Genshin Impact Leaks Major Details About Pyro Archon

New Genshin Impact Leaks Detail Natlan's Pyro Archon

Recent leaks offer intriguing insights into Genshin Impact's upcoming Pyro Archon from the Natlan region. The Archons, also known as The Seven, are powerful deities overseeing Teyvat's seven regions, each associated with a specific element and divine principles. Fontaine's Hydro Archon, Lady Furina, recently joined the roster, and anticipation builds for Natlan's Pyro Archon's debut.

Natlan, confirmed as the next major region in Genshin Impact update 5.0, is the Pyro nation, setting the stage for the Pyro Archon's arrival. Reliable leaker, Uncle K, has shared details about the Archon's storyline and abilities. The leak suggests the Archon's narrative will "anger Apep," one of Sumeru's legendary Elemental Dragons, hinting at a possible geographical connection between Natlan and Sumeru.

Gameplay Expectations: Pyro Archon Kit

Uncle K's leak indicates the Pyro Archon will possess potent on-field and off-field capabilities, a common trait among Archons. Similar to Raiden Shogun, maximizing the character's Constellations, particularly to level 2, is expected to be beneficial. One ability will enhance the entire team's survivability, and the C6 effect will provide a team-wide buff.

Release Date Speculation and Identity

While these leaks should be treated cautiously, the Pyro Archon's playable release is likely several months away, potentially three to four. HoYoverse's pattern of releasing Archons two updates after a new region's introduction (Nahida in 3.2, Furina in 4.2) suggests a similar timeline.

The Archon's identity remains uncertain. Genshin Impact's storyline reveals the existence of at least two Pyro Archons, one named Murata. The connection between Murata and Mondstadt's Vennessa, a warrior from the "children of Murata" tribe, adds to the mystery. However, the tribe's long history of separation suggests Murata may be a past Archon. Further information is needed to confirm whether Murata is the current or a previous Pyro Archon.
