A reliable source has shared a detailed overview of Genshin Impact characters coming out in Nod-Krai, revealing their gender, element, and faction. With Natlan coming to an end with Version 5.8, Genshin Impact fans have turned their full attention to Nod-Krai. From a lore standpoint, the upcoming region will attempt to tie together any lingering plot threads and slowly set the stage for the Traveler’s confrontation with the Tsaritsa. From a gameplay standpoint, Nod-Krai will introduce Lunar Reactions, a way to hopefully improve upon underwhelming Elemental Reactions such as Superconduct and Crystallize.
Ineffa in Genshin Impact is intended to be the first piece of this puzzle – a mechanical construct built by the founder of the Clink-Crank Krumkake Craftshop. As a 5-Star Electro character, she will introduce Lunar-Charged, removing the weaknesses of the original Electro-Charged, and putting an interesting spin on it. While she will already improve on existing hypercarries like Cyno, her best teammate may come in September 2025.

Genshin Impact Leaks 5-Star Character for Version 6.0
A recent leak from the Genshin Impact community reveals key information about one of the upcoming 5-Star characters from Nod-Krai in Version 6.0.
According to Shiroha, whose Honkai: Star Rail record has been spotless, enough information is known about Nod-Krai to put together a comprehensive list of its playable characters. While it unfortunately claims that Dottore won’t become playable during Nod-Krai in Genshin Impact, the upcoming region will feature other heavy hitters such as Durin, Columbina, Varka, Nicole, and even Alice herself. The Lantern Rite character will be the White Horse Adeptus from Moonlight Bamboo Forest, who also happens to be a Shade of Istaroth like Venti.

It’s imperative to keep one thing in mind: the information presented by leaks is always subject to change. Even if HoYoverse may indeed have a roadmap similar to the one assembled by Shiroha, there is no guarantee that it will stay the same a year from now. As such, it may be best for Genshin Impact players to set their expectations accordingly. After all, at one point, Charlotte was an Anemo character from Mondstadt, Kirara was a Geo Bow unit, and Dahlia in Genshin Impact was fully designed by 2023.
The chart reveals that Version 6.0 will introduce a 5-Star Electro Male and a 5-Star Geo Female, which should give fans enough information to formulate a pulling strategy. Whereas the male character will be a hypercarry for Lunar-Charged, the female character will seemingly do the same for Lunar-Crystallize. With Primogems in Genshin Impact being scarce in the last two updates, players will need to make some important decisions heading into Version 5.8. Nod-Krai is set to open its doors to the Traveler on September 10, 2025.
