Summary
A newGenshin Impactleak has revealed some interesting details about two upcoming characters, Skirk and Dahlia, who are expected to join the playable roster in the coming months. Since the arrival of the Pyro region, Natlan, in update 5.0,Genshin Impacthas continued to expand its pool of playable characters with each update.
The most recent roster additions were Varesa and Iansan, who arrived in the first phase of the ongoingGenshin ImpactVersion 5.5. Developer HoYoverse has already confirmed that the next update will introduce the long-awaited chef character Escoffier, Fontaine’s new Cryo user. Although Escoffier’s release is a few weeks away, recent leaks hinted at additional characters expected to arrive afterward.
A credibleGenshin Impactleaker, Team Mew, has shared three important insights about the upcoming characters Skirk and Dahlia. The first pertains to Dahlia, who is said to be a new four-star Hydro character. Previous rumors have suggested thatDahlia will be a maleGenshin Impactcharacter from Mondstadt, and the leak indicates he will be an “Attack Speed buffer,” implying a niche support role. The second detail reveals that Skirk’s signature weapon will offer 608 ATK and 33.1% CRIT Rate, with a passive that provides additional ATK and CRIT DMG. This suggests that Skirk will likely have strong DPS potential. Reportedly, she will be able to enter special buffed states, and these effects will persist even after she leaves the field.
Genshin Impact: Important Skirk and Dahlia Details Leaked
Skirk has been one of the most highly anticipated characters inGenshin Impactsince her first appearance in Archon Chapter IV. The official storyline has confirmed that she has strong ties to the Abyss and to fan-favorite character Tartaglia, better known as Childe. Skirk was reportedly responsible for teaching Childe how to fully harness his powers, which eventually led him to become aGenshin ImpactHarbinger.
Although many fans had hoped Dahlia would be aDendro character inGenshin Impact, most would still welcome a new four-star Hydro support. Players are especially curious to see how the Attack Speed buffs will function, as this stat is not commonly emphasized by support characters in the game.
As for their release date, there is still no official information. However, if HoYoverse introduces Skirk and Dahlia in update 5.7, players can expect them to join theGenshin Impactrosteraround mid-June.
