While some gamers are still updating their version of "Genshin Impact" after miHoYo released Update 2.0 last week, leaks have surfaced online revealing some interesting details on what to expect in the next update.

Watasumi is known for its colorful and dense foliage and the insider shared the image of the upcoming location on Twitter.

Another interesting detail that the insider shared was the new boss that players would have to face in "Genshin Impact" Update 2.1. The insider also posted an image of the new boss, La Signora. Industry insider Lumie also shared a video showcasing the renders of Baal, Kokomi and Sara.

MiHoYo appears to have officially confirmed some details about the upcoming playable characters in the game on its official Twitter account. It recently shared some information about three upcoming characters – Baal or Raiden Shogun, Kokomi and Sara.

While miHoyo shared little details about these characters, it is generally nothing new from what fans have learned about their lore from earlier leaks.
