Genshin Impact update 2.5 leaks: Yae Miko, Ganyu rerun, Ayato, release date

Leaks from Genshin Impact 2.5 have unveiled a slew of new characters and elements, giving gamers a glimpse at what's to come. Several leaks from Genshin Impact 2.5 have provided details about new characters and banner replays. While many players will be focusing on the 2.3 updates and conserving their Primogems for the arrival of Yun Jin and Shenhe, a handful of 2.5 details have surfaced online.

The long-awaited appearance of Yae Miko, the Chief Priestess of Inazuma's Grand Narukami Shrine, is said to be included in Genshin Impact's 2.5 updates. There are even rumours that a Ganyu rerun would appear with Yae, so there's something to look forward to for both new and old gamers. While it's still early in the game's development, we've compiled a list of all the Genshin Impact 2.5 leaks and rumours in anticipation of the impending update.

Genshin Impact 2.5 release date

MiHoYo has yet to announce a release date for 2.5, although the Genshin Impact Version 2.4 upgrade is expected to arrive in January 2022. As a result, the 2.5 upgrades is expected to arrive in February. While this may appear to be a long time away, it will allow players to save Primogems for Yae Miko and Ganyu. This release window will undoubtedly come as a comfort to those hoping to unlock Arataki Itto and Shenhe.

Genshin Impact update 2.5 Livestream

MiHoYo has yet to announce the Genshin Impact 2.5 Livestream, but we'll most likely hear something closer to the release date. The official stream will be hosted by the devs on Twitch, with the customary promo code giveaways and character presentations. When the announcement is live, we'll embed the official Genshin Impact Twitch feed above for your convenience.

Yae Miko banner release date

Yae Miko will be released alongside the 2.5 updates, according to legendary Genshin Impact leaker @Ubatcha1. While no footage of Yae Miko's abilities has been released, it is presently assumed that the Shrine Priestess would command the Electro element.

This storey is based on her purple eyes and the visible Electro Vision embedded in her golden earrings. It's unclear how she'll employ her electrical skills, but many players assume she'll be a Catalyst user who uses ranged electrical strikes on her adversaries. More information will most certainly be published in the following months, so we'll update this area as soon as we receive it.

Ganyu rerun banner release date

The Ganyu repeat banner has yet to receive an official release date from MiHoYo, but one Genshin Impact leaker believes she will appear in the 2.5 updates. According to rumours, the Ganyu's repeat will be released alongside Yae, allowing travellers who missed out on the Plenilune Gaze in Version 1.2 to finally unlock her.

Ayato release date

Ayato's release date in Genshin Impact is currently unknown. However, in the 2.4 beta, @Ubatcha1 discovered some information on Ayaka's brother. Ayato is a sword user with a male physical type, according to the leaker. Ayato could come out much sooner than 2.5, but current evidence suggests that miHoYo is getting ready to make his debut.
