Parade of the Archons Genshin impact - an unofficial theory regarding the order in which the elemental gods appeared from regions of Teyvat в banners. The meaning of the event is that almost every year you can notice a consistent and continuous series of reruns of current Archons kingdoms one after another, among which a new deity is released in update X.2.
The origin of the term in the Russian-speaking community occurred around March 2023, and its active mention could only be found in October of the same year, although in fact the first Parade of Archons took place in 2022. In other fandoms, such a concept was not noticed, at least not so widely.
Mondstadt, along with Li Yue, appeared from the very start of the game, and in 2020 there were only three patches in which the gods of the Anemo and Geo regions first appeared. In the same series of updates, their reruns occurred, and the next Archon under the Electro element was released in version 2.1 in Inazume. Only starting in 2022, in patches 2.4-2.6, they followed each other Zhongli, Shogun Raiden и Ventiwhat can be considered first held Parade of Archons, but then the players did not pay attention to it.
The theory was reinforced in September 2022, when a certain chain with the order of the gods began to be traced and it happened second Parade of Archons. In updates 3.0-3.3, Zhongli, Venti appeared in the banners, and the release took place Nahida, followed by Shogun Raiden. After this, in March 2023, insiders began to hint at the similarity of the developers’ plans for Sumeru and the future Hydro region and spread rumors about upcoming reruns with 4.0 versions.
Between 2023 and 2024 upon release Fontaine happened third Parade of Archons: in update 4.0 they returned the Zhongli banner, in 4.1 they installed Venti, and in 4.2 they released Furina, which was followed in 4.3 by the return of Shogun Raiden, and in patch 4.4 Logically, Nahid is expected, which is confirmed by many insiders.
Due to the phenomenon, it is possible to partially predict the composition of banners for future updates:
- From 2024 to 2025 in fire patches Natlana should be expected in order in 5.0 Zhongli, in 5.1 Venti, in 5.2 release Pyro of Archon Murata (or the one who takes her place), in 5.3 Raiden, in 5.4 Nahid and in 5.5 Furin.
- From 2025 to 2026 along with the release Snowy a similar situation should occur with the appearance queens, the last seventh Archon under the element of Cryo, in update 6.2. In patch 6.6, the sequence will be closed by Pyro Archon.
- The next chapter after the seven regions will be Caenri'ah, but here it’s already more difficult to guess whether we should finally expect all the Archons in order or someone else will come out in 7.2.
However, speculation and rumors about the introduction of triple banners interfere with the guesswork, making it difficult to “read” the developers’ plans.

I just don’t agree that Furina is considered an Archon. I understand she was playing a role and all that. But she is a purely nominal Archon, she never decided anything, she had no power. Yes, the Gods still gave her the eyes of God for her diligence. But, IMHO, Neuvillette would look much more organic in this company.
Most likely it will be like this:
We have 9 patches per region (year) (x.0-x8), respectively, for each patch there is an Archon. So from x.0 to x.6 there will be Archons.
In x.7 and x.8 there will be summer reruns, BUT(!!!!) with some DISCLAIMER(!!!!!!!!):
Because in the same Kaenri there is no governor-archon, there are archons only in Teyvat and there are only 7 of them. Nothing is known about Celestia either. So what follows is ONLY MY FANTASY specifically (be skeptical), based on various THEORIES on the Internet. We know that from the first teaser with reviews of the Persians of the regions there was Dine, there is even a special card for him with a mention of the element, but we know nothing about it and how it works. Mikh * and thus CAN introduce additionally two new opposite elements of Celestia-Kaenria (prototype of pneumusia heh) and elevate them to the level of the main characters on an equal footing with the Archons, so that they fill out patches x.7 and x.8.
Just for fun: is the first piece of art official or someone’s personal creation?
