Genshin Impact 2.6 update release date, countdown, first banner, and more leaks
Genshin Impact 2.6's release date is March 30, 2022, with several leaks indicating that Ayato will be on the first banner.
It's worth looking at some past precedence regarding the dates between previous version updates:
Every recent update has lasted for 42 days. It would stand to reason that Genshin Impact 2.6 will come out 42 days after February 16, 2022, which points to a release date of March 30, 2022.
Similarly, these past updates' maintenance began at 6.00 am (UTC+8), with the game usually being playable around 11.00 am (UTC+8). One can deduce that Genshin Impact 2.6's maintenance will also begin at 6.00 am (UTC+8), with the game being playable around 11.00 am (UTC+8).

One of the most common but popular Genshin Impact 2.6 leaks states that Ayato will be on the first banner of the new update. Assuming that's true, he would be playable on March 30, 2022 (the same as the upcoming version update).

Naturally, that also means there isn't any verifiable news on any concurrent banners with Ayato or specific details on the banners of the second phase of the update.
