Amidst that HoYoverse has recently conducted drip marketing for the 3.5 update as they revealed Dehya and Mika as the upcoming playable characters. While the latter character is from Monstadt, the former is from Sumeru and was first shown during the promotional video for the desert nation.

Dehya or the ‘Flame Mane’ will become a new Pyro claymore user in Genshin Impact. Since she is one of the first dark-skinned characters, players who wish to experiment will not want to miss their chance to add her to their unit. On the flip side, Mika is the first Cryo catalyst user in the game that might shoot up his sales even though he holds the 4-star rarity.

Mika, who belongs from Monstadt is a very important character for the lore, as he s a member of Knights of Favonius, and also knows much about Varka, the former Grand master of the Monstadt army. As they are the characters for 3.5 version, Travelers can expect them to release around the first week of March.
