Genshin Impact 2.0 will launch with the release of several new characters. But players waiting for Baal will have to wait a bit longer to utilize the power of the Electro Archon.

Genshin Impact has given players the chance to summon the Anemo Archon Venti and the Geo Archon Zhongli. But Baal will not be released with the launch of Inazuma.

It also looks like players will not get the chance to wield her power in the next update of Genshin Impact, according to the current data. Players may have to wait until after the two updates for this new character.

It is likely to give time for the story to progress and introduce Baal as both a god and an individual. Players are likely to get more information once the story of Inazuma kicks off later this month.

Who is Baal in Genshin Impact?

Baal is the Electro Archon of Teyvat and is currently ruling over Inazuma with an iron grip. She keeps outsiders locked out of the country while keeping its people trapped within.

Players will have to traverse her region and likely will conflict with her army. Baal will play a big role in the Inazuma storyline, and it will probably take players several updates before completion. This mysterious character has many secrets, and players will take the main role as they hunt down the truth in Inazuma.

Genshin Impact players have a lot of content to cover once Genshin Impact 2.0 launches later this month. There will be an entirely new region to explore and new enemies to defeat. Players have their work cut out for them while they wait for Baal's release.
