A recent leak from Genshin Impact is hinting at the appearance of an important character set to appear during the story of Version 6.2, bringing in a new Hexenzirkel member. The launch of Nod-Krai has brought several of the HoYoverse RPG's most prominent factions to the limelight with its story, starring both old and new organizations within the game. Groups like the Knights of Favonius, Fatui, and Treasure Hoarders have been teased to be appearing alongside the new Frostmoon Scions and the Voynich Guild. However, one of Genshin Impact's most mysterious organizations is also set to play a major role.
The Hexenzirkel has been one of Genshin Impact's most clandestine organizations since the game's inception, hinted to be a mysterious and powerful group of witches. Genshin Impact has hinted at multiple Hexenzirkel characters in past updates, with Alice teased as Version 1.0 five-star character Klee's mother and other members like Rhinedottir hinted through in-game lore. Other characters like Mona have also been teased as connected with members of the Hexenzirkel, though none have appeared in-person within the RPG. Now, Genshin Impact may soon be seeing its first in-game Hexenzirkel character.
Genshin Impact Leak Teases Durin's Gameplay
The newest leaks from Genshin Impact are providing some early information about how rumored character Durin will play following his release.
A leak shared by prominent HoYoverse leaker HomDGCat is hinting at the first appearance of a Hexenzirkel member in Genshin Impact. According to the post, dialogue discovered within the Version 6.2 update heavily hints at the introduction of a new character referred to as "Nico" within the game's files. The post implies that Hexenzirkel member Nicole Reeyn will make her first in-game appearance within Version 6.2, with previous leaks also suggesting she will have an in-game model during the patch. Genshin Impact's Version 6.2 is currently scheduled to release on December 3.
Genshin Impact Leak Teases Nicole's First In-Game Appearance
The in-game debut of Nicole Reeyn comes as she was not the only Hexenzirkel member teased to appear in Nod-Krai. The previously-mentioned Alice served as one of the most notable characters teased in the buildup to Nod-Krai's release, with Alice first being mentioned in-game on release with Version 1.0 and featuring voiceover in Version 1.6. Previous leaks have also suggested that several past characters may become involved with the Hexenzirkel soon, including multiple Mondstadt characters like Fischl and Razor.
Genshin Impact's Version 6.2 looks to have lots on the way for fans beyond the introduction of the first in-game Hexenzirkel member. Version 6.2 will welcome two new characters to the roster, with both Durin and Jahoda confirmed to join the playable cast during the update. HoYoverse also recently introduced "Miliastra Wonderland" to the RPG as its new user-generated content-focused game mode, with more updates expected to arrive to the game mode within Version 6.2. Genshin Impact's Version 6.2 will bring something to the table for all fans of the game, from its new game mode to major story beats.
