Summary
- Recent Genshin Impact leaks suggest that Columbina may make her first in-game appearance during the Version 5.1 update.
- Columbina has been one of the most highly-anticipated members of the Fatui Harbingers since her appearance in Genshin Impact's "Winter Night's Lazzo" trailer.
- Past leaks have also suggested that Columbina may become a playable character at some point during the Natlan cycle.
A new Genshin Impact leak is teasing the in-game debut of one of the most highly-anticipated members of the Fatui Harbingers, Columbina. Throughout the main story of each of Genshin Impact's five current regions, the Fatui have been some of the RPG's most omnipresent villains and often serve as each region's main antagonists. Players have already battled with several Fatui Harbingers as in-game bosses, including Scaramouche, Arlecchino, and La Signora throughout the Archon Quests. Now, fans will reportedly get the chance to meet another Harbinger in the near future.
While the Fatui Harbingers are typically Genshin Impact's major antagonists, players have already been able to add several Harbingers to their team. Tartaglia served as the first playable member of the organization, released as a playable character shortly after Genshin Impact's launch with Version 1.1. HoYoverse would later add Wanderer and Arlecchino to the game as playable characters in Version 3.3 and Version 4.6, respectively. Now, another long-awaited Fatui Harbinger is reportedly set to make her first in-game appearance in the Natlan region.

Version 5.0 is coming with a major change to the Weapon Banner and its gacha, as the Epitomized Path will now function differently going forward.
Genshin Impact Leak Teases Columbina's First In-Game Appearance
A new leak shared by Genshin Impact leaker White is hinting at the next Fatui Harbinger set to make an in-game appearance. According to the leak, players will finally have the chance to meet Fatui Harbinger Columbina in-game during the main story of Version 5.1. The post does not confirm what role Columbina will play in the update's story, though she has been one of the most-anticipated Fatui Harbingers since her appearance in the "Winter Night's Lazzo" trailer. Genshin Impact's Version 5.1 update is currently expected to arrive on October 11.
Though the post did not share any details about Columbina's in-game appearance, leaks have already begun to hint at the highly-anticipated Harbinger. Previous leaks have suggested that Columbina will make her playable debut as a Cryo character, expected to fill a DPS role in Genshin Impact team compositions. Il Capitano has already been confirmed to be playing a major role in Natlan's story, with Genshin Impact's past locales often featuring multiple Fatui Harbingers involved in the story. HoYoverse has yet to officially confirm Columbina's in-game debut in Natlan.
The appearance of Columbina and Il Capitano within Natlan would leave only four of the Fatui's top agents without an in-game appearance. Fans have yet to meet Pierro, the top-ranked member of the Fatui, with expectations that he will likely make his in-game debut with the Snezhnaya region next year. Pulcinella, Sandrone, and Pantalone also have yet to make an in-game appearance, with Sandrone previously rumored to make an appearance during Fontaine's cycle. If the rumors are true, fans will get to meet two of the Fatui's most exciting additions in the near future.
