Genshin Impact fans have a treat coming their way. HoYoVerse just pulled a fast one, revealing not one, but two new characters who will join the popular action-RPG. What’s even better? Both are set to arrive in the game with the very next major update. This is exciting news, especially since players have already met these characters within the game’s story. Now, they’ll finally get to add them to their teams.
The two characters causing all the buzz are Lauma and Aino. HoYoVerse introduced them both on the same day. Lauma is known as the “Eternal Moon Hymn.” She’s a saintess of the forest and uses Wood element powers. Then there’s Aino, charmingly called the “Tinkering Wonder Machine.” She’s a young inventor who wields a Water Vision. Both Lauma and Aino made their first appearances in the game’s Ineffa Trailer, so players might recognize them already.
Here’s a look at the official reveals:
Players are already buzzing about what new strategies these characters might bring. Their specific combat abilities are still a secret, which only adds to the excitement. We’ll all have to wait for the next patch notes to drop to learn more about how Lauma and Aino will shake up the game. Genshin Impact is free to play right now across multiple devices. You can find it on PS4, PS5, PC, and on mobile phones via iOS and Android.
