In Genshin Impact, the new Patch 1.6 has launched. On Twitter, the developers provided insight into the period after the update, introducing the two new characters Sayu and Ayaka.
What kind of characters are they? Sayu and Ayaka are two new characters for Genshin Impact, who were already mentioned in a leak about Patch 1.7.
While we still do not know if the two will actually appear with the upcoming patch in July, there is now official information from the developers about Sayu and Ayaka, which we have summarized for you.
Sayu – the character who stopped growing
Who is Sayu? Sayu is a new character who looks rather childlike. According to her backstory, Sayu stopped growing a long time ago. She also loves to hide in trees.
- Sayu is a ninja
- Her element is Anemo
- She uses a claymore as a weapon
What do we know from leaks? From the leaks, we also know some additional details about her and her abilities. However, these are not officially confirmed:
- She is supposed to be a 4-star character
- Her elemental abilities allow her to create powerful Anemo explosions by tapping the corresponding button.
- Holding the button transforms her into a ball, allowing her to roll around the battlefield without consuming stamina.
- She also has an AoE skill that heals team members in the vicinity.
Ayaka – a really strong character?
Who is Ayaka? Miss Ayaka belongs to the Kamisato clan from Inazuma. She is regarded as graceful, polite, and virtuous. Ayaka works with her brother Ayato, who leads the clan.
- Ayaka uses Cryo as her element
- She wields a sword as a weapon
What do we know from the leaks? There was already a larger leak about Ayaka, according to which she could be one of the best characters in Genshin Impact:
- Her base stats are supposed to be very high already.
- She has strong combo abilities.
- Cryo synergizes well with Pyro.
Ayaka could thus inherit the character Ganyu as a strong damage dealer. Because Ganyu also relies on the Cryo element and is considered quite strong. Therefore, you should definitely keep an eye on Ayaka.
According to the leak, Ayaka is also supposed to be a 5-star character.
