Risa Mei, the English VA for Genshin Impact's Kokomi, writes heartwarming message to fans for upcoming pulls

With the Genshin Impact 2.1 update right around the corner, fans are pretty excited to finally get their hands on the content and story expansion that miHoYo will be looking to introduce in the next major update.

However, the continuation of the Inazuma arc is not the only thing that the community is looking forward to. Genshin Impact 2.1 will also introduce the Electro Archon, Baal/Raiden Shogun, Kujou Sara, Kokomi, and Horizon Zero Dawn’s Aloy as playable characters.

While Baal and Sara’s combined banners go up as soon as the patch goes live, Kokomi’s will follow after a few days. Aloy’s banner will first hit the PlayStation platform and then arrive for other users.

The Genshin Impact 2.1 banners are one of the most highly anticipated pulls by the community. And with how unforgivable the gatcha system can be in the game, the English voice actor for Sangonomiya Kokomi has written a beautiful message for fans and players.
