As we are approaching the Genshin Impact 5.0, "Flowers Resplendent on the Sun-Scorched Sojourn" update, aka the Natlan update, HoYoverse—following their drip marketing strategy of revealing a consecutive update character right before an upcoming update, they took it to X (formerly Twitter) to reveal Xilonen as the next playable character.

She debuted as one of the upcoming characters in Genshin Impact with the Ignition Teaser: A Name Forged in Flames teaser. For players who don't know, Xilonen is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Geo element user.

While we don't have official details on her weapon and character kit, thanks to some reliable leaks, we do know that she is a Sword user whose character kit makes her universal support, buffing Elemental DMG of allies to a great extent while providing a shield.

The initial leaks also suggest her abilities scale with DEF, and her weapon will have a skill that gives CRIT Rate and CRT DMG to your party members. So, in short, not only she—herself provides massive support to the team, even her signature weapon does it.

Lastly, when it comes to Xilonen's VA, her Japanese voice is given by the talented Fairouz Ai with her English VA being Beth Curry. Her Chinese VA is Mi Yang and the Korean voiceovers are from Kim I-an.

Are you excited for Xilonen, or are you waiting for any other Natlan character? Let us know in the comments!
