Mualani, Kinich, and Kachina will be featured in Genshin Impact 5.0 update

HoYoverse has finally released its 5.0 drip marketing posts, showcasing new characters for the Natlan update. Here is a quick overview:

• Mualani: Hydro
• Kinich: Dendro
• Kachina: Geo

Mualani is the first character who was introduced in the drip marketing. She will wield a Hydro vision and is expected to be a 5-star character. As a member of the People of the Spring's new generation of young guides, she has quickly made a name for herself throughout Natlan.

When Mualani leads the way, expect the route to be filled with spectacular sights of saurians, volcanos, and flowers. However, if you want to reach somewhere urgently, she can find you the shortest route which is both safe and sound. Recent leaks suggest her to be an HP-scaled character who uses Catalyst weapons.

The second character released in the drip marketing is Kinich, a Dendro 5-star character from the upcoming Pyro Nation. He is a Huitztlan Saurian Hunter who has been described by many names including cold-blooded killer, pragmatic, and utilitarian.

His profession and method of working have been looked at with distrust by many tribesmen of Natlan. Many find it controversial for a land full of heroes and where humans live in harmony with saurians.

Nicknamed Nanatzcayan Young Braveheart, Kachina is the last character shown in the recent drip marketing. The official statements confirm she has a Geo vision and an exceptional talent for searching and digging out treasure. It is common for her and other younglings to be injured when traveling or playing around. However, Kachina has always been the first to wipe away her tears and stand back up.

According to recent rumors. she is expected to be a 4-star character who will use polearm weapons.
