Genshin Impact is getting a lesser lord and a sleepy university student in update 3.2

gamesradar.com:

Mihoyo has revealed a duo of new Genshin Impact characters that we’ll likely see in update 3.2. 

First up (opens in new tab), we have Nahda, the diminutive Lesser Lord Kusnali, who Mihoyo teases as having “dwelt deep in the Sanctuary of Surasthana” and never really being in the limelight. As such, she’s not been mentioned all that much. She uses the dendro element if your party is short of someone who uses that. 

The other character revealed (opens in new tab) is Layla, who is “half-awake, half-asleep, all incredulous” – arguably making her one of Genshin Impact’s most relatable characters yet. Regarding her actual backstory, she’s a Rtawahist student who specialises in theoretical astrology and draws star charts tirelessly to write her thesis. She uses the cryo element when called into battle, but would clearly much rather be napping. 

While Mihoyo hasn’t confirmed which update these two will be dropping in, the developer typically reveals new characters a patch ahead of time. We’re getting Genshin Impact’s 3.1 update this week, so we’ll likely see the pair in the next patch as that’s typically the pattern we’ve got for a good while now. Mihoyo typically aims to update Genshin Impact every six weeks, so you’ll likely see them in November, with a proper showcase coming in the 3.2 livestream.
