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 6.4

Patch 6.4: February 25th to April 7th

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.

How long does the prayer last?

Since the beginning of the game, the availability time of prayers has undergone some changes, and now it is safe to say that each of them lasts 3 weeks, that is, 21 days. In one version, there are usually two phases of calls, which can be rotated for 42 days in total.

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 upcoming new heroes. Data on long-range summons and reruns is less reliable (leaks/speculation/assumptions from insiders), so treat it with caution. The position of newcomers in prayers may shift by +- 1-2 patches. ❗

To stay informed about which satellites may soon return to the call, see the article about How many event legendary heroes have there been?.

On the official broadcast on 6.3 they showed silhouettes of future heroes of 6.X (Loena, Varki, Nicole, Linnea, Snegurochka?) and Sandrone's shadow. If the developers stick to their usual plan of releasing 17 companions over the course of the series, there are still two unknown characters remaining. One of them could be "the guy from Inazuma who knows Itto, Kazuha, and the Wanderer and wields a katana," according to information provided by 昔月人.

Banners in patch 6.5

From April 8 to May 19, 2026

According to UTeyvat, in Moon 6 They will release 5⭐ Linnea as a Geo healer for Lunar Crystallization, not tied to specific damage dealers.

First half 6.5

From April 8 (06:00 MSK) to April 28 (19:59 MSK)

According to an insider from Wonbung, Nefer, Lauma and Chasku (Anemo, shooting) — It's most likely the latter that's worth waiting for in this installment, but there's also a chance for Lauma. X1 and Seele shared Linnea's abilities, who, as the only new character Linnaea (5⭐ Geo, shooting) will be in the first phase:

• E-shka of several types, summons a creature and deals damage.
• The explosion of the elements heals.
• Passively converts Hydro + Geo damage into Moon Crystal reaction.
• Outside of combat, he can use a charged arrow to catch animals for the Kettle, break ore, and collect it.

Previously, hxg_diluc relayed a rumor from DK2 that it would become playable Snow-maiden - doll of the third descended. [The slang term for "Cryo" appears to be a reference to Sandrone.] Ultimately, it's either the little girl from the silhouette teaser, or Linnea herself; they simply misread the element and role.

Second half 6.5

From April 28 (20:00 Moscow time) to May 19 (16:59 Moscow time)

Seele relayed information from Wonbung that Chaska will be returning in this update, Nefer (Dendro, catalyst) и Laumu (Dendro, catalyst)If Skirk was paired with Escoffier in the previous version, Nefer and Lauma could be re-wounded here as well. However, given the Spiral Abyss buffs, Chaska might be used instead of the Stag Priestess.

Banners in patch 6.6

From May 20 to June 30, 2026

Insider UncleSukuna (领域重开, JUA2E52) сообщил, what in Moon 7 is planned 5⭐ Witch Nicole (Catalyst), whose model features the Pyro God's Eye. Previously, she was attributed with the Cryo and Geo elements.

hxg_diluc announced the release delay Deputy Captain Loen in this update. Insiders described him as an Electro damage dealer from Overload, which will be added to the standard in the next version, similar to Youkai MizukiBut his Cryo God's Eye was visible on the broadcast, meaning that information could have been false.

Given the trend of deities returning one after another, some of the Archons may be injured. Mavuika and Raiden will be absent for the longest time.

Banners in patch 6.7

From July 1 to August 11, 2026

Shiroha revealed that a release will happen in the later updates of 6.X 5⭐ SandroneShe was originally reported as a Geo Catalyst, but is now being referred to as a Cryo or Electro damage dealer, playing with the icy Snow Maiden as a support.

Approximately, in Moon 8 or it should happen in the next one Columbine rerun, since the first return of the deities is usually not delayed.

This version could have introduced witch Alice (5⭐ Pyro) as a powerful main damage dealer and synergizes well with Nicole from the Melting reaction (in the old version, Nicole was Cryo, but perhaps they still have synergy despite the same element). Information came from liquidation, however, the latest rumors refute this - the sorceress will not be released in 6.X, but in 7.X or even later.

Banners in patch 6.8

From August 12 to September 22, 2026

Traditionally, the final version of a patch series features a summer event. Usually, the heroes of the corresponding event appear in its prayers.

According to the latest data from Shiroha, in this version they will introduce an unknown heroine with the role of a guide in snowy — the region to which the 7.X updates should be dedicated.
