With each new edition of Genshin Impact, a new group of restricted characters is added to the game’s gacha-based system. The two characters set to appear in version 2.7 were disclosed a few weeks ago on the game’s official social media channels.
After a three-week wait, the game eventually launched the long-awaited five-star Hydro bow user Yelan. With the termination of her banner, Discerner of Enigmas, it’s time for a new Genshin Impact limited banner to take place.
The character demo for one of the future characters Kuki Shinobu, a famed Arataki gang led by popular Geo claymore figure Arataki Itto, has finally been revealed on Genshin Impact’s official YouTube channel.
Despite joining Itto’s gang later, she has become one of its most essential members, changing how the gang functions. As the gang’s second-in-command, Kuki Shinobu often finds herself rescuing her troubled leader from difficult circumstances, such as imprisonment or battling many foes.
As stated in the demo, Kuki Shinobu’s essential tasks are to bring in business, keep a stable team, and bail the team out of the Police Station. Her unique ninja-themed look has made her one of the most anticipated four-star characters in the game.
Even though she boasts some of the greatest battle animations in the game, many are sad that she will presumably be an off-field support type Genshin Impact character.
Kuki Shinobu is a four-star Electro character, which indicates that leveling up her constellations will be relatively simple. Sanctifying Ring is an elemental power that enables her to generate an Electro ring around herself that grows every second and does AoE damage.
Kuki’s burst is called Goei Narukami Kariyama Rite, and it causes her to thrust her sword into the ground, creating a damage barrier for a few seconds. Kuki Shinobu’s talents seem to scale with HP, similar to the newly released character Yelan, which is rare for four-star characters.
Kuki Shinobu appears on the same banner as her gang boss Arataki Itto, who will be the update’s second banner cycle’s only restricted five-star character.
This will be Itto’s first banner re-run since he was introduced to the game in Genshin Impact version 2.3. Auto and Kuki will likely have tremendous battlefield synergy based on their in-game friendship.
