Genshin Impact reveals two new characters, Chasca and Ororon. They are set to enter the game with the new 5.2 update, and players will see Waifu and Husbando potential.
Who are Chasca and Ororon? HoYoverse today announced two new playable characters for Genshin Impact version 5.2: Chasca and Ororon. These two newcomers are the first Anemo and Electro characters from Natlan.
While Chasca, as an Anemo archer, has already appeared in Natlan’s quests, Ororon will make his big debut only in the upcoming Archon quests during Act 3 and 4. So far, he has only been seen in a few trailers.
It is still unclear whether the two newcomers will be 5-star or 4-star characters. At least there is a hint regarding Chasca. Many suspect that she will be introduced as a 5-star character since she had a unique signature weapon available in the story, which hints at a 5-star ranking.
The beautiful region of Natlan will soon welcome two new characters:
What is known about Chasca and Ororon
Who is Chasca? Chasca, known as the “Peacemaker,” is an Anemo user who fights with her bow. She is deeply rooted in the region of Natlan, where she is supposed to mediate disputes and bring peace. Her backstory is as compelling as it is tragic: Chasca was adopted by her sister Chuychu’s family after being raised by wild creatures in the jungle. The community is particularly excited about her legs:
- HeresiarchQin bluntly (via Reddit): “LEGS.”
- EuthymicHysteria is thrilled (via Reddit): “Oh my god, she is soooo beautiful, I can’t wait, I really hope she is fun to play!”
- Tiwat852 sees a new Waifu (via Reddit): “This leg activates my nerve cells.”
- Mongerian likes her (via Reddit): “She is beautiful! And I need more Anemo!”
Who is Ororon? Unlike Chasca, little is currently known about Ororon. He is referred to as the “Shadow of the Night Wind,” indicating a connection to one of the six tribes of Natlan. The atmosphere surrounding his teaser text suggests that he will play a deeper, mysterious role in the upcoming story. The community finds him very edgy:
- Ghavarus finds him very edgy (via Reddit): “It seems like he will be by far the edgiest character in Genshin.”
- Murky_Blueberry2617 draws a comparison (via Reddit): “He steals Diluc’s flow!”
- Maleficent_Tackle532 hopes Ororon can fly (via Reddit): “With Kinich came Spider-Man. I hope we get Batman with Ororon.”
- Y-Y20 sees an anime character in him (via Reddit): “My Ikuto from Shugo Chara can’t wait to draw for you! I love you.”
What does the upcoming update give us first? The new banner lineup for the first half of update 5.1 has also been released. This banner introduces Xilonen as the new 5-star character and includes a rerun of Chiori. They will be accompanied by these three 4-star characters: Candace, Collei, and Dori, who many players consider to be the weakest 4-star characters in the game.
Genshin Impact is an anime RPG from HoYoverse and a very popular game. However, this year several new anime RPGs have emerged that also deserve a chance: Even if you may not like it: An anime RPG beats Genshin Impact in combat and “Pokémon”.
