Genshin Impact 5.1 details may still be fresh, but that hasn’t stopped a wave of exciting 5.2 leaks from pouring in. Recent revelations have revealed details about Chasca and Ororon, two new characters that can be unlocked.

There’s even news of an event at a popular location in Mondstadt, as well as information about an undiscovered location. So if you’re looking to save your Primogems for the upcoming banners or just want to know what to expect, then our Genshin Impact 5.2 hub has everything you need to know.

Is there a release date for Genshin Impact 5.2?

No, the Genshin Impact 5.2 update does not have a release date yet.

Based on the usual six week update schedule it is expected to be available on November 20, 2024.

New characters

According to a reliable leaker, the Genshin Impact 5.2 update will feature two new characters. These are:

• Chasca (5-star Anemo Bow user)
• Ororon (4/5 star Electro Bow user)

While details on both 5-star character kits have been quite sparse, the leakers have managed to unearth more information surrounding Chasca.

Here’s what leaks say about Chasca’s gear in Genshin Impact:

• Chasca can fly in her night soul state. Their flight time is said to exceed that of Scaramouche.
• Chasca can convert her element to Hydro, Electric, Pyro, or Cryo. This will make her the first character to perform a form of elemental conversion.

Scaramouche/Wanderer is also set to return in 5.2, meaning Travelers who haven’t unlocked him yet will be able to do so.

As always, you should take these leaks with caution. We will definitely update this section once HoYoverse announces official details.

New location

HoYoverse

Travelers can visit Citlali’s house if the information is correct.

An anonymous leaker has revealed that a new location will be added in update 5.2: Citlali’s residence. As the name suggests, this house will be the home of Citlali – an aspiring 4-star Cryo Catalyst user who hails from the Natlan region.

Citlali belongs to the tribe of the Masters of the Night Wind, one of the six tribes that live in Natlan. The 4-star character is said to work as a fortune teller, whose famous services were even used by Mualani.

5.2 Event

If the leaks are accurate, it looks like we’ll be returning to the frozen landscapes of Dragonspine. The previous Dragonspine event, The Chalk Prince and the Dragon, required players to search for Rime Fragments and complete Proving Grounds challenges for Albedo.

While we don’t have any details about what the 5.2 event will entail, we’ll likely see more of Albedo and his friends.

As always, we’ll update each section as more details are revealed, but that’s all we know about the 5.2 update for now.
