Genshin Impact 4.6 Banner leaks

We'll have to wait for the 4.6 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 4.6 Banners for Phase 1 and Phase 2.

Based on the always reliable drip marketing, it's all but confirmed that Arlecchino is one of the 4.6 Banners in Genshin Impact. Arlecchino is a Pyro character, and leaks by Unkle K, relayed on the Genshin_Impact_Leaks subreddit, point to her using a polearm.

As for reruns, multiple leaks, including the reliable hxg_diluc on X have Lyney running with Arlecchino in Phase 1 of version 4.6, and Baizhu and Wanderer (Scaramouche) returning in Phase 2.

If the leaks turn out to be true, then here's what the 4.6 Banner schedule will be:

As a reminder, none of this information is official, so we'll have to wait until the 4.6 livestream for solid details on who will be on the next Banners in Genshin Impact.
