Genshin Impact 2.7 Leaks: Arataki Itto and Kuki Shinobu likely to share a new Banner

Released during the Genshin Impact 2.3 update, Arataki itto became the last piece of the famous Mono Geo Team. The important character may be back soon, however, as it seems Arataki Itto will return in a Genshin Impact 2.7 banner, according to the latest leaks.

The triumphant return of the Crimson Oni is likely to be in the company of Itto's debuting sidekick, Kuki Shinobu.

Here is everything we know about Itto rerun and the banners for the upcoming Genshin Impact 2.7 update.

Release Date

Data miners have determined that Yelan and Kuki Shinobu are the new characters coming to Genshin Impact 2.7. However, they will not share the same banner.

Kuki Shinobu is a 4-star. Following Hoyoverse's tendency to pair characters based on Synergy or a close relation in the Storyline, it makes sense that Arataki Itto may soon be sharing a character banner with Kuki.

Based on this information, Yelan will be arriving in the first phase of Genshin Impact 2.7 on May 11, 2022.

Arataki Itto and Kuki Shinobu are likely to arrive on June 1, 2022, during the second phase, along with another rerun in the bunch.

Shikanoin Heizou

Another name that has been around for a couple of months is detective Heizou.

Heizou is a 4-star character with an Anemo or Electro vision that has a close relationship with the Yashiro Commissioner, Ayato. He is expected to be the last new character released from Inazuma.

If this is right, then Heizou is most likely to arrive on Genshin Impact 2.8 during the rerun of the Golden Apple Archipielago, in an update with only 5-star reruns.

Kazuha & Yoimiya

With Arataki Itto coming back in Genshin Impact 2.7, only one spot will be available for a rerun. So, then again, either Kazuha or Yoimiya will be pushed to the last update before releasing the new nation, Sumeru.

Version 2.8 is expected to feature only 5-star reruns in all the banners - so that could shake things up even further as Genshin Impact heats up!
