How to obtain Keqing's skin in Genshin Impact

Keqing's skin in Genshin Impact will be exclusively available in the Character Outfit shop, and it won't be a free reward like the Ningguang skin.

Hence, gamers will have to visit the Character Outfit shop (from the in-game shop menu) to get their hands on the Opulent Splendor outfit. It is recommended to purchase the skin when it is available for 1350 Genesis Crystals.

The Opulent Splendor outfit has received an overwhelmingly positive response from fans, especially Keqing users. It is an excellent upgrade from the Piercing Thunderbolt outfit, the default skin for the character.

Alternative outfits like Opulent Splendor also add unique voiceovers when the character is added to the party.

As of now, alternative skins have been confirmed in Genshin Impact for four characters: Jean, Barbara, Ningguang, and Keqing.

From the looks of it, alternative skins for four-star characters will be initially given as free rewards and then be added to the shop. On the flip side, skins for five-star characters will exclusively arrive in the shop with a limited-time discount.
