Genshin Impact fans are being dealt yet another blow as recent leaks have confirmed that Shenhe will not be making her much-anticipated return in Version 5.2. The Cryo specialist has not graced the limited gacha banner for over a year, with her last appearance during the Version 3.5 update alongside the re-run of Ayaka.
Despite the game’s expansive roster of characters, Shenhe has become a ghost in the landscape of Teyvat. Since her debut in Version 2.4, she has captivated players with her unique utility and synergy with powerful Cryo teams. With the ability to enhance Cryo DMG and cut down enemy resistances, she’s still a vital asset for any serious team composition aiming for high damage output in Genshin Impact.

The Drought of Cryo Characters
As of now, Shenhe is set to continue her record as the longest five-star character in Genshin Impact history without a re-run. Her absence throughout the Fontaine cycle was felt by players who currently find themselves longing for her return. Adding insult to injury, the last Cryo character to join the fray was the four-star Charlotte in Version 4.2, leaving fans itching for fresh options.
However, hope might be on the horizon with a new leak suggesting that the upcoming Natlan character, Citlali, is expected to debut in Version 5.3. This new Cryo character could signal the end of the current drought, potentially re-energizing Cryo-focused teams with fresh strategies. Citlali is rumored to launch alongside the much-anticipated Pyro Archon Mavuika, which could set the stage for some thrilling elemental combinations for players to explore.
What Lies Ahead for Cryo Fans
In summary, while the community eagerly awaits Shenhe’s re-run, it’s clear that players must endure a bit longer as Version 5.2 approaches without her inclusion. The anticipation doesn’t end there, as the introduction of Citlali promises to shake up the Cryo meta and provide new avenues for creativity in team compositions. Gamers should keep their eyes peeled for more leaks and updates, as it looks like Genshin Impact has plenty of surprises left up its sleeve.
Until then, players can continue refining their strategies, awaiting the day when Shenhe once again lights up the banners for the avid collectors and combat strategists in Genshin Impact. Your journey through Teyvat continues!
