Current Genshin Impact 6.6 Banners Overview
Genshin Impact Version 6.6 officially launched on May 20, 2026! This update features two phases of event banners:
Phase 1 introduces the brand-new 5-star character Nicole Reeyn, a Pyro Catalyst user from the Hexenzirkel codenamed "N" — a mysterious adult witch who serves as the Travelers' guide through the northern lands of Nordkalai.
Alongside her debut, veteran Pyro support Durin returns for a rerun, making this phase a strong pick for players building Hexerei teams.
The new 4-star Prune — the littlest "Witch Hunter" from the Hexenzirkel — also joins the roster as an Anemo Catalyst support.
Without further ado, let's look at the exciting character updates coming in Genshin Version 6.6 👇
 Nicole (New) Element: Pyro Rarity: 5-Star |  Durin (Rerun) Element: Pyro Rarity: 5-Star |  Prune (New) Element: Anemo Rarity: 4-Star |
Phase 2（June 10 - June 30）brings the new 5-star Lohen (Loen), a Cryo Polearm user, alongside the rerun of Pyro powerhouse Mavuika.
 Mavuika (Rerun) Element: Pyro Rarity: 5-Star |  Lohen (New) Element: Cryo Rarity: 5-Star |
💡 Note that Lohen is expected to be added to the Standard Banner after his debut, so pulling during his debut window is strongly recommended.
Whether you're a free-to-play player or a spender, having enough Primogems is essential if you want to secure the characters you're aiming for. Check out our Version 6.6 Primogem farming guide to plan your pulls ahead of time.

Upcoming Genshin Banners & Leaks (Version 7.0)
The massive Version 7.0 update (launching early on August 12, 2026, as HoYoverse skips Version 6.8) is undoubtedly the most eagerly awaited release on the current Genshin Impact roadmap.
Historically, X.0 versions bring entirely new regions and major main storyline progressions. This time, the spotlight is on the highly anticipated Cryo Archon—Anastasya Feodorovna Snezhnaya (The Tsaritsa)—and the official unveiling of the Snezhnaya region.
Alongside the Archon's debut, the community is already buzzing with leaks regarding the initial 7.0 banner lineup, with all eyes currently on the bewitching Electro Siren, Vodyanitsa, and the calculating 9th Fatui Harbinger, Pantalone.
Check out the comprehensive breakdown of these two highly anticipated 7.0 characters in the table below:👇️
 Pantalone (New) Element: Unknown Rarity: 5-Star |  Vodyanitsa (New) Element: Hydro Rarity: 5-Star |
Upcoming Genshin Banners & Leaks (Version 7.1-7.3)
Following the explosive launch of Snezhnaya in Version 7.0, the momentum continues to build heading into the mid-patch cycle. Leaks surrounding Versions 7.1 through 7.3 suggest that HoYoverse is preparing to release some of the most lore-significant characters in Teyvat history.
Standing at the peak of player anticipation are the legendary Hexenzirkel elder, Alice, and the ruler of the frost nation herself, the Ice God / Snezhnayan Queen (Anastasya Feodorovna Snezhnaya).

Here's a full pull recommendation breakdown for every confirmed character from 6.4 through 7.0, so you can plan your Primogem budget in advance.
⚠️ Saving tip: If targeting Alice (7.3) or Sandrone (6.7), start saving now. Back-to-back 5★ patches from 6.5 onward leave little recovery time — especially Nefer + Lauma in the same Phase 2.
