Genshin Impact’s version 2.5 just debuted, and together with it, a wide amount of leaks related to the game’s upcoming versions were also revealed, showcasing not only the full moveset, animations, talents, constellations, and abilities of the game’s upcoming 5-star Hydro Sword user Kamisato Ayato but also the first glimpses of the upcoming 5-star hydro archer Yelan. With that said, here’s everything that leaked regarding the upcoming 5-star character Yelan.
Genshin Impact Yelan Leaks: Release Date, Weapon, and More
As we said above, according to the leaks, Yelan will be a 5-star Hydro Archer. With that said, outside of her character model and vision, which were leaked by Twitter user @anonsbelle, not much concrete information surfaced regarding her playstyle or lore. Release date-wise, according to known leaker Ubatcha, there is a chance that Yelan will be the featured character of the game’s version 2.7, which many believe will debut on either the second half of March or the first half of April 2022. Also according to Ubatcha, there is a chance that the game’s upcoming 4-star Shinobu, who is also a member of the Arataki Gang, will be featured in the upcoming version. It’s important to point out that the leaks regarding her release date, as well as the release of Shinobu, are considered by Ubatcha themselves as questionable, and thus should be taken with a gran of salt until further confirmation by either them or other trustworthy sources in the community.
Weapon-wise, many sources in the community believe that Yelan’s featured weapon will indeed be the upcoming 5-star bow only known as ”Kirin”, a weapon featured in the game’s data for a few months now. You can check out a render of both Yelan and her rumored signature weapon below, courtesy of @anonsbelle:
