Genshin Impact Xilonen: Kit, Release Date, Weapon & Element

Xilonen is one of the new Natlan characters in Genshin Impact, and she has generated quite a bit of hype in the community. Her leaked kit is extremely strong for a support unit and players are already dubbing her as the Geo Kazuha. Xilonen is also one of the most well-designed characters in Natlan, and her kit is said to provide universal support to the entire team. If you are also interested in Xilonen, then here is everything we currently know about her kit, release date, constellation, weapon, and element in Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact Xilonen Release Date

Xilonen has been confirmed for Genshin Impact 5.1 banners with Hoyoverse’s latest drip marketing campaign. Version 5.1 is expected to be released around October 9, 2024, if we calculate using the normal version cycle for Genshin Impact. However, these are based on speculations so the timing might be a bit off.

Genshin Impact Xilonen Rarity, Element, Weapon Type, and Lore

Xilonen is a 5-star Geo character in Genshin Impact. Her vision was first revealed during the Natlan Ignition teaser, confirming her to be a Geo user. The recent drip marketing campaign also confirmed Xilonen as a Sword weapon type user.

Lore wise, Xilonen is part of the Children of Echoes tribe. Xilonen is a blacksmith, and her skill with the forge is renowned throughout Natlan. She however doesn’t care about her renown and fancy titles, instead focusing only on refining the ore.

Genshin Impact Xilonen Leaked Kit

Xilonen’s leaked kit suggests that she is a universal support unit for all Natlan characters, and is even dubbed as Geo Kazuha. Here is a quick overview of her leaked kit:

• Charged Normal Attack: Consumes stamina and unleashes two rapid sword strikes. Upon hitting the enemy, they will lose gravity (?) for a while, and this effect can be triggered once every 6 seconds.
• Elemental Skill: She enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state as a Leopard Spirit, which increases her movement speed, and using Elemental Skill again exits the state. When she uses Elemental Skill in Nightsoul’s Blessing state, three of her Jewels will light up with colors of the elements of her party allies. As Xilonen exits the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, she creates a Halo.
• Elemental Burst: Xilonen unleashes her Leopard Spirit onto the field, lasting for a brief duration. This Leopard Spirit is attached to any active on-field character and provides buff according to the number of Pyro / Hydro / Electro / Cryo / Geo characters in the team.
• Passive: Records the number of element types in the team and provides buff according to these numbers.

Another leak posted on Reddit via Foul suggests that her Jewels reduce the Resistance% of the element based on the elements of her allies. This indicates that Xilonen can effectively work with any character in the game and will be particularly good with mono-team comps.

Genshin Impact Xilonen Leaked Constellations

Xilonen’s early constellations have also been leaked and they include more support abilities. However, these are very early leaks, so it is likely that much of it will be changed over the period of time up to her release. Now, let’s take a look at her leaked constellations:

• Constellation 1: Reduces Night Soul consumption.
• Constellation 2: Buffs differently based on the element types in the team.
• Constellation 4: While the Halo exists, normal and charged attacks from allies will include a Defense % increase of Xilonen.
• Constellation 6: Increases damage % for all kinds of attacks.

So, there you have it. Here is everything we currently know about Xilonen’s kit, release date, constellations, and weapons. These are still early leaks from the current beta and her kit will likely change over the period, so don’t consider these as her main kit. We will constantly update this article as new information comes out about Xilonen.
