A reliable source in theGenshin Impactcommunity has revealed the full lineup of new characters in Version 6.0, as fans can look forward to playing Aino, Flins, and Lauma in the debut patch of Nod-Krai. With Nod-Krai officially unveiled on July 22,Genshin Impactplayers have a much better idea of what to expect from the next region of Teyvat. Unlike previous Archon Quests, the Song of the Welkin Moon will last for a full year, wrapping up all loose storylines in time for the Traveler’s final confrontation with the Tsaritsa.
ThenewGenshin Impacttrailerrevealed over half the cast of Nod-Krai, and already a few favorites have begun to emerge, with Flins and Varka leading the popularity contest on social media. While Varka comes with years of hype as the missing Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, Flins has a far humbler origin, that of a Lightkeeper of Nod-Krai, only recently unveiled.
According to hxg_diluc, and backed up by Seele Leaks, Flins will join Aino and Lauma as the three newGenshin Impactcharactersof Version 6.0. Flins will be a 5-Star Electro Polearm, making his debut during the first half of the update, while Lauma will headline the second half as a 5-Star Dendro Catalyst. Lastly, Aino will join the Traveler in Nod-Krai as a 4-Star Hydro Claymore. Players will be able to obtain Aino for free, primarily for the purposes of being able to solve Lunar puzzles in Nod-Krai.
Aino– 4-Star Hydro Claymore
Lauma– 5-Star Dendro Catalyst
It remains to be seen which 5-Star characters will accompany Lauma and Flins on the Event Banners in Version 6.0, but the latter is expected to have notable synergy withIneffa inGenshin Impact. As such, players interested in Flins should stock up on Primogems during Version 5.8 and make a decision on whether to invest in Ineffa now or see how Flins' teammates will evolve over the course of Nod-Krai.
On the other hand, Lauma is expected to largely provide off-field support for Bloom, opening up different team options for Hydro characters likeNilou inGenshin Impact. It should be noted that another Dendro character, Nefer, is rumored to debut in Version 6.4 as a hypercarry. It remains to be seen how Nod-Krai will play out from a gameplay standpoint. For now, fans should look forward to the beta for Version 6.0, slated to commence on July 30. The patch itself will launch on September 10.
