Genshin Impact 6.3 Banners (Rerun & New Characters)

Version 6.3 Banners of Genshin Impact

Hi everyone! The wait is almost over for the second half of version 6.1, which will finally feature the long-awaited rerun banners of Arlecchino and Zhongli. 

Genshin Impact 6.3 Update

However, today’s discussion isn’t about those banners — instead, let’s take a step into the future and talk about what’s coming next. In this video, we’ll explore the possible characters who might appear in the distant version 6.3 update. As the saying goes among Genshin players, “Those who prepare early, get the characters first,” so this might help you plan your Primogems wisely. To begin, let’s talk about the schedule. Following Genshin Impact’s consistent six-week update pattern, version 6.2 (codename Luna 3) is expected to arrive around December 3, 2025, while version 6.3 (codename Luna 4) should follow approximately on January 14, 2026. This pattern has rarely changed throughout the game’s history, making it a reliable estimate for upcoming patches.

Now, let’s move to the most exciting part — new playable characters. According to early leaks and credible community discussions, version 6.3 may finally introduce the enigmatic Columbina, one of the most mysterious members of the Fatui Harbingers. This theory fits perfectly with HoYoverse’s established trend — the fourth major update in a region often features an influential character connected to the ongoing storyline, and Columbina’s narrative importance has been teased since Fontaine’s debut. But she might not be the only one. Rumors suggest that the update could also bring new female characters tied to Fontaine’s side lore or even special limited events. Although there isn’t solid information yet — just scattered mentions of possible names and elements — it’s safe to say that version 6.3 could be a major turning point for character releases. Adding to that, the update will likely coincide with the annual Feast of Lanterns celebration, a perfect moment for the developers to showcase multiple characters in grand style, similar to how past festivals introduced popular heroes. Now, moving on to reruns — and here’s where things get even more interesting. Based on current banner rotations, the Cryo powerhouse Skirk is heavily rumored to receive her first rerun, potentially alongside her companion from the Escoffier faction, who has also built a strong fanbase among players. As for the final banner slot, two major names are being discussed — the majestic Neuvillette and the elegant Xianyun. Both are incredibly popular and haven’t been featured for quite some time, which makes predicting the lineup quite challenging. Either of them would make a fantastic addition for players who missed their previous banners. So, what do you think? Which character are you hoping to see in version 6.3?
