All Genshin Impact Characters Release Dates

Genshin Impact is an active game that is also under development. Every two-three months players can see new zones. Every summer the new region unlocks and every month you can see new banners in Genhsin Impact. In this post we decided to share with you all Genshin Impact characters release dates and add information about Genshin future banners that will feature new characters.

Genshin Impact Free-to-play Characters List

When you start your journey across Teyvat you will play as the Traveler. It is the main character in all cutscenes and the plot. The main advantage of the Traveler is that he/she can play with any element (if you have reached at least one relevant Archon statue to activate the element).

As you proceed and complete quests you will unlock other characters for free. The team in Genshin Impact should contain 4 active characters so you will need them to proceed through the game. Below you can see a list of free Genhsin Impact characters.

Character	Stars	Element	How to get
Noelle		Geo	Guaranteed in the first 10 Wish in the Beginners’ Wish.
Amber		Pyro	Archon Quests (Prologue)
Kaeya		Cryo	Archon Quests (Prologue)
Lisa		Electro	Archon Quests (Prologue)
Barbara		Hydro	Permanent Event: Baptism of Song Barabara.
Xiangling		Pyro	Spiral Abyss Event – People’s Choice: Xiangling.
Collei		Dendro	Curtain of Leaves – Spiral Abyss Challenge
Lynette		Anemo	The Curtain Never Falls on Magic

All these characters were released on 28^th September 2020, except for Collei and Lynette.

You will see the quests so you will not miss the opportunity to get your free Genshin Impact characters. They are also added to the pull at all wishes. Some wishes feature them so they get a higher drop rate. Every month you will see some of these characters in the shop there you can get them once again to upgrade to the next constellation level.

Wanderlust Invocation 5-Star Characters List

The characters below are all 5-star characters that can be obtained any time from wishes in Wanderlust Invocation (permanent banner). Also, they are present in a pull for promo banner.

Character	Stars	Element	How to get
Jean		Anemo	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Qiqi		Cryo	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Keqing		Electro	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Mona		Hydro	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Diluc		Pyro	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Tighnari		Dendro	Wanderlust Invocation Wish
Dehya		Pyro	Wanderlust Invocation Wish

All these characters were released on 28^th September 2020 except for Dehya.

They also have a guaranteed roll. Every 90th roll you get a 5-start item. It can be a piece of weapon or a character from above. If it is a Wanderlust Invocation Wish you will be one of the mentioned 5-star characters. But also you can get them in the promotional banner even on the guaranteed roll.

Premium Genshin Impact Characters Release Dates in Order

Below you will see the list of all released Genshin Impact characters in order from the oldest to the newest. Their release date will be mentioned instead of the “How to get” column because all of them can be obtained only from wishes. 4-star characters are available all the time in any wish (newly released ones will be available only in the promo banner and when it ends will be added to the permanent banner pull). Sometimes 4-star characters are featured in the shop that refreshes every month. You can get a character there if you need it.

Butt 5-star characters in Genshin Impact are harder to get. There are five characters that are added to the pull of the Wanderlust Invocation permanent banner. Also, they have a chance to be obtained during the active promotional banner. But other 5-star characters can be obtained only when their banner is active. Therefore we decide to share with you all Genshin Impact characters release dates so you can see when they were added to the game to guess when they’ll get a rerun.
