KEY POINTS

  • The Dance of Lanterns character banner is now live in "Genshin Impact"
  • It features the Electro five-star character Keqing
  • New leaks show unreleased gameplay and attack of Hu Tao and Rosaria

"Genshin Impact" features interesting playable five-star and four-star characters, but the most anticipated so far are Hu Tao and Rosaria. Gaming studio miHoYo has not revealed anything related to these characters. Interestingly, a couple of videos showing Hu Tao's gameplay and Rosaria's attack surfaced online recently.

Hu Tao Gameplay Leaked

On Twitter, industry insider tuanzhang587 shared a brief video showcasing Hu Tao's gameplay. The leaked video runs less than a minute and long enough to hype fans of her arrival. Hu Tao was in the beta early on, which means that her combat animation has long been available.

Apparently, those who have access to the game's beta did not dare to leak her gameplay footage because miHoYo started banning and filing cases against beta players violating NDA. In the video, "Genshin Impact" players can see her Elemental Skill with Pyro Infusion special effects, which looks as good as Xiao's Elemental Burst.

According to insider zluet, Hu Tao's dash might be special like Mona, but at the moment, her dash still enters a ghostly state even without E. While nothing is official yet about Hu Tao, fans believe that she might be the last featured character banner the miHoYo will release in the last phase of update 1.3.

Rosaria Attack

Industry insider NEP NEP earlier today shared on Twitter Rosaria's attack. The very brief Rosaria clip showcases her doing kicks, which is a moveset that could change everything in "Genshin Impact." If miHoYo does not change her attack, she could be the first character with this unique "kick" move.

Meanwhile, the insider also leaked several images showing Rosaria's Elemental Skill. Apparently, the size of her Elemental Skill is almost the same as Albedo's Elemental Skill. When launched, Rosaria deals massive Cryo damage all over the area and leaves traces.

Rosaria is rumored to be the featured character "Genshin Impact" would launch under update 1.4. The leaked footages showing Hu Tao and Rosaria are not official. Although they are from the game's beta, there is a chance miHoYo would make several changes to their attacks and skills when they officially launch in the game. Just other leaks, fans should temper their expectations take these leaks with a pinch of salt.
