Gesnhin Impact Dainsleif will surely be one of the playable characters in the future update of the game.
Let's find, who is Dainsleif in Genshin Impact? |
The fact that Genshin Impact is so popular among its players is due to its wide range of characters that offer new elements and interesting gameplay. We every new update, we get one or more new characters in the game, as we got with the 2.4 update.
The 2.4 update introduced both Shenhe and Yun Jin as the new characters available in the game's gacha pool, and miHoYo has already shared a teaser of the next Genshin Impact character that will be made playable in the 2.5 update, Yae Miko.
Now with all the various characters available in the game, we still have a lot more Genshin characters that are part of the game but are not playable but have the potential to become playable at some point in the game.
Taking about the non-playable characters, numerous leaks have revealed a series of Genshin Impact characters who will sooner or later become playable in the game, and one of these characters is Dainsleif.
Let’s get to know who is Dainsleif in Genshin Impact, and what do we know about this potential playable character.
Genshin Impact Dainsleif
If not soon, then definitely in the future update we will get Dainsleif as a playable Genshin character. Dainsleif has been defined as the self-proclaimed prophet, who has the keys to many of the world's greatest secrets and specifically of the lost region of Khaenri'ah.
Recently, Dainsleif has become a topic of discussion among the players, thanks to the constantly flowing leaks that reveal info about the upcoming update. A few days ago, it was revealed that there's a possibility that Genshin Impact 2.6 will bring 2 new characters along with the return of a known character, Dainsleif.
Genshin Impact Dainsleif Release Date
miHoYo has still maintained its silence about the official Genshin Impact Dainsleif release date, however, that hasn't stopped the Dainsleif leaks from flowing in.
Dainsleif was one of the very first characters that were confirmed to be playable characters. Dainsleif was introduced as a Genshin Impact character during the Tokyo Game Show 2020 stream to celebrate the global release of the game. However, the devs never released Dainsleif in the main game as a playable.
Although we have no leaks discussing the possibility of Dainsleif becoming playable soon, it's likely that during Genshin Impact’s final act Dainsleif will make an appearance, which will see the release of Khaenri’ah.

Genshin Impact Dainsleif Abilities
The exact details on Genshin Dainsleif abilities are pretty scarce at the moment, however, during the We Will Be Reunited Archon quest in 1.4 update, we were able to get a glimpse of Dainsleif's abilities. When he was restraining an Abyss Herald without physical contact, his hand was surrounded by a dark blue, galaxy-like aura.
So far, Dainsleif doesn’t appear to have a Vision, so it would be quite interesting to see from where does Dainsleif channels his magical abilities.
Yet, nothing is certain here so we will have to wait to get more info about Dainsleif abilities and elements.
Genshin Impact Dainsleif Story Quest
Genshin Impact Dainsleif is the denizen of Khaenri’ah, and appears to be a self-proclaimed prophet.

And as indicated by the Genshin Impact wiki, the official introduction of Dainsleif states, "The confluence between the past and future.
The original calamity had been overturned, yet the island in the sky set the earth to burn. Chalk pursues gold, in this time inopportune, the eclipse is swallowed by the crimson moon. The future must atone for bygone mistakes, as the bond familiar falters and breaks— of the same blood, elders and the youth... Such is the cycle of the world, in truth. Dain, what is that strand of blonde hair to you? Someone you must kill? Or the object of your penitence?
—A self-proclaimed prophet."
Genshin Dainsleif was first introduced in We Will Be Reunited Archon Quests (the fourth act in Chapter I in Version 1.4, released on April 12, 2021). There it was revealed that "Dainsleif is the Twilight Sword, one of the royal guards from Khaenri'ah, and he had failed to protect it, being laid upon a curse of immortality and forced to watch his people turn into monsters."
Moreover, it has been hinted that Genshin's Dainsleif is immortal as during his narration in Venti's Collected Miscellany and Venti: Skyward Sonnet, he said, "A thousand years have passed since the God of Anemo left this land. But to me, it has only been half that time."
Now the last time we got to see Dainsleif was in the Bough Keeper: Dainsleif (World Quest that serves as the prologue to Chapter I Act IV: We Will Be Reunited of the Archon Quests.)
So it would be interesting to see whether Genshin's Dainsleif will actually become a playable character or not and if he does then when will miHoYo officially announce Genshin Dainsleif release date.
Now you must be wondering "what is Genshin Impact Khaenri’ah", so we'll answer it below.
Genshin Impact Khaenriah region
The Kingdom of Khaenriah is the place where Dainsleif resides. It is an unreleased region that is not part of the continent of Teyvat.
Genshin Impact's Khaenriah is popular for its role in the cataclysm 500 years ago, where monsters created by the alchemist Rhinedottir poured out to invade Teyvat, which eventually led Celestia and the gods to destroy the region.
Khaenriah was destroyed to prevent the monstrous invasion, but due to this several inhabitants of this region were turned into monsters to form the Abyss Order. As per the given description, "Khaenriah was a powerful nation, built purely by humans, an unprecedented flourishing and glorious civilization — it was the pride of humankind."
Not to have a god was something that never affected its people, and the denizen of Khaenri'ah, Dainsleif describes it as one of "the hidden corners where the gods' gaze does not fall," and says that its people "dream of dreaming," unlike the majority who are "content to live, and not to dream."
Now Khaenriah is the act of the game’s story, so it wouldn't be shocking if miHoYo releases Dainsleif as a playable during Genshin’s final chapter.

Genshin Impact Dainsleif Banner
Now coming to the return of Dainsleif, the Genshin Community has been filled with excitement as Ubatcha in his recent tweet stated that 2.6 will bring back Dainsleif.
We have no info on the characters featuring on the Dainsleif banner, yet his appearance alone is enough as during the last appearance, he brought several rewards for the players to acquire, so it is expected that this NPC will once again have a lot to offer and will probably reveal more about the world as he seems to know Traveler’s sibling.
Genshin Impact Dainsleif Weapon
Genshin's Dainsleif weapon is yet to be datamined, as no leaker has made the revelation about it, and miHoYo is yet to announce Dainsleif as a playable Genshin Impact character.
Whatever the case may be, with this Genshin Dainsleif leak, we know that when this character actually releases, it will take Genshin Impact to the next level and we will make sure to update the article with new info whenever anybody decides to drop any hint.
These were the complete details about Dainsleif Genshin Impact that have been revealed so far. However, similar to all the leaks, players should take the 2.6 Dainsleif leak with a grain of salt until miHoYo officially reveals any details.
