Genshin Impact leaks reveal Yelan as 2nd Hydro Bow character, expected release roadmap revealed
Genshin Impact leaks have confirmed that Yelan will soon become playable. The mysterious character has never been mentioned in the storyline, and there's no information on her personality, playstyle, or combat abilities.
