Genshin Impact Leaks Reveal Details About Natlan's Pyro Archon

New details about Genshin Impact's upcoming Pyro Archon from Natlan have surfaced thanks to recent leaks. The Seven, Genshin Impact's Archons, are powerful deities overseeing Teyvat's seven regions. Each Archon is associated with a specific region, element, and divine ideals. Following the arrival of Fontaine's Hydro Archon, Lady Furina, anticipation builds for Natlan's Pyro Archon.

Natlan, confirmed as the next major region in Genshin Impact update 5.0, is known as the Pyro nation. Reliable leaker, Uncle K, has shed light on the Pyro Archon's story and abilities. The leak suggests the Archon's narrative will "anger Apep," one of Sumeru's seven legendary Elemental Dragons, hinting at a possible geographical connection between Natlan and Sumeru.

Expected Abilities and Release Date

Uncle K's leak indicates the Pyro Archon will possess potent on-field and off-field capabilities, a common trait among Archons. Similar to Raiden Shogun, maximizing the character's Constellations, particularly to level 2, is likely to be beneficial. One ability is expected to enhance the entire team's survivability, while their C6 effect will provide a team-wide buff.

While these leaks should be treated cautiously, the Pyro Archon's arrival in the playable roster is likely several months away. HoYoverse's pattern of releasing new Archons two updates after a major region's introduction (Nahida in 3.2, Furina in 4.2) suggests a potential release around update 5.2 or later.

The Archon's identity remains uncertain. The main storyline confirms the existence of at least two Pyro Archons, one named Murata. The connection to Vennessa, a Mondstadt warrior from the "children of Murata" tribe, is intriguing, but the tribe's distant history obscures any definitive link to the current Archon.
