Xilonen is a 5-star Geo sword consumer working as a part of the primary section of banners within the 5.1 patch. She’s launched as a part of the brand new area, Natlan. Based on her official character description, she’s a blacksmith who’s “expert at discovering a very good steadiness between the heavy tasks of her job and dwelling properly.” At first, I believed this description referred to her roller-skating interest, however her new character trailer exhibits her partying as properly. In it, she performs from behind a DJ sales space match for a membership and raps as if it had been a music video.
Beth Curry voices Xilonen within the English-language model of Genshin Influence. The brief, staccato rhythm of the tune sort of jogs my memory of a rap verse from a Ok-pop tune or a observe a Vtuber may sing. Viewers within the remark part in contrast Xilonen’s efficiency to the League of Legends woman group, Ok/DA. One particular person replied to the official Genshin Influence TikTok and stated, “The Ok/DA vibe from this trailer alone simply made me fall in love together with her much more.”
Nonetheless, everybody wasn’t thrilled with the trailer and a few stated the idea was too trendy for a fantasy recreation like Genshin. “If she had been in [Honkai: Star Rail] or [Zenless Zone Zero] I wouldn’t have any complaints however I began taking part in genshin [sic] for its fantasy side & escapism so I actually dislike a few of the current designs,” consumer PlerryTheDingus stated on TikTok.
On the finish of the day, it’s only a trailer that provides gamers one other have a look at Xilonen earlier than she arrives to the sport as a playable character. The theme of the trailer doesn’t imply Traveler and Paimon can be hitting the membership in Natlan anytime quickly. However hey! Perhaps in spite of everything that grinding for Primogems it wouldn’t damage for the 2 to go dancing and chill somewhat bit.
