Summary
- A new Genshin Impact leak reveals event banner details for Version 5.4
- Mizuki, Wriothesley, Sigewinne, and Furina are the 5-Star characters expected to feature in the Version 5.4 banner for Genshin Impact.
- 4-Star characters Mika, Gorou, Sayu, and Chongyun will likely be featured in upcoming event banners.
The latest beta build for Version 5.4 of Genshin Impact has shed light on the upcoming Event Banners, revealing more about the 4-Star characters that will join the lineup alongside Mizuki, Wriothesley, Sigewinne, and Furina. As Version 5.3 concludes the Archon Quest in Natlan, Version 5.4 will shift the focus back to Inazuma. Although it won't introduce a new map expansion, the Flagship Event will center around the yokai of Inazuma, prominently featuring Yae Miko and Ei.
The highlight of Version 5.4 is undoubtedly Yumemizuki Mizuki, a new 5-Star Anemo Catalyst from Inazuma. Expected to be a Standard Banner character, her Signature Weapon is anticipated to be a major draw. Mizuki's ability kit mirrors Sucrose's but with the added benefit of healing. Despite some critiques about her passive rotation, she has seen consistent buffs throughout the beta testing phase.
Thanks to HomDCCat's datamining, Genshin Impact players now have insights into the 4-Star characters that will accompany the Event Banners in Version 5.4. The first half of the version will feature Wriothesley and Mizuki, while Sigewinne and Furina will headline the second half. The 4-Star characters slated for Version 5.4 are Mika, Gorou, Sayu, and Chongyun. Rumors suggest an Inazuma Chronicled Banner might be introduced in this patch, though confirmation or denial will likely come during the developer livestream.
Genshin Impact: Banner Characters in Version 5.4
- Mizuki – 5-Star Anemo Catalyst
- Wriothesley – 5-Star Cryo Catalyst
- Sigewinne – 5-Star Hydro Bow
- Furina – 5-Star Hydro Sword
- Mika – 4-Star Cryo Polearm
- Gorou – 4-Star Geo Bow
- Sayu – 4-Star Anemo Claymore
- Chongyun – 4-Star Cryo Claymore
Note that the 4-Star characters listed are not in any particular order. If an Inazuma Chronicled Banner is indeed introduced, Gorou and Sayu would likely appear in phases where the Chronicled Banner is not active. Considering past patterns, both first and second halves are possible for the Chronicled Banner. Among the 4-Stars, Mika stands out as particularly valuable due to his synergy with both Furina and Wriothesley.
Speculation about the remaining two spots on the Event Banners has led many to hope for Charlotte's return. Absent since her debut in Version 4.2 and missing Furina's rerun in Version 4.7, Charlotte's potential comeback is eagerly anticipated. Noelle, who synergizes well with both Furina and Gorou, is also expected to feature in the second half. This setup would provide a much-needed rerun opportunity for Sayu, Mika, and Gorou on the Event Banners.
