In version 4.1, two new characters named Wriothesley and Neuvillete have been confirmed. They will be part of the Hydro nation's story in the Fontaine region.
With a strong presence as a DPS character, Hu Tao has gained popularity. Her previous banner appearance holds the record for Genshin Impact's highest revenue. Additionally, Venti, an influential Anemo user, is anticipated to have a banner appearance in the latter half of the 4.1 update.
In an exciting Genshin Impact leak, it has been revealed that the beloved characters Hu Tao and Venti may be making a comeback in the highly anticipated update 4.1. With the introduction of the Fontaine region and its multitude of new characters, players can look forward to expanding their roster with these new playable units after a series of filler updates.
Additionally, Genshin Impact has already confirmed the arrival of two new characters in version 4.1: Wriothesley and Neuvillete. These characters have been prominently featured in Fontaine's story teasers, indicating that their narratives will be intertwined with the Hydro nation. Neuvillete, in particular, has also made multiple appearances in the game, showcasing immense power and establishing himself as one of Fontaine's most formidable figures.
Genshin Impact's ever-expanding playable roster has consistently been a major draw for players, leading to the inclusion of two characters in recent banner cycles. This unique gacha mechanic allows players to acquire two playable units simultaneously. A reliable leak shared by unclefurro reveals that Genshin Impact version 4.1 will introduce the return of two beloved characters, Hu Tao and Venti. Hu Tao will headline the first banner alongside Neuvillete, while Venti is expected to grace the second half.
Hu Tao, considered one of the top DPS characters in Genshin Impact, has gained popularity due to her unique playstyle that requires players to keep her below 50% HP. This means players must constantly monitor her health to prevent her from being defeated by a powerful boss attack. In the previous version 3.4, Hu Tao's banner appearance alongside Yelan set a revenue record for Genshin Impact.
Despite having been featured in previous banners, this Genshin Impact banner has still managed to attract a large number of sales. It would not be surprising if Hu Tao were to break the record again, especially considering her pairing with Neuvillete, who recent leaks suggest has one of the most powerful and unique abilities in the game. Many fans were anticipating Venti's return in a banner, as the usual pattern for HoYoverse is to feature one Archon per update after the introduction of a new major region.
A versatile Anemo user with great supportive abilities, Venti perfectly complements any team composition requiring neutral support. Pairing him with Wriothesley, the game's first confirmed Cryo catalyst user, enables the triggering of potent elemental reactions such as Melt or Frozen through their Normal Attacks.
Genshin Impact can be played on PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices, with a Switch version currently under development.
