Genshin Impact 5.0: Meet the Natlan Crew!
Get ready, Travelers, because Natlan is coming to Genshin Impact in Version 5.0! HoYoverse has finally revealed a bunch of awesome New Characters from this fiery nation, and we're here to break down all the details.
So far, we know that Natlan is the Nation of Pyro, but the Archon has been MIA for years. It's a place caught in the middle of tribal wars, and the Fatui Harbinger Capitano is taking a keen interest in the area. There are dragons too, and the Natlan teaser trailer showed some pretty epic Saurians, dragon-like creatures.
Meet the Natlan Characters:
Mualani: The Hydro Catalyst
Mualani, a blue-haired beauty, was one of the first Natlan characters teased. She's rumored to be a 5-star Hydro catalyst user. In the teaser, she's seen fishing and riding a shark-shaped projectile, which might be her mount.
Kachina: The Geo Polearm User
Kachina is a loli-type character who first appeared with Mualani. She's riding a drill-shaped mount and seems to be a 4-star Geo polearm user, according to leaks.
Kinich & Ajaw: The Dendro Claymore Duo
Kinich, rumored to be a 5-star Dendro claymore user, glides through the air with the help of a grapple hook. He's accompanied by Ajaw, a dragon-like creature that seems to be his companion.
Citlali: The Fiery Newcomer
Citlali is a pink-haired girl with a fiery personality. She's dressed in black with purple, pink, and blue accents and has a cool golden-metallic look. While her element and weapon type are still a mystery, we're excited to see what she brings to the table!
Xilonen: The Geo Character
Xilonen has a mature female body type, blonde hair, and animal-like ears. She resembles Dehya with those ears and gives off a bit of an older-Kachina vibe. Xilonen is confirmed to be a Geo character, and might be the one released in Version 5.1 if rumors are true.
Iansan: The Original Natlan Character
Iansan was revealed years ago, and she's been a source of excitement for Natlan fans ever since. She's known for her skull-shaped mask, long white hair, and her black, orange, and purple outfit. While her Vision wasn't shown in the teaser, she's still a mysterious character we can't wait to learn more about.
Chasca: The Cryo Vision
Chasca is a character with wine-colored hair and a matching scarf. She has elf-like ears, blue eyes, and a large tricorn hat. Her design has some similarities to the leaked designs for Captain R, which became Clorinde in Fontaine. The teaser confirms that Chasca wields a Cryo Vision, which makes us wonder how she'll fit into the Natlan narrative.
Mavuika: The Possible Pyro Archon
Mavuika, with her long red hair, dark clothes, and golden accents, has been teased as the Pyro Archon. While not confirmed, she seems to be in charge of the tournament and has a Murata Himeko archetype vibe. She's not seen with a Vision, which adds to the rumors about her being the Pyro Archon, and she probably uses Pyro in combat.
Il Capitano: The Fatui Harbinger
The Fatui Harbinger Capitano makes an appearance in the teaser, looking ready to take on the Natlan tournament. He's already been confirmed to be involved in Natlan's story, and his presence in the teaser hints at a major role in the upcoming events.
Ororon: The Enigmatic Antagonist
Ororon is a character with dark clothing, a blue and green scarf, and dark blue hair. He appears alongside Capitano, which suggests he might play an antagonistic role. His character is shrouded in mystery, but we're sure to learn more soon.
The release of Natlan is expected in late August, so we can expect the Version 5.0 livestream in mid-August. We're all eager to learn more about this exciting new region and the characters who will call it home!
