Genshin Impact's 2.1 update will add four new playable characters to the existing roster. The characters we are talking about are the "Raiden Shogun" Baal, Kujou Sara, Kokomi Sangonomiya, and Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn.

Most of the players in the Genshin Impact community already know how to get Aloy, but for the other three, there has not been much information. Now, thanks to the Genshin Impact 2.1 Special Program we can finally confirm the banner schedule for these upcoming characters.
