Genshin Impact has revealed another video that gives more information about the brand-new five-star Pyro character Dehya. She arrived with version 3.5 alongside another five-star unit named Cyno who has received his first re-run after being released back in 3.1.

She is one of the rare characters that can increase the movement speed of her teammates with the help of one of her Passive Talents named The Sunlit Way.

Her Elemental Skill creates a Fiery Sanctum field effect that deals coordinated damage whenever an enemy is
