Yae Miko has been confirmed as the next Genshin Impact character

Mihoyo has finally confirmed the Genshin Impact Yae Miko character, who may drop in update 2.5.

It's long been rumoured but has now finally been confirmed that the next a Genshin Impact Yae Miko banner is surely coming soon in 2022 – and we've got some new character details too.

Yae Miko is one of the main NPCs that Genshin Impact players meet as part of the Ayaka was Yae's first guest of the year.

It was very clear that she was being set up as a proper future playable character and now Mihoyo has finally confirmed it. She won't appear in version 2.4, Yun Jin – but Yae Miko is instead strongly rumoured for Genshin Impact 2.5, which may hit around February.

According to the new tweet, Yae Miko is "a descendant of Kitsune lineage" – Kitsune meaning "fox" in Japanese. Yae Miko has previously been referred to as a "fox lady" and is clearly meant to be connected to the similar Yae Sakura from Mihoyo's other game Honkai Impact 3rd – they even have the same voice actor, Ayane Sakura.
