Check out details about Xinyan, a character that will arrive in the next Genshin Impact banner

Xinyan is the newest character in miHoYo's Genshin Impact, joining the game soon with Zhongli.

On November 27, miHoYo published several new details and a trailer for Xinyan, the new character coming soon with Zhongli in Genshin Impact (PC, PS4, PS5, Mobile, Switch soon). Both Xinyan and Zhongli will be available in a few days via a new featured limited gacha banner. As usual with every character intro trailer so far, the one for Xinyan is incredibly well directed, showing off her rock style.

If you aren’t lucky enough (or whale enough) to own Diluc, Xinyan is the easier to earn replacement. She also is a Pyro Vision user and Claymore user. Xinyan is a four star character, and will receive a gacha drop boost in the upcoming Zhongli banner.

The Genshin Impact Version 1.1 stream revealed Xinyan for the first time, alongside Diona, and how Childe and Zhongli would become playable. While there’s no date yet, it’s likely the Zhongli and Xinyan banner will start a few hours after the ongoing Childe banner ends.

Genshin Impact Xinyan Elemental Skill, Elemental Burst Explained:

• Xinyan ‧ Blazing Riff
•  Liyue’s sole rock ‘n’ roll musician
•  Vision: Pyro
• Constellation: Fila Ignium

Xinyan’s Elemental Skill is a Pyro Elemental blow with her guitar, dealing Pyro damage to nearby enemies and creating a shield. Xinyan’s Def stat determines the amount of damage the shield can absorb. The shield’s level scales with the number of enemies hit with the Elemental Skill.

When triggering her Elemental Burst, Xinyan quickly plays her guitar, emitting sound waves to knock back enemies. This deals physical damage to surrounding enemies. Moreover, Xinyan burns her surroundings with her rock atmosphere, dealing continuous Pyro elemental damage to surrounding enemies.
