshin Impact.
With an ever-growing roster of characters and, therefore, the absence of more characters from the banners, the developer created a system called Chronicled Wish earlier this year. This special banner type featured several characters and weapons that have been absent from the game for a long time and, among the featured loot pool was Albedo. As such, technically,players could have obtained Albedo between March and April this year. However, Chronicled Wish is a fairly messy banner type in the game when compared to dedicated banners, which made pulling forAlbedo inGenshin Impactduring the period a bit tougher.
Genshin Impact’s Character Building Is Getting A Whole Lot Easier
Several new quality-of-life updates are arriving to Genshin Impact, and one of them is going to make building characters a much smoother experience.
It is worth noting thatthe leak explicitly says that these rumored characters for Version 5.2 are not part of a Mondstadt-related Chronicled Wish. This seems to indicate that the aforementioned characters in Flying Flame’s leak will all have their own banners in Version 5.2. If this is true, Albedo will finally have his own dedicated banner in over two years, offering players a better chance at obtaining either him, his signature 5-star weapon, or increasing his Constellation level, should they already own the character inGenshin Impact.
Genshin Impact 5.2’s Leaked Rerun Characters Line Up With Another Important Leak
There May Be A Dragonspine Event In The Update
Despite the fact that the leak is tagged as “Suspicious” and the information is arriving in a very early stage of the Version 5.2 beta tests, there is reason to believe that the rumors are true. This is becausethe specified rerun characters somewhat align with another Version 5.2 leak. One of the most notable rumored aspects of the update is that there will allegedly be aDragonspine event inGenshin Impact5.2, which will take players back to the icy mountain. Dragonspine itself is located in the Mondstadt region and the rumored event may be the update’s flagship event.
Seeing that Version 5.2 is confirmed to not have any new Natlan-related Archon Quests, the Dragonspine event may be the largest and most important piece of content during the patch. If this is the case, then havingthree rerun characters from Mondstadt would thematically line up with the leaked event. While they may not be directly linked to the rumored Dragonspine event’s contents, Klee and Venti are important Mondstadt characters. Albedo already has an important link to Dragonspine itself, which lends more credibility to his leaked rerun inGenshin Impact5.2 if the banner leaks are true.
Nothing prevents Venti and Klee from appearing during the rumored Dragonspine event, as no details about what it will entail have been leaked so far.
Genshin Impact 5.2’s Leaked Rerun Characters Should Be Considered With Caution
Early Rerun Leaks Are Subject To Change
Even though there is some prospect of credibility to the banner leaks based on the other Version 5.2 leaks, these character banner rumors should be considered with extreme caution. Chasca and Ororon’s debut is already guaranteed by the developer, but rerun characters tend to be a bit more tricky. Flying Flame mentions that the leak is based on an educated guess and, beyond that,rerun characters are often changed during the beta tests, so an initial leak, as early as this one, is highly subject to changebefore theGenshin Impact5.2 livestream, which confirms all 5-star character banners.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks: Mavuika Is Making Me Hopeful For The Game’s Future, Four Years Later
There have been new leaks about Mavuika’s gameplay kit in Genshin Impact 5.3, and they sound extremely promising, even if four years late.
Based on the game’s regular six-week schedule for updates, the Version 5.2 livestream should occur on November 8, two weeks before the patch’s possible release on November 20. Despite how the leaks should be taken with a grain of salt, the prospect of a dedicated Albedo rerun in the update is promising – and it sparks hope for other anticipated character reruns, includingWriothesley inGenshin Impact.
