The excitement is building as Genshin Impact's developers tease a new character for the eagerly awaited update 5.5! While miHoYo (HoYoverse) has often been behind the curve with leaks, this time they're taking the lead with an official reveal. The spotlight is on Varesa, a new 5-star Electro character who wields a Catalyst in battle. Her concept art and gameplay have been the talk of the town, and now, fans can finally see her in action.

Iansan, Varesa's mentor, shares her insights on her unique student:
"Varesa, my most peculiar student… No one matches her easygoing, carefree nature. No matter where she travels, she’s like a child on an adventure—always searching for delicious treats or a cozy spot to rest... But beware! If you ever fight Abyss monsters with her, the moment she gets into the zone, she turns into an unstoppable force!"
Joining Varesa in the update 5.5 spotlight is Iansan herself! Previously just an NPC, Iansan is now stepping up as a playable character. As a 4-star Electro user wielding a Polearm, she brings her training prowess to the battlefield. Varesa's admiration for her mentor is palpable:

"Iansan is Natlan’s top trainer and the person I admire the most! People say I’m talented, but without her training, that talent would have gone to waste. Don’t worry if you’re not used to working out—Coach Iansan knows how to train anyone! Oh, by the way, wanna check out this flyer? She’s recruiting new students!"
With these exciting additions, update 5.5 promises to bring fresh dynamics and engaging stories to the world of Genshin Impact. Get ready to explore new adventures with Varesa and Iansan!
