New Genshin Impact 2.5 leaks seem to confirm the older leaks regarding Yae Miko appearing on the first wave of banners.
Some older leaks suggested that Yae Miko would appear in the first banner of Genshin Impact 2.5. Those same leaks also suggested that Kazuha and Raiden Shogun reruns would occur in the second half of that update. Now, a new leak has surfaced stating that she will appear in the first banner of Genshin Impact 2.5.
The leak does go on to say that the other banner characters are unconfirmed for now, so players don't have more intel on the potential Kazuha and Raiden Shogun reruns. If these leaks are accurate, that will point to February 16, 2022, as Yae Miko's release date.
This leak simply states that the first banner with have Yae Miko has a 5-star character. It's worth noting that there is no [Questionable] tag associated with this leak, so it's more than likely true.
Genshin Impact has been operating on a 21-day cycle for their banners as of late, with their version updates happening every 42 days. January 5, 2022, was the release date for Genshin Impact 2.4. Add 42 days to that to get February 16, 2022.
If Yae Miko is on the first banner of Genshin Impact 2.5, then her release date is the same as the version update. Thus, both Genshin Impact 2.5 and Yae Miko's release date should be February 16, 2022.
The same leaker also mentions that it's possible for there to be a second 5-star character in the first wave of the 2.5 update. However, there is unlikely to be any confirmation of that fact until the next livestream approaches.
Recent Genshin Impact updates include two 5-star character banners per cycle. Until then, fans can only blindly speculate on whether or not there is a second 5-star character.
