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 leaks. The Archons, also known as The Seven, are powerful deities overseeing Teyvat's seven regions, each with their own region, element, and ideals. The recent addition, Fontaine's Hydro Archon, Lady Furina, proved highly versatile. With Natlan's arrival nearing, speculation around its Pyro Archon is intensifying.
Natlan, confirmed as Genshin Impact's next major region (update 5.0), is known as the Pyro nation, making the Pyro Archon's debut highly anticipated. Reliable leaker, Uncle K, has shared insights into the Archon's storyline and abilities. The leak mentions the Archon's story will "anger Apep," a Sumeru Elemental Dragon, hinting at a possible geographical connection between Natlan and Sumeru.
Pyro Archon Abilities and Potential Release
Uncle K suggests the Pyro Archon will possess strong on-field and off-field capabilities, a common trait among Archons. Similar to Raiden Shogun, maximizing the character's Constellations (at least to level 2) is likely beneficial. One ability is expected to enhance overall team survivability, and their C6 effect will provide a team-wide buff.
While exciting, these leaks should be treated cautiously. The Pyro Archon's playable release is likely several months away (3-4 months minimum). HoYoverse's pattern of releasing Archons two updates after a major region's launch (Nahida in 3.2, Furina in 4.2) suggests a similar timeframe.
The Archon's identity remains ambiguous. The main storyline confirms the existence of at least two Pyro Archons, one named Murata. Whether Murata is the past or present Archon remains uncertain. Mondstadt's Vennessa, a legendary warrior, belonged to the "children of Murata," a tribe whose connection to Murata has faded over time.
