Genshin Impact Introduces Yae Miko in Gameplay Trailer and We Threw Our Wallet at the Screen

Developer HoYoverse released a new character demonstration trailer featuring Yae Miko, the latest addition to the  Genshin Impact crew! The trailer shows her Electro attacks while giving us a glimpse of her work as Chief Editor of the Yae Publishing House. She’s also seen with her catalyst, with damage spread out with her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst. According to the developers, Miko can provide constant damage off-field and high burst damage on-field.

“In the “Reborn as Guuji Yae” writing submission event held by Yae Publishing House. But even the best of them failed to match up to the few words that Yae Miko casually mentioned. Should it be said that this is her extraordinary talent as the editor-in-chief of Yae Publishing House, or is it a display of her duties as the Guuji of the Grand Narukami Shrine?”

It should be noted that this is the first trailer the developer posts under the HoYoverse name, the recently rebranded name they took upon recently.

Genshin Impact is a free-to-play open-world action RPG that brings players to the visually stunning world of Teyvat. The player takes on the role of the mysterious “Traveler,” who sets off on a journey to discover the fate of their lost sibling and unveils the mysterious secrets of Teyvat along the way.
