Exclusive Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Game-Changing Arlecchino Element and Weapon Type

New details surrounding the character Arlecchino from Genshin Impact have been leaked, shedding light on one of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. These Harbingers are known for their immense power and are aligned with the Fatui, one of the primary opposing factions within the world of Teyvat. The Cryo Archon Tsaritsa oversees all Harbingers, ruling over Snezhnaya - the anticipated seventh major region to be added to Genshin Impact. While only a select few Harbingers have been officially introduced within the game, their presence was confirmed during the "A Winter Night's Lazzo" trailer, where they gathered to mourn the loss of their fellow Harbinger, La Signora (real name Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter).

According to rumors, upcoming regions in Genshin Impact will feature new Harbingers, with Arlecchino and Sandrone rumored to play a crucial role in Fontaine. A reputable leaker, Hutaosub77, has shared information on Arlecchino, including her use of the Pyro element and sword as a primary weapon. It is important to note that this information should be taken with caution, as Arlecchino's official release is still months away. Fans have expressed their excitement for a new Harbinger with Pyro abilities. In the official storyline, Arlecchino, also known as "The Knave," leads a renowned orphanage in Snezhnaya that has raised important characters in the region. It remains to be seen if all Harbingers will have offensive kits, as Wanderer and Childe have been introduced as powerful DPS units.

Despite previously being an Electro user, Wanderer now utilizes the Anemo element in the playable version of the character. It is possible that if Arlecchino becomes playable, her Vision may change from Pyro to something else, as hinted in Tartaglia's voice line. While she initially appears to be a loyal servant, she may betray the Tsaritsa if given the opportunity. To learn more about this intriguing character, players will likely have to wait until the release of Genshin Impact version 4.0, which is expected to arrive in mid-August. As Arlecchino is set to be a main villain, she will likely make her debut in the first Fontaine update.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
