Genshin Impact Reveals Kuki Shinobu Character Demo

Genshin Impact's gacha-based system brings a new set of limited characters with each new version of the game. A couple of weeks ago the game's official social media accounts have revealed the two characters that are scheduled to arrive in update 2.7.

After a three-week delay, the game finally introduced the long-awaited five-star Hydro bow user Yelan. However, with her banner, Discerner of Enigmas, coming to an end, it's time for a new Genshin Impact limited banner to take its place.

Genshin Impact's official YouTube channel has finally released the character demo for one of the upcoming character Kuki Shinobu, who is part of the famous Arataki gang led by popular Geo claymore character Arataki Itto. Even though she joined Itto's gang at the later stage, she's become one of its main members who transformed the way the gang operates. As the gang's second-in-command, Kuki Shinobu often finds herself getting her troublesome leader out of tricky situations such as being in jail or fighting a large group of enemies.




As mentioned in the demo, Kuki Shinobu's primary responsibilities are to bring in business, maintain a stable team, as well as bailing the team from the Police Station. She is one of the most anticipated four-star characters in the game thanks to her unique ninja-themed design. However, fans are a bit disappointed by the fact that she will apparently be an off-field support style Genshin Impact character, even though she has some of the best combat animations in the game.

Kuki Shinobu is a four-star Electro character which means that players will be able to level up her constellations fairly easy. Her elemental skill, Sanctifying Ring, allows her to create an Electro ring around her that expands every second dealing AoE damage. Goei Narukami Kariyama Rite is the name of Kuki's burst, and it makes her stab her sword in the ground creating a damage barrier for a couple of seconds. Similarly to the recently released character Yelan, Kuki Shinobu's skills will apparently scale with HP which is unusual for four-star characters.

Kuki Shinobu arrives on the same banner as her gang leader Arataki Itto who will serve as the only limited five-star character of the update's second banner cycle. Itto was added to the game back in Genshin Impact update 2.3 and this will be his first banner re-run. Considering their in-game relationship, Itto and Kuki will most likely have great synergy on the battlefield.
