Kokomi Sangonomiya will be the latest character in Genshin Impact. A new trailer for her has been released, providing a first taste of Kokomi’s story. What we know about her so far is summarized for you by MeinMMO in this article.
Update from September 20: In line with her release tomorrow, another trailer for her has been released (via YouTube).
Who is Kokomi Sangonomiya? Kokomi is, despite her young age, the “Divine Priestess” of Watatsumi Island, which belongs to Inazuma. She is also the ruler of this island. Furthermore, she leads the army that fights against the forces of Sara Kujou.
Kokomi possesses excellent strategic abilities and insight into military affairs. She is also responsible for foreign policy interests and is the representative for her nation. Her achievements have earned her respect and recognition among the residents of Watatsumi.
In contrast to others, she presents herself as a strong, gentle, and humorous ruler. However, she has a strong fear when facing others, has to engage socially, or give a speech. Kokomi prefers to retreat and quietly read books by Yae that deal with military strategies.
When can you obtain Kokomi? Kokomi will be available on September 21 in the new banner, replacing Raiden Shogun. Kokomi will be available in the banner for three weeks. Just before her release, the trailer was released by Genshin Impact:
