Some leaks speculate that the "GENSHIN CONCERT" announced by miHoYo on the official Genshin Impact Twitter account will be played in the 2.5 livestream right after the Special Program.
Leaks and speculations of the upcoming patch
Leaks from the past month suggest that Yae Miko will be the new five-star character introduced in version 2.5. Yae Miko is a powerful 5-star electro character using a catalyst weapon. Several leaks of her attacks and talents went viral as the beta for version 2.5 went live last month.
Leaks suggest that the first half of the new update will feature only one banner. In contrast, the second half will feature double rerun banners of two Inazuman characters, 'Raiden Shogun' and 'Sangonomiya Kokomi.'
Two new weapons, a weekly boss and several other events, were also leaked from the beta in the past month.
The upcoming patch looks very promising and players will have lots to do in the coming days. Players pulling for Yae Miko may very well start farming her materials in advance.
