Genshin Impact version 5.2 will introduce two new playable characters, as developer HoYoverse announced today. Cha🔯sca and Ororon will make their debut, adding Anemo and E♎lectro to the Natlan roster respectively. 

Chasca has appeared in Natlan quests already, so we know her to be an Anemo bow user. She's known𒁏 as a "Peacemaker" locally, settling disputes around the region, especially near the home of her sister Chuychu, whose parents adopted her. Surprisingly, Chasca's backstory echoes that of OG 4-star Razor: she was raised by creatures called Qucusaurs in the wild. 

Ororon, meanwhile, has generally only been spotted in trailers so far. It's clear from the latest Archon quest teaser that he'll have a bigger role to play in Acts 3 and 4 coming in update 5.1. In his teaser art, he's described as the "Shadow of the Night-Wind," a nod to one of the six tribes of Natlan, with the Constellation𝐆 "Vampyrum Spectrum." 

Whether Chasca and Ororon will be 5-star or 4🙈-star characters is currently unknown, but Chasca at least is poised to be a 5-star character, as she already seems to have her own custom 5-star weapon based on her quest appearꦕance. 

Hours before the teasers for Chasca and Ororon, HoYoverse revealed the banner lineup for the first half of update 5.1♛, which wജill introduce Xilonen and rerun Chiori. Their s🍷hared four stars are Candace, Collei, and Dori – three of the weakest 4-stars in the game overall. 

It's taken 4 years and roughly $900 million, but Genshin Impact is a better open-world RPG than ever after update 5.0.
