All Genshin Impact Characters (Rarities, Attributes, and How to Get Them)

Genshin Impact Characters Overview

Characters are the main draw to Genshin Impact, and there is a vast collection of personalities and abilities.

As updates happen in Genshin Impact, new 4 and 5-star characters are added to the game.

New 5-star characters are limited and are only attainable during their specific banner. New 4-star characters also appear on limited banners, but are added to the standard banner in the following update.

This will be a list of all of the characters added to the game in order of release. Newer characters often require materials that are found later in the game, so you can use this as a guide to see how far into the game you need to go to upgrade certain characters.
