- Lan Yan is the new leaked character who is rumored to become playable in version 5.3.
- She is said to be a 4-star Anemo character who uses a Catalyst and her kit is able to create Anemo shields and pull enemies closer providing crowd control.
- Lan Yan is currently speculated to be related to Madame Ping, with rumors pointing her to be the grand daughter of the Adeptus.
Genshin Impact 5.2 is currently in full swing but players are already looking forward towards version 5.3. Genshin 5.3 is rumored to feature Mavuika and Citlali as the two new 5-star characters. However, there has been another rumor recently about a 4-star character from Liyue also making an appearance in version 5.3. The new 4-star character is Lan Yan, an Anemo Catalyst user. With the Lantern Rite event leaked to be in version 5.3, Lan Yan will likely become the representative character for it.
Who Is Lan Yan in Genshin Impact
Madame Ping was previously rumored to become playable in this Lantern Rite event, but, that no longer seems to be the case. However, Lanyan’s leaked splash art posted on Reddit shows a clear resemblance to Street Rambler, the Adepti form of Madame Ping. Although it’s clear that Madame Ping is not Lan Yan, it is possible that Lan Yan is actually related to her — maybe her granddaughter?
Currently, we know very little about Lan Yan as she was a complete surprise even for leakers. We will create a dedicated article for her as more information is revealed.
Lanyan’s Leaked Kit In Genshin Impact
Recent leaks from HomDGcat has also revealed Lan Yan’s kit. She is going to be an Anemo shielder, while also acting as a crowd controller with her abilities. Her shields can also undergo elemental conversion into Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro elements, making it quite useful against such enemies.
Overall, it’s great to have another shielder in Genshin Impact. It’s also a relief that another 5-star character is not going to compete with Mavuika and Citlali, because that would be very hard for Genshin Impact players, especially if they don’t follow our Genshin codes list to extra primogems.
