Genshin Impact Teases Ganyu Update in New Character Trailer

MiHoYo launched a new character trailer for their open-world RPG, Genshin Impact, which teases a new playable character, Ganyu.

The trailer isn’t exactly gameplay and instead focuses on the backstory of Ganyu the Cryo archer, who will be playable after the January 12 update. Ganyu is the secretary for the Liyue Qixing, where she works hard. She’s graceful and gentle and is easily a top waifu contender. Her attacks cause Cryo damage, where she uses a bow and arrow to shoot 6 consecutive shots for a normal attack.

Genshin Impact is a free-to-play open-world action RPG where you will play as a young protagonist known as the traveler. During gameplay, players will explore and climb various buildings and locations and battle monsters around the game’s open world. This game is definitely inspired by titles like Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Breath of the Wild just by its look, but the models and animations are very similar to Honkai Impact 3rd.

We’ll be sure to keep you updated on any more news around Genshin Impact’s release.

Genshin Impact is available now on PlayStation 4, PC, iOS, and Android globally.
