Genshin Impact 2.4 Banner Leaks New Shenhe Domain Even though the Genshin Impact version 2.3 has yet to released, various leaks have already disclosed a lot of information regarding Version 2.4, which is expected to released on January 6, 2022. Two new characters will added to the playable roster, according to miHoYo’s official social media pages.
Each Genshin Impact update has a beta period, which typically begins when the previous patch released to live servers. When Genshin Impact update 2.3 went online, the 2.4 beta released. MiHoYO has established an odd pattern of disclosing new characters prior to the beta’s release, most likely because the characters would leaked regardless.
A screenshot of the popular character Klee inside a brand new site suspected to belong to Shenhe recently posted on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit. Lumie, one of the most reliable Genshin Impact leakers, hinted a few weeks ago that beta leaks suggest Shenhe’s dungeon will included in update 2.4. There is still no official word on Shenhe’s rarity, but this dungeon strongly suggests that she will be a limited five-star banner character.

The official art has validated previous reports about her element, and she will be a new Cryo character. Despite the fact that most sources said she would use a catalyst. The announcement confirmed that she will be holding a polearm. In terms of playstyle, she’ll most likely be one of the game’s most powerful sub-DPS characters.
A recent leak on the same subreddit disclosed a great deal about her gear:
- Passive – Upon activating Shenhe’s Elemental Skill. Her party members gain a significant damage or skill buff, depending on the way it activated (hold or tap)
- Allows Shenhe to dash forward dealing Cryo damage along the way, similar to Xiao’s skill – Elemental Skill (tap)
- Deals AoE Cryo damage for a couple of seconds – Elemental Skill (hold)
- Releases the power of Sealed Spirit, allowing it to roam and deal AoE Cryo damage – Elemental Burst. The spirit will leave behind a field effect which will decrease Cryo and Physical Resistances of enemies in the field
If Shenhe and Yun Jin will displayed on the same banner, neither official information nor trustworthy leaks exist. However, prior leaks have suggested that Ganyu and Xiao may receive a banner re-run. Implying that update 2.4 will follow the same pattern as its predecessor. With a double banner re-run on one cycle and two new characters on the other.
