Version 2.6 of Genshin Impact arrives this week, but as we are now used to, we are already entitled to a preview of the next update which will arrive in six weeks, thanks to the first visuals for the new characters who will appear with the update. And for version 2.7, it’s obviously Yelan and shinobu who will be the stars of this update, two characters that we still know little, if at all.
The characters of version 2.7

The presence of Yelan isn’t really a surprise since she had been the subject of numerous leaks, but we can at least discover her official artwork here, with confirmation that she will be a 5-star Hydro character, coming from Liye.
Kuki Shinobu will be an Electro character (in all likelihood 4 stars), who will be entitled to a ninja design that makes her stand out from the lot of the usual characters in the game. She is part of the clan of Aratki Itto and therefore comes from Inazuma.
These two characters will therefore be available during version 2.7 of the game, which will arrive in the coming weeks.
Genshin Impact is available on PC, PS4, PS5, iOS and Android. Do not hesitate to consult our many guides on the game to find out more.
