Genshin Impact had quite the presence at The Game Awards 2022, winning one award and showing off Yaoyao's debut. Many Travelers who have followed the leaking scene for a while should know who she is and how she's been in the game's beta for several years. Similarly, those who haven't followed the latest leaks might be surprised to see a new character.
Yaoyao appeared in what was ultimately a filler trailer. Everything that happened before her debut was to show off some cool characters like Wanderer and Yelan, which wouldn't have done much for those already playing the game.
However, her brief introduction was quite well-received by the online Genshin Impact community. No gameplay was shown or anything else too substantial, but seeing her model in action was enough to be considered newsworthy to some gamers.
Check out the brief teaser down below.
It's just a clip that lasts for a few seconds, with Yaoyao moving about before acting excited about something in the distance. A cute jingle plays in the background, ending with her leaving off-screen. No context was provided as to why she was here or what she was doing in this exact location.
Something similar happened last year at The Game Awards 2021. Back then, Yun Jin had a brief teaser, and she became playable nearly a month after her reveal.
Whether the same thing happens with Yaoyao or not remains to be seen.
Players excited to see this new character might wish to know some leaks detailing some news about her. Current Genshin Impact leaks point to her being a 4-star Dendro Polearm user scheduled to debut in Version 3.4.
Everything in leaks is subject to change. Thus, Travelers should be patient until more official news arrives regarding what this character is capable of doing
