Genshin Impact Shares Art of Upcoming Anemo Character, Ifa

HoYoVerse has shared the drip marketing for Ifa, who will be a playable character in Genshin Impact in a future update. There’s no official information thus far on his rarity or his weapon, but he will be an Anemo character.

Ifa will mark the first playable Anemo character who uses the Tall Male model, as all previous male characters with this element used the smaller one. As for his in-game lore, Ifa is a Saurian veterinarian from the Flower-Feather Clan, and he’s a friend of Ororon’s. He also has Cacucu, a Qucusaurus assistant, with him, and you can see Cacucu in his splash art as well.

Johnny Loquasto voices him in English. He previously appeared as Glo in Reverse: 1999, but he’s also a sports broadcaster for events like the WWE’s NXT. In Chinese, Lu Shujun voices him. Lu’s past roles include Hung in Arknights, as well as characters like Beer and Opera Cake in Food Fantasy. In Japanese, Junta Terashima voices him, replacing Showtaro Morikubo. Some of Terashima’s past roles include Sugiura in Judgment and Yukimura in Inazuma Eleven Go.

Genshin Impact is readily available on the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Ifa will likely debut in the Genshin Impact Version 5.6 banner, which will go live on May 7, 2025.
