Next Genshin Impact Characters Are Varesa and Iansan

Whenever one update drops for Genshin Impact, HoYoVerse teases what we can expect from the next, and that’s how we know Varesa and Iansan will be new characters in 5.5. Now that 5.4 arrived, the official social media account shared art and profiles for upcoming Natlan units. 

Both Iansan and Varesa will be Electro characters in Genshin Impact, and each one is from the Natlan Collective of Plenty tribe. The announcement didn’t note what rank each one is, so it is possible both are five-stars or there is one five-star and one four-star. 

Iansan is known as a coach for Pilgrimage Victors Academy, and she actually trained Varesa. Her Constellation is called Carnotaurus, and she has the title “Tempered in Molten Stone.” Varesa even provided the “description” for her online.

Meanwhile, Varesa is one of Iansan’s students. She has the Mascara Luctatori constellation and her title is ”Strength in Serenity.” Iansan described her for the social media post and referred to her as relaxed. However, she’s also a legendary “Masked Hero” whose demeanor changes when she focuses and puts on her mask to fight.

Here’s the official art for both characters:

As for 5.4, Yumemizuki Mizuki is now available in Genshin Impact. She’s a five-star Catalyst users from Inazuma. Her banner is live alongside a rerun banner for Sigewinne until March 4, 2025. Then on March 4, 2025, we’ll see a Furina and Wriothesley rerun.

Genshin Impact is available on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, PC, and mobile devices, and Varesa and Iansan will become playable characters in 5.5.
