Summary
- A new leak is detailing how players will be able to obtain the Pyro version of the Traveler during the story of the Natlan region.
- The leak suggests that the Pyro Traveler will be integrated into the Archon Quest for the region, with players receiving Natlan's Gnosis from Mavuika.
- Natlan will feature several other opportunities for free characters, including Bennett from an event and a free selector for a standard banner five-star character.
A recent leak from Genshin Impact is teasing how players will be able to acquire the Pyro version of the Traveler, hinting at major story implications for the new variant. The upcoming addition of Natlan to the HoYoverse RPG has already been shown to feature a wide range of content for players following its launch later this month. Natlan will debut with three new characters added to the RPG's roster, alongside new bosses to challenge and the next expansion of the game's Archon Quest. Now, one leak is teasing a highly-anticipated addition for the region.
Throughout Genshin Impact's nearly four-year-long life, HoYoverse has given players multiple different versions of the game's protagonist, the Traveler. Each region introduces a new elemental variant for the character, often featuring sweeping changes to the Traveler's moveset and abilities. Some variants of the Traveler have even seen inclusions in some of Genshin Impact's most powerful team compositions, like the Dendro Traveler's utility in Bloom teams. However, Natlan's regional variant looks to be integrated into the region's main story.
Rumor: Genshin Impact Leak Hints at Multiple Natlan Characters' Rarities
A recent leak from Genshin Impact is hinting at the in-game rarities for several characters expected to debut during the game's Natlan cycle.
Genshin Impact Leak Hints at Story Event for Pyro Traveler
A new leak shared by Genshin Impact leaker White is teasing how players will be able to acquire the Pyro Traveler within Natlan's main story. According to the leak, the Pyro Traveler will be directly integrated into the main story of the region, with Pyro Archon Mavuika said to give the Pyro Gnosis to the Traveler at the conclusion of the story. The regional Archon Quests have often revolved around each Archon's Gnosis, with the Fatui looking to gather all the different elemental Gnoses. The leak also hints at the Pyro Traveler's role, claiming them to be a "mini Bennett" playing a support role.
The addition of the Pyro Traveler through Natlan's main story would follow in the footsteps of another of HoYoverse's flagship games. Honkai: Star Rail similarly locks different variants of the Trailblazer behind story progression, with players currently able to acquire two new versions of the main character. Genshin Impact has previously made its elemental Travelers easy to acquire, with players only needing to interact with a Statue of the Seven found in a new region. The leak did not confirm which update will feature the story event granting players the Pyro Traveler.
Alongside the eventual addition of the Pyro Traveler, HoYoverse has revealed plenty of opportunities for Genshin Impact players to pick up some free characters soon. An event during Version 5.0 will grant players a free copy of Pyro four-star character Bennett, one of the game's most popular and powerful supports. The fourth anniversary rewards will also feature a five-star character selector, allowing Genshin Impact players to acquire a free copy of one of Genshin Impact's standard five-star characters. Fans of Genshin Impact won't have to wait much longer to dive into all of Natlan's new content.
