Skirk is shown for a split second during the drone , giving a straightaway glimpse at the camera before vanish always . We had check of that individual being her , thanks to a later Twitter announcement , including her VA ’s name .

Genshin Impact Skirk 4.2

The most information we had on her until now was given by Childe ’s grapheme taradiddle , where he mentioned her training him during his sentence in the Abyss . And given how unassailable that man is in traditional knowledge , his master should be no pushover either .

free-base on Childe ’s late dialogue in the Fontaine Archon Quests , she may be somehow involved with the close at hand menace to the nation and the Modern Weekly Boss , the All - greedy Narwhal . More should be bring out as the update arrives , but we ’re only waiting for any updates now .

In a Hellenic Hoyoverse moment , fan have noted her similarities with Jingliu from Honkai : Star Rail , latterly have in the limited banner . But there ’s no confirmation whatsoever for Skirk to become playable herself yet . We know that ’s plausibly happening someday , but it might not be as soon as in the Fontaine patches , so it might be good to keep expectations broken for now .

The 4.2 bouncy stream also confirm the upcoming graphic symbol banner as turn back the Hydro Archon Furina and a rerun for Baizhu , with Cyno and Ayato returning briefly in the 2d one-half of the update .
