With the latest Genshin Impact 2.2 update, we get to see the rerun of some of our favourite characters. But we also have some new Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks with a new 5-star character.

Although Genshin Impact update 2.2 has just been released, fans are already craving the next update. Because there were no new five-star characters in the last patch, this one will be special. We’ve outlined all we know about version 2.3 so far, including its planned release date, trailer prospects, possible banners, and Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks from the scene’s top data-miners below.

Genshin Impact 2.3 New Character Abilities

Mihoyo has already announced the new characters coming to Genshin Impact in 2.3. But some of the Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks reveal the character abilities coming in the new update.

Arataki Itto Abilities

Arataki Itto is the upcoming 5-star character in Genshin Impact. He will be a Geo character with Oni blood in his veins. New Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks have revealed what Itto looks like and what his Elemental Skill and Burst can do, thanks to trusted leakers. His Elemental Skill and Burst have yet to be seen in action. The leaks, on the other hand, are so widespread that gamers already know what they’ll be doing in-game.

Itto’s Elemental Skill will be called Masatsu Zetsugi: Akaushi Burst! Where he throws a Ushi, a young Akashi Bull, that deals Geo damage to enemies. Itto can only summon one Ushi at a time considering Ushi is a Geo construct. Itto’s Normal, Charged and Plunging attacks all deal Geo damage. His DEF increases his attack. 

At all levels of this Elemental Skill, he will inherit 100% HP. Its Duration and Cooldown will also remain constant, at six and ten seconds, respectively. Itto’s Charged Attacks don’t cost any Stamina and deal a devastating blow when the final stack is used, thanks to Superlative Superstrength.

Gorou Abilities

Fans may now get a better look at Gorou’s talents, stats, and skills thanks to the latest Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks. Gorou significantly contributes to a Genshin Impact team, especially one that focuses on Geo damage.

Gorou’s Elemental Skill deals Geo damage and will give a significant buff based on the Geo element characters in your team. Gorou’s Elemental Burst increases the support power of his Elemental skill by a significant amount, giving him incredible support potential.

According to the Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks, Gorou will have a strong Elemental Burst. Here is a description of the Elemental Burst revealed by the Genshin Impact leakers.

  • Juuga: Forward Unto Victory
  • Gorou deals AoE Geo DMG and then creates a zone known as General’s Glory which buffs his allies.
  • The field provides the same buffs and effects as the General’s War Banner from his Elemental Skill, but it moves alongside the active character.
  • The field will deal AoE Geo DMG every 1.5 seconds to a single enemy within its zone.
  • It will also pull Shards created by Crystallize to the active character every 1.5 seconds.
  • Gorou can only have one General’s Glory on the field, and he will destroy his War Banner when he summons it.

Genshin Impact 2.3 Release date

Despite the fact that miHoYo has yet to formally declare a release date for the 2.3 update, past trends show that the majority of the game’s significant patches will arrive 42 days apart. With that in mind, we expect the release of Genshin Impact Version 2.3 in the last week of November.

Genshin Impact 2.3 Banners

Arataki Itto, the new 5-star Geo character is bound to get his own banner. Along with him, Gorou will be a 4-star character that will appear with him in the banner. With rerun banners beginning to appear in Genshin Impact 2.2, there is also some speculation that Albedo will appear as a rerun character in Genshin Impact 2.3. So it looks like the Genshin Impact 2.3 will be a complete Geo update.

Genshin Impact 2.3 Events

There hasn’t been much talk regarding events for the Version 2.3 update yet, but considering that Albedo is receiving a re-run, it’s been suggested that he’ll be the focus of future events. With the release of Arataki Itto, we can get some new Story missions featuring the new character.

Genshin Impact 2.3 New Area

Since the Traveler’s adventure in Inazuma is complete, the next region that we might get to visit is the Sumeru region. The Sumeru region of Genshin Impact is known for its huge deserts and lush trees. Despite the fact that information on the game’s next map update has been limited, a number of leaks have surfaced online. Aside from the character leaks for Version 2.3, the reveal of Sumeru City is one of the most thrilling. There have been some leaked images of the buildings in the Sumeru region. 

As revealed from the Genshin Impact 2.3 leaks, we have some exciting content coming to the game. But players should note that these are mere leaks and the details can be changed at any moment.
