A reliable source has shared a detailed overview of Genshin Impact characters coming out in Nod-Krai, revealing their gender, element, and faction. With Natlan coming to an end with Version 5.8, Genshin Impact fans have turned their full attention to Nod-Krai. From a lore standpoint, the upcoming region will attempt to tie together any lingering plot threads and slowly set the stage for the Traveler's confrontation with the Tsaritsa. From a gameplay standpoint, Nod-Krai will introduce Lunar Reactions, a way to hopefully improve upon underwhelming Elemental Reactions such as Superconduct and Crystallize.
Ineffa in Genshin Impact is intended to be the first piece of this puzzle – a mechanical construct built by the founder of the Clink-Crank Krumkake Craftshop. As a 5-Star Electro character, she will introduce Lunar-Charged, removing the weaknesses of the original Electro-Charged, and putting an interesting spin on it. While she will already improve on existing hypercarries like Cyno, her best teammate may come in September 2025.
Genshin Impact Leaks 5-Star Character for Version 6.0
A recent leak from the Genshin Impact community reveals key information about one of the upcoming 5-Star characters from Nod-Krai in Version 6.0.
According to Shiroha, whose Honkai: Star Rail record has been spotless, enough information is known about Nod-Krai to put together a comprehensive list of its playable characters. While it unfortunately claims that Dottore won't become playable during Nod-Krai in Genshin Impact, the upcoming region will feature other heavy hitters such as Durin, Columbina, Varka, Nicole, and even Alice herself. The Lantern Rite character will be the White Horse Adeptus from Moonlight Bamboo Forest, who also happens to be a Shade of Istaroth like Venti.

It's imperative to keep one thing in mind: the information presented by leaks is always subject to change. Even if HoYoverse may indeed have a roadmap similar to the one assembled by Shiroha, there is no guarantee that it will stay the same a year from now. As such, it may be best for Genshin Impact players to set their expectations accordingly. After all, at one point, Charlotte was an Anemo character from Mondstadt, Kirara was a Geo Bow unit, and Dahlia in Genshin Impact was fully designed by 2023.
The chart reveals that Version 6.0 will introduce a 5-Star Electro Male and a 5-Star Geo Female, which should give fans enough information to formulate a pulling strategy. Whereas the male character will be a hypercarry for Lunar-Charged, the female character will seemingly do the same for Lunar-Crystallize. With Primogems in Genshin Impact being scarce in the last two updates, players will need to make some important decisions heading into Version 5.8. Nod-Krai is set to open its doors to the Traveler on September 10, 2025.

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!
