Reruns tend to be more difficult to leak this early on, so there is a chance that the above-rumored list may not be accurate. However, those characters haven't appeared in nearly a year, making them common subjects in various banner leaks.

Travelers should know that the July 13, 2022 date is what miHoYo stated in the Version 2.7 Update Notice. They did not confirm any banners, as that information entirely comes from several leaks. Apart from that minor distinction, the Update Notice notice in question can be seen below.

miHoYo has already announced that it expects Genshin Impact 2.8 to be released on July 13, 2022. The above Tweet proves just that, stating:

Some leakers claim that Heizou will be on the first banner of the upcoming update. That would make his release date July 13, 2022, as characters scheduled for the first phase of banners always share a release date with the update. Heizou is a four-star character, so Travelers might wish to know which five-star character will accompany him on that date.
