Genshin Impact Character — What We Know So Far
During the Luna VI livestream on March 27, 2026, a mysterious unnamed female character was teased. She is short with purple hair and bears an Anemo Vision — and while no official name or gameplay details have been confirmed yet, this isn’t her first appearance. She was first teased as a silhouette during the Luna IV livestream back in January 2026, and her visual reveal now perfectly matches that silhouette. Billboard
Her playability has already been confirmed via the earlier silhouette showcase — which also featured other upcoming characters like Lohen, Varka, Nicole, and Linnea. Players will be able to learn more about her while exploring Dornman Port in the upcoming update. Billboard

The Big Lore Drop — Asmoday’s Domain Is Finally Playable
The highlight of the entire livestream was the reveal of the Temple of Space — a brand new playable map accessible from the Abandoned Sanitarium at the summit of Windrest Peak in Mondstadt. This is Asmoday’s Domain, the very location where the Traveler first separated from their sibling at the start of the game.
Inside, Travelers will meet NPCs from different eras, a flying companion named Dex, and face a new boss called Melanta — a watcher who has descended into madness. Rolling Stone
Linnea, the first new playable character in Version 6.5, is a Geo Resonator from Nod-Krai who wields a Moon Wheel instead of a Vision and serves as an advisor to the Adventurer’s Guild. Vogue Philippines
