Genshin Impact Version 5.5 Banner Characters Leaked
Genshin Impact 5.5 Leaks are hinting at Varesa, Xilonen, and Xianyun banners in the upcoming version! Venti might also get a rerun, which would be awesome since it would complete the yearly Archon cycle.
The Natlan era has been full of amazing banners with popular characters, but some less popular ones like Shenhe, Ganyu, and Kokomi haven’t had reruns in over a year. The Liyue Chronicled Banner helped a bit, but with so many new characters, players are wondering if we’ll start seeing triple banners soon.
Xilonen’s quick rerun makes sense because she’s super popular and really good in the current meta. Lots of players who were saving for the Pyro Archon will probably pull for her. Xianyun’s rerun also fits since the Spiral Abyss is favouring Plunging teams right now, and that goes perfectly with Varesa’s Plunge hypercarry playstyle.
We don’t know for sure who’ll be on the last banner, but Venti seems like the most likely choice since it would complete the annual Archon run.
Genshin Impact: Version 5.5 Banner Characters
- Varesa – 5-Star Electro Catalyst
- Xilonen – 5-Star Geo Sword
- Xianyun – 5-Star Anemo Catalyst
- Venti* – 5-Star Anemo Bow
Venti’s profitability has declined compared to his previous rerun in Version 4.1, where Wriothesley significantly outperformed him in revenue generation. While Kinich and Raiden’s banner revenues were closer, Venti’s popularity has waned. Despite Natlan’s tendency to break patterns and the rumoured Windblume Festival’s return after Version 5.5, Venti’s rerun is unlikely to be postponed further.
Although it’s premature to speculate on accompanying 4-Stars, players anticipate Iansan’s pairing with Varesa due to their synergy, mirroring Ororon and Chasca’s dynamic. Iansan’s preference for mobile hypercarries aligns with Varesa’s abilities. Further details regarding Event Banners are expected during the March 14, 2025 developer livestream.
