There have been multiple leaks and rumors about Yae Miko, who’s quickly become one of the most popular characters in the game since her introduction in two update previews. A recent leak on theGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddit has apparently revealed the in-game screenshot for Yae Miko ahead of the character’s officially confirmed release date of update 2.5.
Previous leaks have revealed a lot of information about Yae Miko. One of the most credibleGenshin Impactleakers named Tangzhu has revealed that Yae Miko does not use the usual DPS artifact set with a focus on the three main stats: Attack, Elemental Damage, and Critical rate/damage.

When it comes to her boss materials, the leak confirms that she will be using talent ascensions dropped by La Signora. Even though she was rumored to be released alongside another popular character, thelong-awaited Kamisato Ayato, it seems like miHoYo decided to delay his arrival once again. His fans have been excited over the past couple of days as the official Arataki Itto teaser video included a couple of Ayato’s voice lines. This is usually the way miHoYo announces that a new character will become playable in the foreseeable future.
