With Genshin Impact Version 5.7 coming soon, leaks everywhere paint a pretty clear picture of what’s to come. From brand-new heroes to fresh endgame content, this patch might be one of the biggest yet. So let’s jump in and see what’s been whispered across forums and datamines.

Skirk finally arrives as a playable character. She’s known in the lore as Tartaglia’s mysterious mentor from the Abyss and rumor says she’ll be a Cryo DPS swordswoman. Early reports mention aggressive Cryo-infused combos, but we’ll see how powerful she truly is once she’s out.

Dahlia’s a 4-star Hydro support from Mondstadt-yes, the deacon you’ve heard about in passing. He supposedly brings healing and shields, fitting well with Freeze teams, or any lineup really that wants extra survivability. It’s nice to finally get him, after all those nods in the story.
Leaksters claim the Version 5.7 banners split into two phases:
And the 4-star characters on rate-up? Dahlia (4★ Hydro Sword) and Yaoyao (4★ Dendro Polearm). The banners should begin after the update drops on June 18, 2025, with a Special Program livestream on June 6, 2025 at 5:30 PM IST.
Players have wanted more beyond the Spiral Abyss for ages. Word is Version 5.7 introduces Perilous Conflict, a new permanent co-op challenge mode. It’s said to be alongside Abyss and Imaginarium Theater, with time-limited combat trials that test team synergy. Could be interesting if it sticks around long-term.

Here’s what datamining has uncovered for the Abyss rotation:
Version 5.7 isn’t just about new content; it brings handy UX updates:
Finally, you can save and switch artifact sets per character. Each hero gets three slots: one “Recommended” and two custom (Plan 1 and Plan 2). No more manual swapping every time you change roles.
The Talent screen is getting tidier. Expect clearer breakdowns of ability scaling and level benefits. It should help both newcomers and theorycrafters figure out builds faster.
Leakers have spotted hints of one-piece artifact sets in testing-likely rewards from the new Perilous Conflict mode. These could add niche bonuses and deepen character customization.

Big narrative update: Dainsleif’s storyline continues. He even appears as a trial party member in test builds, plus some visual polish. We might not get him playable this patch, but it’s a tease towards that possibility.
All Genshin Impact players, mark your calendars for June 6, 2025:
It’ll be the first real look at everything in 5.7-so you won’t want to miss it. Make sure your device meets the Genshin Impact Size & System Requirements to run it smoothly once the update goes live.
Remember, none of this is official until HoYoverse confirms. But with leaks so consistent, Version 5.7 is looking very exciting: new faces, better UI, fresh endgame, and more. We’ll update as soon as the livestream drops and after the patch goes live.
