However, many players are now turning their attention to Version 6.0 and the new region Natlan. With the first glimpses of the Four Archons and a mysterious young girl, the community is already buzzing with excitement.
Since most of the details about Version 5.8 have already been leaked, let’s focus on what’s new. According to aggregated leaks, the Cryo Archon might make a brief back-view appearance in the 5.8 livestream—likely a teaser—so we'll need to wait for the next promotional PV for more.
In the upcoming 6.x Natlan updates, Tartaglia (Childe) is said to have limited screen time, possibly due to hidden plot developments around him. As for Little Durin, aside from being known as a Pyro Vaporize DPS, other details remain unknown. Key characters like Grandmaster Varka, the Witch Nicole, and Alice will reportedly show up in the mid-to-late 6.x versions.
So far, nine new characters from Natlan have been identified:
The Lamplighter (male)
The High Priestess (female)
Pyro Ekkoife
Little Durin
The Girl
White Horse Immortal
Varka
Nicole
Alice
Of these, the Lamplighter’s name is Wenderlaire, a Dendro Bow C who uses Moon-Charged Electro Arrows, and the High Priestess is Phitim, a Moon Crystal Catalyst C.
In Version 6.1, Pyro Ekkoife will be added to the character banner. Her mechanics involve granting unique effects based on the number of Pyro and Hydro characters in the party. This could signal a meta shift favoring Pyro and Hydro units—great news for players using the Pyro Archon and Neuvillette!
In Version 6.2, Little Durin will appear as a Pyro Vaporize DPS. The mysterious Girl will debut in Version 6.3 as a core Moon Reaction character with strong Hydro application—making her an ideal support for Skirk and Little Durin teams.
Looking further ahead:
Varka, a Anemo DPS, will arrive in the 6.5 banner.
Nicole, an off-field Cryo support, will be featured in 6.6 and is expected to be the second major banner star of that version.
Alice, a background Pyro DPS, will launch in 6.7.
That said, remember: all of this information is based on unofficial leaks, and since these span multiple future versions, details are always subject to change. Travelers, take all leaks with a grain of salt and stay rational!
