Genshin Impact is about to release its 1.6 update, and while the new land mass of Inazuma isn’t coming, a new character is giving us our first look at Baal, the Electro Archon.
That would be Kazuha, the new Anemo hero that is coming in 1.6 (seen above). His story trailer has leaked online, and it turns out, he has a history with Baal. Players have grabbed screenshots of what Baal looks like in the trailer, giving us a possible look at her final form when she inevitably arrives as a playable hero (villain?) down the road:
All we can really gather is that she has a kimono (Inazuma is based on Japan), a sword and bangs. And will obviously be an electro character, a class which is supposed to be getting buffs some time soon. We also learned a bit about her from Kazuha’s voice lines, and his rather tragic connection to her:
“About the Raiden Shogun:
I’ve asked myself this question many times since leaving Inazuma. Do I simply resent the Raiden Shogun because of what happened in that duel? Because of the lethal stroke she dealt my dear friend? I’ve thought about this a good long time, and I believe the answer is no. My friend died an honorable death in that duel, and the Shogun was not unjustified in her conduct. My dissatisfaction with her has its roots in the Vision Hunt Decree. No one has the right to rob another of their hopes and dreams – not even a god.”
Kazuha is referring to something we’ve known about before this, that Baal has issued a decree that no one is to be allowed to use Visions, the things that give people their elemental powers in this world. No doubt that will be a major plot point when the Inazuma story finally does arrive.
And when will that be?
I’ve said before that I don’t believe Inazuma will get here before the one year anniversary of the game’s official release in September. It’s going to be the largest update the game has seen to date, and we’re only a few more months away from that now. And of course, I don’t believe that Baal herself will show up before Inazuma does. And she may not even arrive at exactly the same time, and may appear later. Zhongli, the Geo Archon, wasn’t immediately available when we had access to Liyue, after all.
In any case, any amount of info on Baal at this point is enough to get fans excited. Hopefully more will be on the way soon.
