Genshin Impact 4.1 Banner leaks

We'll have to wait for the 4.1 livestream for official details on who the character event Banners will be, but there has been some leaks and official information that has provided details on the likely upcoming 4.1 Banners for Phase 1 and Phase 2.

It's very likely based on drip marketing on Genshin's official social media and a reliable leak from Mero that Neuvillette and Wriothesley are the new version 4.1 characters in Genshin Impact. Neuvillette should come first in Phase 1, based on the order of drip marketing.

Neuvillette is a Hydro catalyst user and Wriothesley is a Cryo catalyst user.

Mero is a very reliable leaker, but it's important to remember this isn't official information yet.

As for reruns, a recent leak from 'Uncle YC' via the X (formerly Twitter) account SaveYourPrimos has Hu Tao running alongside Neuvillette in 4.1 Phase 1, and Venti with Wriothesley in 4.1 Phase 2.

In summary, if the leaks turn out to be accurate, the 4.1 Banners in Genshin Impact are:

  • Neuvillette debut - Phase 1 (5-Star Hydro catalyst user)
  • Hu Tao rerun - Phase 1 (Pyro polearm user)
  • Wriothesley debut - Phase 2 (5-Star Cryo catalyst user)
  • Venti rerun - Phase 2 (5-Star Anemo archer)

As a reminder, none of this information is official, so we'll have to wait until the 4.1 livestream for solid details on who will be on the next Banners in Genshin Impact.
