A new post on the popularGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddit has revealed the model of a new character named Momoka, who is scheduled to arrive in update 3.7. According to previous leaks,Momoka will be tied to the Inazuma regionwhich means that the main storyline could head back to the Electro nation. When it comes to her rarity, rumors have revealed that she will be a new five-star Geo character, which will make her the first character to have this element and rarity after Itto who was released back in December 2021.
Many fans claim that they like her overall design and the fact thatHoYoverse is finally adding a new Geo character. She is also expected to be a sword user who can provide shields which led many fans to debate if HoYoverse will manage to make her fit the current meta.
The release of thenew Dendro element has introduced six new elemental reactions, none of which include Geo which made the element even more isolated than it previously was. Geo can trigger only one elemental reaction, Crystylize, which provides a decent shield when a character picks up elemental shards from the ground. The only reason it works in certain team comps is that it cannot interfere with any other elemental reactions.
Even though many players avoid having Geo in their team composition,recent Spiral Abyss reports inGenshin Impacthave revealed that some Geo users like Zhongli have a very high pick rate. However, the main reason why players take Zhongli is the fact that his kit is stacked with utility. Fans hope that Momoka could have a similar kit that would make her a very flexible character.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5, and a Switch version is in development.
