This wouldn’t be a major Genshin update without the addition of a few new playable characters. Genshin Impact 2.0 is adding Kamisato Ayaka, Yoimiya, and Sayu.

Ayaka is the daughter of the Yashiro Commission’s Kamisato Clan and she’s a five-star cryo sword user who works under the Shogun. Yoimiya is a five-star Pyro archer and a fireworks expert, earning herself the Queen of the Summer Festival nickname. Lastly, Sayu is a ninja and four-star claymore user who uses the power of Anemo to wield giant weapons.

Much like previous characters, you’ll get to know this trio through natural story progression as you complete new tasks. All three of these Inazuma residents will make their debut in the upcoming Archon quests for the new region. The Electro Archon Baal along with a few others are expected to be officially revealed as playable characters down the line as well.
