New Fontaine Character Revealed in Latest Genshin Impact Leaks

According to recent leaks, Genshin Impact may be breaking tradition in Fontaine with a potentially large number of new characters. A reliable source has revealed that Version 3.7 will be the last of the Sumeru content cycle, with Kirara being the final addition. Version 3.8 will instead bring back the long-awaited character Eula. The Sumeru updates have already added 17 playable characters, matching the number introduced during Inazuma's story. While leaks have given us a sneak peek at new Fontaine characters like Wriothesley, the total number remains a mystery to the Genshin Impact community. However, with the success of recent newcomers such as Nahida and Nilou, and the demand for triple banners, it's likely that HoYoverse will continue to release new characters without delay, given the game's undeniable profitability.

According to HutaoLover77, a well-known and reliable Genshin Impact leaker, the upcoming Fontaine region will likely have a total of 17 characters, and possibly 18 if Arlecchino, a Fatui Harbinger, becomes playable in future updates. Fans have been eagerly anticipating Arlecchino's introduction since the "A Winter Night's Lazzo" teaser, and it would be a pleasant surprise if she breaks the trend of 17 characters per region.

The Fontaine region promises to be a darker and more complex chapter in the Genshin Impact story, confronting issues of wealth inequality, climate change, and rebellion in a steampunk nation that worships the Goddess of Justice, Focalors. While most of the leaked characters come from Fontaine, Liyue is also expected to receive some love. Whether or not the oft-overlooked Geo element gets any attention from HoYoverse remains to be seen, but players can anticipate the appearance of at least one Geo character in Version 4.0.

Fragment 3: In addition to the opening of the gates of Fontaine in Version 3.8 of Genshin Impact, players can also expect a new temporary zone along with a captivating storyline that heavily features Klee and Eula as the main characters. To further enhance the gameplay experience, the update will also introduce new content for Kaeya, one of the game's beloved 4-Star characters, including a new skin and an official hangout event. With a release window for Version 3.8 set for mid-July, players can anticipate exploring the nation of Fontaine and interacting with its diverse cast of characters in no time.
