Genshin Impact’s version 5.5 is around the corner. Here’s everything we know so far about the character banners for Genshin Impact 5.5.
With Genshin Impact 5.4’s main event wrapping up, leaks for version 5.5 have surfaced, revealing exciting banner details. If you’re planning your Primogem savings and wondering which characters will be featured in the upcoming banners, you’ve come to the right place.
Genshin Impact 5.5 Phase 1 Banners – Varesa & Xianyun
The first phase of version 5.5 will feature Varesa, the highly anticipated 5-star Electro catalyst user from Natlan, alongside Xianyun, the Anemo support who excels in plunge attack synergy. Since Varesa is confirmed to be a plunge DPS, Xianyun will be her best support, making this banner an excellent pull for players who enjoy aerial combat mechanics.
4-Star Characters in Phase 1
- Iansan (Electro, Polearm) – A newly introduced 4-star character with a dynamic playstyle.
- Faruzan (Anemo, Bow) – A strong Anemo support who enhances Anemo DPS units.
- Gaming (Pyro, Claymore) – A powerful Pyro DPS with an aggressive playstyle.
Genshin Impact 5.5 Phase 2 Banners – Xilolen & Venti
The second phase of 5.5 will bring back two popular characters: Xilolen and Venti. Xilolen is a 5-star Geo sword user who debuted in 5.2, while Venti, the beloved Anemo Archon, makes yet another rerun. This banner will appeal to players looking for crowd control capabilities and the massive elemental resistance shred that Xilolen offers.
4-Star Characters in Phase 2
- Beidou (Electro, Claymore) – A tanky Electro DPS with counter mechanics.
- Xingqiu (Hydro, Sword) – One of the best Hydro supports in the game, offering damage reduction and off-field Hydro application.
- Yanfei (Pyro, Catalyst) – A consistent Pyro DPS with ranged attacks.
Final Thoughts
These banner leaks provide exciting opportunities for players to expand their rosters with powerful characters. Whether you’re looking to optimize a plunge DPS team with Varesa and Xianyun or take advantage of Venti’s crowd control, version 5.5 is shaping up to be a strong update for character pulls.
