The developers of fantasy open-world RPG Genshin Impact have revealed a new playable character to arrive in Version 5.3. Pyro Archon Mavuika blazes into the roster on her trusty bike, like the brightest flame reborn she is.
“Even in the complex tapestry of Teyvat’s night sky, such a dazzling constellation is seldom seen. Its scorching radiance is as though it wants to burn a hole in the very fabric of the sky itself. When it finally becomes a shooting star streaking toward the horizon, that fire will kindle even the deepest, coldest nights into brightest day.” —Sighed by “B” during a divination
Mavuika, the latest in the line of Pyro Archons of Natlan, bears the Sol Invictus Constellation and the Ancient Name “Kiongozi”, which means leader. She who shoulders the title of the “strongest,” she who respects all beings, be they strong or weak, and treats all equally. For this, the people love her, sing her praises, and follow her willingly, with all their hearts.
This is not her first rodeo, and from the Archon Quest, Travelers could find out that Mavuika had already been an Archon 500 years ago. She worked out an ambitious plan of restoring and protecting Natlan that required her to relinquish her title and life, only to return 500 years later and finish it all.
Now she plans to venture into the Abyss accompanied only by the Traveler, immune to its effects, to save Natlan once and for all.
“What did she sacrifice? What did she give up? What kind of will has led her to this day? We have no doubt that she will lead Natlan to yet another victory. Our Sun will never set.”
At the moment, the game is going through Version 5.2. Ready to give up all your Primogems?
