More leaks about Lion Boy character design

HutaoLover77 also shared other visual details about Lion Boy in his recent posts. Here is a quick overview:

• Might wear socks similar to Kirara
• Might have animal ears and a small tail

As shown in the Twitter post above, despite sharing some visual details about the rumored Liyue character, the source is unsure about the ears and tails. Since there are no half-beast half-humans in Liyue Harbor, there is a high chance that the ears and tails could be accessories (similar to Keqing or Dehya). Others speculate that Genshin Impact officials might introduce a new type of race through Lion Boy's debut.

Speaking of speculations related to our new Liyue character, nothing is known about his vision, abilities, or choice of weapon. Furthermore, Lion Boy is rumored to be a 4-star character, as claimed by Uncle A. However, keep in mind that currently, there is no evidence to confirm this, and it has been flagged as STC (subject to change).
