Genshin Impact 3.7 update's trailer recently teased Charlotte, an upcoming NPC from Fontaine. She is a journalist who works for The Steambird, a newspaper company in Fontaine, and will be one of the main characters in the flagship event of the next patch. Although HoYoverse has not shared any information about her, many leaks suggest that she could be released as a Cryo user after the Fontaine update.

This Genshin Impact article will cover all the details that the leakers have revealed about Charlotte, the new speculated playable character from the Hydro Nation. But do keep in mind that this is not an official announcement and the details are subject to change.


Charlotte will be a Cryo Catalyst unit in Genshin Impact, as per leaks

Mero is a popular name within the Genshin Impact community. According to them, Travelers will meet a journalist from Fontaine in the version 3.7 main event, who will be playable in the future. It is quite clear that the above post is referring to Charlotte who recently made an appearance in the 3.7 Special Program livestream and is also in the new version's trailer.

Mero also shared a post showcasing Charlotte's full body model from different angles. Based on this leak, it seems that she has the Cryo Vision, which is attached to a white-colored pouch around her right thigh. Although there haven't been any leaks about her rarity, it is widely speculated that she will likely be a 4-star character.

Interestingly, the last new 5-star Cryo unit, Shenhe, was released in version 2.4, so it seems fans might have to wait a little more for a 5-star of this element.

There are currently 12 playable Cryo characters in Genshin Impact, including Aloy, and none of them is a Catalyst user. However, it seems that fans may finally get one. It is speculated that Charlotte is likely to be a Catalyst user, the first in the Cryo family, which is an exciting piece of news for many fans.

Charlotte's release date is currently unknown and the v4.0 banner leaks didn't mention her name either, so many are speculating that she won't be released before v4.1. On that note, fans should take everything with a grain of salt since the information is based on leaks.
