Genshin Impact: Banner Schedule 2026

The banners are presented with prayers in Genshin Impact, from which you have a certain chance of dropping a character or weapon. They are implemented through gacha mechanics, so you have a certain chance of dropping an event or standard hero/weapon of legendary or epic rarity.

This article presents a schedule of banner releases, both officially announced and compiled from leaks from reliable insiders. This information will help you find out which characters will be in your prayers for at least the next few months. This article is regularly updated and supplemented, so bookmark this article to stay up-to-date on the release/rerun of your desired character and to earn Primogems.

Banners in Genshin Impact 7.0

Patch 7.0: August 12th to September 22nd

A banner is basically a sign with characters or weapons that can be obtained with an increased chance when saying a prayer. There are two main types:

• permanent;
• temporary.

Constant are available to absolutely all players from the start of their journey through Teyvat. In order to get acquainted with the prayer system, all players get the opportunity to make 10 spins to open their first characters or another useful drop. This is the basis of a whole reroll system, allowing you to create the best starter account.

Temporary change twice per patch. They are associated with reruns, or are released together with the release of the next hero. The choice is yours - save up source stones until the moment your favorite characters are summoned, or spend spins regularly, collecting an extensive collection of heroes. A special temporary banner is Chronicled Wishes. She appears periodically.

To avoid waiting too long for a character to be re-ran, you can donate at a discount to donatov.net by UID and knock out the hero now.

Current temporary banners in Genshin Impact

В the 7.0 update released 5⭐ Odette и 4⭐ Alyosha. Ice Traveler will become available as the story progresses.

Perhaps in the future the developers will change the set of permanent prayers, but for now there are only two. To open them you need an item "Fateful Encounters".

The Beginner's Prayer allows you to perform 20 prayers at a discount (10 spins for the price of 8), and also receive a guaranteed 4⭐ Noelle in the first set.

The only downside is that after the first set you'll need to save up 10 Fateful Encounters (8 at a discount) to unlock the second one, as single prayers are disabled here.

Wanderlust — a standard prayer that can drop basic characters and weapons. Heroes include all four-star heroes (except those released in the current patch) and all standard legendaries.

Which banner is next in Genshin Impact

The following sections of this article contain a collection of current dataminer leaks featuring future banners. While they may vary, and developers may occasionally make last-minute adjustments, many of the leaks are generally confirmed.

❗ The most reliable information concerns the release of the following heroes. Information on long-range summons and reruns is always questionable (leaks/speculation/assumptions from insiders), so treat it with caution and wait for official information from the developers' streams. The status of newcomers in prayers may shift by +- 1-2 patches. ❗

To stay informed about who might be returning to the draft soon, see the article about How many event legendary heroes have there been?👗 See all event and standard Odes of the Astral Reach in a special article.

Banners in patch 7.1

From September 23 to November 3

Two heroines from the family have been officially announced elves:

• 5⭐ Spring (Anemo, one-handed) — Vila, the leader of the Druzhina army and the main damage dealer from Star Scattering.
• 5⭐ Vodyanitsa (Hydro, catalyst) — a water spirit, an opera singer, and a support character for Star Scattering, which is also played in Freeze-based squads.

First half 7.1

From September 23 (06:00 Moscow time) to October 14 (19:59 Moscow time)

5⭐ Spring (Anemo, one-handed) will be released at the very beginning the 7.1 update together with 5⭐ Waterworm (Hydro, catalyst).

From the weapons you can take the signature sword of Spring Beyond the Cocoon and the catalyst of Vodyanitsa "Ode to the Whirlpool".

Second half 7.1

From October 14 (20:00 Moscow time) to November 3 (16:59 Moscow time)

Main-DD will be re-arranged at the same time Skirk (Cryo, one-handed) and her signature support healer Escoffier (Cryo, pole)Their signature weapon, the Skirk sword, will be temporarily returned. Azurelight and Escoffier's spear "Symphonist of Aromas".

Free lego of your choice

Dates: September 23 to November 3

Besides distribution standard legendary heroby sixth anniversary the developers will release a selector with one event 5⭐ character to choose from. To get it, you just need to go through a new one Snowy's plot (the fourth chapter of the seventh volume, “Requiem of the Afterlife”):

• Tartaglia (Hydro, Rifle);
• Nilu (Hydro, one-handed);
• Baizhu (Dendro, catalyst);
• Tiori (Geo, one-handed);
• Clorinda (Electro, one-handed);
• Varesa (Electro, catalyst).

Banners in patch 7.2

From November 4 to December 15

Many insiders are talking about the addition of two characters (information about their skills came from Kuishang and Qingfeng):

• 5⭐ Mitya (Electro, catalyst) — a damage dealer from the Star Conductor. Played from the "pocket" if Valery is on the field or if you have C2 and Tsarina in your party. Otherwise, it works better as a main damage dealer.
• 4⭐ Valery (Electro, one-handed) — a shielder and buffer. Mitya takes his place on the field in the team, replacing Tsarina.

First half 7.2

Mitya should be the only new legendary character in the 7.2 update, so he'll be included in the first part along with 4⭐ Valery. Theoretically, they'll be reviving the old hero. If WWWhatever isn't mistaken about Emperor of fire and iron в Stygian Onslaught, then it will be a Hydro character: Mualani, Furina or Neuvillette.

Second half 7.2

According to Qingfeng, there is a high chance of getting 5⭐ back. Zi Bai (Geo, one-handed) и Linnaeus (Geo, shooting)Main DPS and their signature supports have been re-wounded together lately, so this seems logical. You'll probably be able to take 4⭐ with them. IllugaThe assumption is confirmed by a rumor from WWWhatever about the appearance Gleaming Moon Gecko in Dark Onslaught.

Banners in patch 7.3

From December 16, 2026 to January 26, 2027

According to Full Stop Chan and other insiders, the following are planned:

• 5⭐ Queen Anastasia (Cryo, rifle)All recent Archons have been released in X.3 versions, so its release is almost guaranteed to happen at the start of the update.
• 5⭐ Danika (Electro, two-handed) — a maid assassin, support for the Star Guide and support for Sandrone.

Due to the tendency to re-wound the damage dealer along with his support, it is theorized that Varka and Nicole may return in this update or the next ones.

Of the Archons, Nahida, Furina, and Venti will be the ones that won't be re-wounded the longest by this point—each of them has roughly the same chance of returning.

Banners in patch 7.4

From January 27 to March 9, 2027

The Chinese New Year falls at the beginning of February, which means that traditionally it will take place Lantern RiteSo far, the most reliable inside information appears to be from Hongyu and Migvvv regarding:

• 5⭐ Pyro archer with a tall female model (not Madame Pin).
• 4⭐ Dendro a young man associated with calligraphy.

If there's no desk mate I didn't lie, they'll be damaged in the first phase Geo Archon Zhongli and will conduct prayer of the chronicles (either regional or with enhanced characters).

Banners in patch 7.5

According to WWWhatever, in this or the next update vampire Noah will become a 5⭐ Dendro support for the new Stimulation reactions (Growth and Exacerbation in combination with Electro).

Banners in patches 7.6-7.8

There are several insider tips about the second half of the 7.X versions:

• According to Qingfeng, Captain Dainsleif will be released in updates 7.5-7.6 and plays from the same archetype as Noah (therefore, he can be an Electro damage dealer).
• Kuishang believes that reciter Enjo will become a playable Pyro support under Stimulation, synergizing with Noah. But DK2 only knows about white-haired man, the design of which contains elements artifact set "Lavawalker", associated with Enjo, so it might not be him.
• As hxg_diluc said, only one 5⭐ girl is expected.

If the developers release 17 heroes again in the 7.X patch series, then in addition to the mentioned characters there will be 1 more unknown (Sakiko's team found that both Travelers from the Shadow Sphere count as 2 heroes, as it was last year with Mannequins).

"Business" Pantalone, "Doctors" Dottore, the witch Alice And don't expect any others in 7.X (sources: TeamRhinedottir, hxg_diluc). If they do come out, it will be in 8.X or later.
