Summary
- Chasca and Ororon are new playable characters in Genshin Impact 5.2.
- Chasca is a new Anemo character with a gun-based DPS kit.
- Ororon is a mysterious Electro character from the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe.
Genshin Impact officially revealed two new playable characters that will join the roster in the upcoming update 5.2. It's safe to say that Genshin Impact characters are the focal point of every new update since they are HoYoverse's main source of revenue due to the gacha-based system.
For a while now, Genshin Impact has been following a pattern of introducing at least one playable character per update. The recent addition of the Natlan region has revealed tons of new characters, most of whom are expected to join the playable roster in the foreseeable future.
Genshin Impact Leaks Info About 5.2 Banner Characters
A Genshin Impact leak reveals details about which character could be featured on the Limited Character Banner in Version 5.2.
Genshin Impact's official Twitter account has finally revealed the two characters that will join the playable roster in update 5.2. According to a recent post, Genshin Impact Version 5.2 will feature Chasca and Ororon. Chasca is expected to be a new five-star character, while Ororon will likely have a lower four-star rarity. Chasca has already made multiple appearances in the Natlan storyline, and she's confirmed to be a new Anemo character. Her official introduction gave her the title of Skyborne Arbiter, and she's also known as the Peacemaker of the Tlalocan. The Flower-Feather Clan, also known as the Tlalocan, is one of the six tribes in Natlan.
Genshin Impact Confirms Chasca and Ororon for Version 5.2
Ororon, who also goes by the title Shadow of the Night-Wind, is a mysterious character who belongs to the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. Since his reveal, fans have been suspicious about Ororon and his role in Natlan's main storyline. Multiple fan theories have been suggesting that he could be one of Genshin Impact's Harbingers due to his ties with Capitano. However, the chances of Ororon being a Harbinger are slim considering that multiple leaks hinted at his four-star rarity. Every Harbinger that joined the roster so far has been a five-star character.
When it comes to the characters' power on the field, there is still not a lot of official information. Recent Genshin Impact leaks have revealed that Chasca will be a DPS character in Genshin Impact. Her kit has been described as a combination of Wanderer and Clorinde. Chasca will use gunshots as part of her kit, similar to Clorinde. Her Anemo powers will also make her float in the air, similar to how Wanderer uses his Elemental Skill.
Natlan's exclusive Nightsoul point system is also expected to be part of both characters's kits. Ororon's in-game appearances have confirmed that he is a new Electro character in Genshin Impact, and leaks have suggested that he will have a much more supportive role. However, these rumors need to be taken with a grain of salt and players will have to wait for the 5.2 beta to get more credible information.

WHERE TO PLAY
Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy.
You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived.
Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds...
MASSIVE OPEN WORLD
Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover?
ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM
Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage.
Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration.
BEAUTIFUL VISUALS
Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life.
SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK
Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood.
BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM
Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains.
JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS
Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards.
As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure!
