HoYoVerse teased the two “new” Genshin Impact characters Charlotte and Hydro Archon Furina ahead of 4.2. It seems they’ll be the new additions to the roster when the next update appears. This meant new official art for both characters, as well as some details about their element. The announcement didn’t mention their rarities, though we already know Furina will be a five-star unit.

First, we’ve known about Charlotte in Genshin Impact since 3.7. She wasn’t a playable character, but she played a big part in the event added in that update.  The Steambird newspaper editor-in-chief is known as the Lens of Verity. Her Constellation is Hualina Veritas, and she has a Cryo vision.
