droidgamers.com:

Travellers across Teyvat are abuzz with rumors about Natlan and Columbina, the former being the upcoming fiery region in Genshin Impact. Leaks suggest a scorching hot landscape, new gameplay features, and a deeper connection between a mysterious Fatui Harbinger and the Pyro Archon. But remember, these are mere speculations – take them with a pinch of salt!

Teyvat lore describes a land shaped by volcanic eruptions and scorching deserts. Some leaks hint at fiery new mechanics, with rumors about the possibility of mounts. Additionally, a rumor suggests a graphical upgrade for Version 5.0. While HoYoverse hasn’t confirmed anything yet, they haven’t denied the leaks on Natlan and Columbina in Genshin Impact either. The idea makes travellers eager to scour this fiery new frontier.

One particularly intriguing leak concerns Columbina, the enigmatic Fatui Harbinger. Fan theories have long speculated about her origins, some even suggesting she might be a Seelie.

However, a recent leak throws a wrench into those theories. It whispers that Columbina belongs to a race with a deep connection to the gods associated with Natlan, possibly even created by the Pyro Archon themselves! This would certainly add another intrigue to Columbina’s already fascinating character. Columbina might also play a role in Natlan’s Archon Quest, which should shed some light on her past.

Think of it like diving deeper into the rich lore of Teyvat alongside the usual exploration. However, this doesn’t mean the open-world exploration is going away entirely.

Of course, with any new content comes speculation about upcoming characters. While Columbina’s role is up in the air, another Harbinger, Capitano, is rumored to be a key antagonist in Natlan. Given the popularity of other Harbingers,
