Every Character Banner Leaked For Genshin Impact 5.3 So Far

So far, Mavuika, Citlali, and Yan Lan have officially been confirmed to debut throughout Genshin Impact’s 5.3 update, coming on January 1. Meanwhile, recent leaks claim to know several other four-star and five-star characters potentially coming in the 5.3 update’s Event Wish Banners. If all the recent leaks and rumors are true, Genshin Impact’s 5.3 update will be stacked with new and returning playable characters.

Recent leaks suggest that multiple five-star characters may receive their first-ever rerun in Genshin Impact’s 5.3 Event Wish Banners and that the Chronicled Wish Banner will return. Additionally, the 5.3 update will allegedly feature at least three Cryo characters, potentially more in the Chronicled Wish Banner, which is a cause for celebration after the year-long drought of Cryo characters in Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact’s Leaked 5.3 Event Wish Banner Characters

• Mavuika
• Citlali
• Arlecchino
• Clorinde
• Lan Yan
• Chevreuse
• Rosaria
• Diona
• Bennet

Mavuika

Many players have been waiting for the chance to obtain the Natlan region’s Archon as a playable character since the start of the Natlan region arc in Genshin Impact, and according to the recent leaks from HomDGCat and several other sources, the 5.3 update is expected to finally deliver this opportunity. Based on recent leaks for Mavuika’s ability kit, this five-star Pyro Claymore character will serve as an on-field DPS unit.

Citlali

Citlali is believed to be a five-star Cryo Catalyst character who serves as a shield support unit. While shield support characters in Genshin Impact often get overlooked compared to healers and battery support characters, Citlali being a five-star character could mean that this character might still have a place in the current meta.

Arlecchino

In both lore and gameplay, Genshin Impact’s Fatui Harbingers are generally powerful characters, and Arlecchino lives up to this reputation. Arlecchino is a Pyro Polearm character who serves as a DPS unit, and her ability to naturally buff herself with Bond of Life mechanics, sacrificing her health to increase her damage, makes Arlecchino compatible with a wide variety of team compositions.

Clorinde

While Clorinde is a strong DPS unit, she’s arguably the underdog of Genshin Impact’s 5.3 Event Wish Banners, given that she’ll be potentially competing with an Archon or a Fatui Harbinger in the same update. Still though, for the players who have been waiting for a rerun of this Ousia-aligned, five-star Electro sword character, not getting Clorinde in the 5.3 update means players will have to potentially wait a year for another Clorinde rerun, based on Genshin Impact’s rerun waiting list for five-star characters ahead of the 5.3 update.

If the leaks are true, the 5.3 update will be Arlecchino and Clorinde’s first rerun banners since they were introduced in the 4.6

and 4.7 updates, respectively.

Lan Yan

While Mavuika and Citlali were originally expected to be the only new characters in Genshin Impact’s 5.3 update, an official reveal from HoYoverse recently announced that Yan Lan will also debut in the 5.3 update. Yan Lan is believed to be a four-star Anemo Catalyst user who will have a shield support kit.

Chevreuse

Chevreuse is an Ousia-aligned, four-star Pyro polearm character with a support kit that offers buffs and healing to nearby teammates. Despite being a four-star character, Chevreuse is considered a top-tier support character in Genshin Impact, but exclusively for Pyro and Electro team compositions.

Rosaria

Rosaria is a four-star Cryo Polearm character with a support kit. Because of her short ability cooldowns, Rosaria is a strong Cryo battery, although she’s generally considered a victim of power creep in Genshin Impact who underperforms compared to more recently introduced characters.

Diona

Diona is a four-star Cryo Bow character with a shield and support ability kit. As both a shielder and a healer, Diona is versatile enough to work with a wide variety of team compositions. However, players looking for a new Cryo Shield unit may want to consider wishing for Citlali in Genshin Impact’s 5.3 Event Wish Banner.

Considering that it’s been over a year since a new or rerun Cryo character was last featured in
Genshin Impact
’s Event Wish Banners, Citlali, Rosaria, and Diona being available in the 5.3 update will provide players plenty of opportunities to expand their roster with more Cryo characters.

Bennet

Bennet is a four-star Pyro support character who is often considered to be one of the best supports due to his combined healing and damage buffs, which notably extend to other nearby players when playing in co-op. However, Bennet’s compatibility with a team composition entirely relies on his character Constellation upgrades. Specifically, at C6, Bennet’s Elemental Burst overrides other characters’ physical damage with Pyro damage, and this can make or break certain team compositions.

Genshin Impact’s Leaked 5.3 Chronicled Wish Banner Characters

Apart from the Event Wish Banners, recent leaks from Flying Flame also claim that the Chronicled Wish Banner could return to Genshin Impact in the 5.3 update. This would mark the second release of the Chronicled Wish Banner, and it’s expected to feature different characters and weapons this time around after previously featuring Mondstat characters. If these leaks are true, Genshin Impact’s 5.3 Chronicled Wish Banner will provide players with a chance to earn select five-star characters and weapons from the Liyue region.
