Genshin Impact has already confirmed the arrival of a brand new major region named Sumeru in the upcoming update 3.0. Each map extension is usually followed by multiple additions to the game's playable roster.
Genshin Impact has introduced three new characters for update 3.0, one five-star character named Tighnari, and two four-star characters, Collei and Dori. Even though 3.0 has not even arrived yet, multiple leaks have already revealed another set of characters in the second Sumeru update.
