## Genshin Impact 5.0 : Characters You Absolutely Cannot Miss

**🌊 Columbina (6.3 — Hydro Catalyst)** The most lore-significant Harbinger to ever become playable. If you’ve followed the Archon Quests, you know exactly why she matters. Her banner arrives alongside Acts VII–VIII of the main storyline, making this a story-and-pull double event.

**⚔️ Varka & Skirk (6.4 — launching Feb 25)** Varka’s been teased since Version 1.0 and is finally here. Skirk follows in Phase 2 — Childe’s enigmatic master with a skill set reportedly built around Hydro reactions and burst windows. High ceiling, massive hype.

**🌿 Linnea & Gretel (6.5)** Linnea is a life sciences expert from Nod-Krai — leaks suggest she synergizes with Lunar Crystalized reactions. Gretel, Amber’s trainee, is rumored as a 4★ Anemo Bow unit — perfect budget glue for exploration teams.

**🔥 Nicole Reeyn “N” (6.6 — Pyro Sword)** Hexenzirkel’s mystery voice becomes playable with what’s reportedly a 5★ Pyro Sword. Lore-heavy, meta-relevant, and paired with a Citlali rerun — a strong double-banner patch.

**🤖 Sandrone (6.7 — Electro/Cryo)** “The Marionette” makes her sacrifice in the main quest before becoming playable. Designed around Superconduct reactions. Columbina rerun runs alongside her — save your primos accordingly.

**🌙 Alice (6.8 / 7.0)** Klee’s mother. Hexenzirkel founding member. Reportedly a **5★ Pyro Catalyst** with a kit that reportedly bends standard rotation rules. If this lands, expect the community to go absolutely wild.

 A: Version 7.0 is expected in late 2026 and will mark the conclusion of the Snezhnaya/Nod-Krai arc. According to leaks, the complete **Mare Jivari** map will be released starting 7.0, after which **Genshin Impact 2** is reportedly set to launch as a new chapter of the game’s journey.
