Genshin Impact 2.5 leaks: Yae Miko release date

New Genshin Impact 2.5 leaks appear to back up earlier reports that Yae Miko would appear on the initial wave of banners. Yae Miko was expected to appear in the first banner of Genshin Impact 2.5, according to previous leaks. Reruns of Kazuha and Raiden Shogun were also expected in the second half of the update, according to the same reports. Now, according to a fresh leak, she'll feature in the opening banner of Genshin Impact 2.5.

The report goes on to add that the other banner characters are currently unverified, thus players aren't privy to any more information on the upcoming Kazuha and Raiden Shogun replays. If the leaks are to be believed, Yae Miko will be released on February 16, 2022.

Genshin Impact 2.5 and Yae release dates leaked ahead of official announcement

The first banner will feature Yae Miko as a 5-star figure, according to this source. It's worth noting that this leak has no [Questionable] tag, implying that it's most likely real.

As of late, Genshin Impact has been functioning on a 21-day banner cycle, with version updates occurring every 42 days. The release date for Genshin Impact 2.4 was set for January 5, 2022. To get February 16, 2022, add 42 days to that.

Yae Miko's release date is the same as the version update if she appears on the first banner of Genshin Impact 2.5. As a result, the release date for both Genshin Impact 2.5 and Yae Miko should be February 16, 2022.

The same leaker also claims that a second 5-star character could appear in the initial wave of the 2.5 updates. However, until the next Livestream, there is unlikely to be any confirmation of that reality. Two 5-star character banners every cycle have been added to recent Genshin Impact updates. Fans may only speculate on whether or not there is a second 5-star character until then.

Other Yae Miko leaks

Characters whose whole kit has been leaked in video format are more likely to emerge in the next release. It's occurred before with characters like Shenhe and Itto, and it's happening now with Yae Miko. Her kit specifications have been leaked for a long, but new video leaks have provided more concrete evidence.

At the very least, it hints that Yae Miko will appear in Genshin Impact 2.5 at some point. According to the majority of reliable sources, she will most likely be released in the first half of that update.
