| Genshin Impact 5.0 Banners: Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina Splash Arts and Lore Revealed |
Genshin Impact 5.0 update is almost here and players are way too excited for this new version as HoYoverse has officially confirmed three new characters from the region of Natlan: Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina. These characters were first teased in the 4.8 Livestream and since then there have been many rumors about them and fans have been making a lot of assumptions too.
Moreover, today HoYoverse dropped drip marketing for all these characters confirming their inclusion in Genshin Impact 5.0 banners. Here’s everything you need to know about these new Genshin 5.0 characters, their elements, and the lore behind them.
Genshin Impact 5.0 Banner Characters: Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina Splash Arts
The new area called Natlan is full of ancient stories and diverse cultures, and the characters there are really interesting. Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina coming in version 5.0 have special powers and are all set to bring new twists to the game with their unique abilities and backgrounds.
Kinich is tough and efficient, and he has a dragon as a companion, which adds an element of danger and mystery. Mualani helps people explore the amazing things in Natlan, showing the spirit of discovery. Kachina is great at finding treasure and navigating mountains, showing how strong and adventurous she is.
Here’s a closer look at each Genshin Natlan character:
Genshin Kinich Drip Marketing
Kinich is a powerful 5-star Dendro character in Genshin Impact who uses a big sword called a Claymore. He's from Natlan and is known for being very practical and not too friendly. People in Natlan have mixed feelings about him because he gets things done no matter what. He also has a dragon friend named Ajaw who calls himself the "Almighty Dragonlord," which adds to Kinich's mysterious vibe.
According to HoYoverse:
Just like other younglings of the Children of Echoes, Kachina grew up surrounded by adorable Tepetlisaurs, shiny gems dug up from the depths, and heroic stories passed down by tribal elders. She came to know the mountain paths like the back of her hand, developing a great instinct and skill for searching out the treasures of the earth. In her leisure time, she and her friends would often visit the recording studios where musicians made their music, where they would dance freely to the pulsing rhythms. Growing up in such an environment, the occasional bump or scratch was unavoidable, and when she hurt herself, Kachina would cry out in pain just like any other child. But long before others had recovered from their pain, she would have wiped away her tears and stood back up again.
Of course, she understands why the adults might see her as a good kid — yet she struggles to comprehend why she, of all people, was given the name of "Uthabiti." For as the ancient poem goes:
"The one that dares stand firm as a mountain, their bones like battlements, and hold the sun's gaze — it is they that shall be given unto eternity."
"Fear itself should instead fear me, for my body is like a roaring blaze; destined to melt down all that is mean and lowly, then cast it once more as an epitaph."
What part of her lives up to the lofty spirit embodied by this great name? The young Kachina has yet to figure this out. But having been granted this great honor, she is determined never to give up, no matter how many of her bids at the Pilgrimage of the Return of the Sacred Flame end in vain. Even if it means being ostracized and reproached by her peers, or feeling disappointed, inferior, and at times nearly overwhelmed by landslides of negativity... In the end, she'll wipe it all away along with her tears. Because one thing is for certain — that "Uthabiti" Kachina will never be defeated by her tears.
Genshin Mualani Drip Marketing
Mualani is another 5-star character in the Genshin Impact 5.0 banner. She uses a special magic tool called a Catalyst. She's part of a group called the People of the Springs and works as a tour guide in Natlan. Mualani knows a lot about Natlan's amazing creatures and beautiful volcanoes. Her powers get stronger when her health is high, which makes her a unique choice for teams in the game.
According to HoYoverse:
In terms of how well they know Natlan, perhaps even the birds that gaze down upon this land from high up above would fall short of the guides from the People of the Springs. Long, long ago, their forerunners once measured the world with their feet, transforming the winding, perilous paths they walked into networks of orderly lines on their maps.
As a member of the People of the Springs' new generation of young guides, Mualani has already established an eminent name for herself throughout Natlan. With her to lead the way, you'd be sure to experience the spectacular sight of volcanic eruptions, breathe in the refreshing natural fragrance of Embercore Flowers, even witness spontaneous performances put on by packs of Koholasaurs. But likewise, if there was an emergency or you just needed to be somewhere urgently, she'd find a shortcut to get you there as safely, soundly, and smoothly as possible.
"Everyone knows the routes," Mualani herself would tell you. "But timing's the key. You can't just set off whenever you feel like it — that would be extremely unlucky!"
Genshin Kachina Drip Marketing
Kachina is a tough 4-star Geo character who uses a long weapon called a Polearm. She's from Natlan too, and she's part of a group called the Children of Echoes. Kachina is great at finding treasures and navigating the dangerous mountains of Natlan. Her tribe calls her "Uthabiti," which means she's known for being strong and brave, leading her friends through tough places.
According to HoYoverse:
"It's one thing to charge a fee for delivering a letter, but charging for being a flame bearer on Turnfire Night? It's outrageous! Is this really a hero of ours?"
"It's not like you just met him today. Surely you'd admit that he does his job well? That's all that matters."
In Natlan, where humans and Saurians live together in harmony, there have always been some who have looked askance at saurian hunters. In a land full of heroes, their practice of assessing commissions and setting a price makes the profession even more controversial.
A cruel, ruthless, cold-blooded killer... Pragmatic, utilitarian, without so much as a hint of chivalrous decorum... In such heartless, damning terms do people describe the young man that never argues back.
But what of it?
As long as the price is right, all commissions shall be fulfilled in a satisfactory manner; all writhing, raging aberrants returned to the Night Kingdom from whence they came.
Once the bearer of the Turnfire name has locked onto a target, there's no looking back.
Genshin Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina Release Phases
The Genshin Impact 5.0 update is anticipated to go live on August 28, 2024, following HoYoverse's typical 42-day update cycle.
While the exact banner phases for these characters haven’t been officially disclosed, speculation based on recent patterns suggests the following order:
- Phase I: Mualani
- Phase II: Kinich and Kachina
Each banner typically lasts three weeks, so if Phase I begins on August 28, the second phase should start around September 18, 2024.
Well, Genshin Impact 5.0 promises to be one of the most significant updates in the game’s history, introducing new features, and mechanics, and advancing the storyline.
The addition of Kinich, Mualani, and Kachina is just the beginning. These Natlan characters not only bring new ways to play the game but also make the story of Genshin Impact more exciting. Natlan itself has lots of different landscapes and fascinating history, making it a perfect place for these characters to have their adventures.
Moreover, players can expect more characters, new regions to explore, and a deeper dive into the lore of Teyvat with other future Genshin 5.x updates.
