Genshin Impact 5.2 drip marketing expected date and characters

• Xilonen was revealed two days before version 5.0 and will be released in version 5.1.
• Mualani, Kinich, and Kachina were announced two days before the version 4.8 update and were released in version 5.0.
• Emilie was revealed two days before version 4.7 went live and was released in version 4.8.
• Clorinde, Sethos, and Sigewinne were announced two days before version 4.6 update and were released in version 4.7.

Info about the 5.2-5.3 characters via Iris Leaks byu/ImNotNex inGenshin_Impact_Leaks

According to the leaks via Iris Leaks, Chasca is expected to be a 5-star unit, while Ororon will likely be a 4-star. The leaker initially claimed that Ororon would be a 5-star, but later clarified that he is a 4-star and that they had made a mistake.

Chasca has an Anemo vision and she was seen using a Bow when she destroys the Spiritspeaker Stone during the Natlan Archon Quest. It is safe to say that it will also be her weapon of choice as a playable character. Meanwhile, Iris Leaks claims that Ororon will likely be an Electro character.

Iris Leaks is a new leaker, so they don't have a track record of accurate leaks. That said, their leaks have been vouched for by other reliable sources, so the claims about Chasca and Ororon are likely credible.
