Genshin Impact 5.7 drip marketing expected date
Until last year,Genshin Impactused to reveal the new playable characters two days before the new update that precedes their release version. After version 5.3, the developers changed the schedule for unknown reasons. Thus, based on the new cycle, we can expect the drip marketing for version 5.7 onMay 12 and/or May 13 at 5am CT.
I have mentioned May 13 because HoYoverse is expected to reveal two characters. They might announce the second character a day after announcing the first character, since that’s what they did with Ifa and Escoffier. That said, it is also possible that both new entities are announced on the same day.
Drip marketing expected characters
Several leaks from multiple reliable sources suggest thatGenshin Impact5.7will likely release Dahlia and Skirk as playable characters. This also makes sense since they are the only two characters yet to be released among the silhouettes revealed during the version 5.3 livestream.
According to the leaks, Skirk is rumored to be a 5-star Cryo unit that uses a Sword. She is hinted to be a DPS unit that relies on her enhanced Normal Attacks and Elemental Burst. Skirk also uses a different type of energy, unlike others who use Elemental Energy.
Meanwhile, Dahlia is a Hydro character believed to be a 4-star and uses a Sword. Unfortunately, there’s no info on his abilities at the moment, but we should have his full kit details once the beta is released.
