Leaks of the Genshin Impact version 5.1 banners have surfaced. Check out the leaked Xilonen banner and other Genshin 5.1 banners to see if anyone's worth your Primogems.

Genshin Impact 5.1 banners leaks

We might have just gotten the new region Natlan with the 5.0 update, but leaks are already looking ahead. This includes the banners for the upcoming 5.1 update.

According to hakushin, the featured 5-stars in the banners for Genshin Impact 5.1 will be:

  • First Half: Xilonen (Geo Sword) and Chiori (Geo Sword)
  • Second Half: Nahida (Dendro Catalyst) and Hu Tao (Pyro Polearm)

It also goes that each character's signature weapon will run alongside them:

  • First Half: Peak Patrol Song (Sword) and Uraku Misugiri (Sword)
  • Second Half: A Thousand Floating Dreams (Catalyst) and Staff of Homa (Polearm)

The 4-stars for each banner are currently unknown.

This means that the new character, Xilonen, and her signature weapon will be in the update's first half. She is the only new playable character in this patch, so it should be a no-brainer if you're after collecting them all. However, the Xilonen banner will be simultaneous with Chiori's first re-run.

Meanwhile, the annual rotation for Archons continues with Nahida.

Apart from Xilonen and her signature weapon, there isn't much new content for Genshin Impact 5.1.

Xilonen is an upcoming 5-star Geo Sword character. She scales well with DEF and can either deal damage or be a more supportive unit. Xilonen's Nightsoul mechanic allows her to endlessly climb walls in Natlan. Read more about her kit here.

If the leak turns out to be correct, Xilonen's banner will start in the first half of Genshin Impact 5.1. This is scheduled for October 9, 2024.
