Genshin Impact Leak Reveals New Event Weapon

Genshin Impact is buzzing with rumors about its upcoming Version 5.4 update, particularly an intriguing new event-exclusive weapon. This addition seems to be designed with a demonic flair, boasting a one-eyed face sticking its tongue out—reminiscent of the earlier “Toukabou Shigure” sword. Alongside this, fans can look forward to seeing Yumemizuki Mizuki, the new character debut, while popular favorites Wriothesley, Furina, and Sigewinne are also making their return.

Recently, a leak has revealed a glimpse of this anticipated weapon set to be offered in the Version 5.4 update of Genshin Impact. Known for bestowing players with a host of exclusive rewards through its events, Genshin Impact’s Version 5.3 has only just concluded, where it revived the Lantern Rite tradition, offering a selection of free four-star Liyue characters. With the next update, the bar is set even higher for event exclusives.

Teasers from HoYoverse have already started shaping expectations for Version 5.4. With Yumemizuki Mizuki as the fresh face from Inazuma—the first since Chiori in the 4.3 update—players will return to the beautifully crafted Japan-themed island for the main events. Meanwhile, a striking new weapon awaits, hinted at through recent leaks. It’s designed as a playful yet fierce polearm, styled with a single eye and tongue, similar to the former event loot, Toukabou Shigure. This novelty is expected to drop on February 12, along with the rest of the update.

This particular weapon is generating a lot of excitement among Genshin’s spear-wielding community. It’s rumored to offer a robust 30.6% Energy Recharge stat at max level. Coupled with its ability to boost Attack and Movement Speed post-Elemental Skill usage, it could become a sought-after choice for fans of characters like Xiangling and Hu Tao.

Apart from this new armament, Version 5.4 is promised to usher in Mizuki and will revive other beloved characters through banner reruns—Wriothesley in the first phase, with Furina and Sigewinne following suit. There’s also chatter about a new character event dubbed “Traveler’s Tales,” focusing on those from Mondstadt and Liyue, potentially adding another layer of narrative depth. These updates are sure to delight both longstanding and newfound fans of Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact invites players into the vibrant world of Teyvat, where life brims with elemental magic. In this sprawling RPG, you awaken separated from a sibling, journeying to uncover the mysteries of this enchanting land. In doing so, you seek insight from The Seven—guardians of the elements—while joining a diverse roster of characters and unfolding Teyvat’s many secrets.

The game’s credentials speak to its success and enduring appeal. Released on September 28, 2020, Genshin Impact supports online multiplayer across various platforms, retaining a solid reputation for engaging gameplay. As it continues to expand and evolve, Genshin Impact promises to keep players captivated with its creative and dynamic updates.
