HoYoverse has already revealed the upcoming new characters in version 4.0. Luckily, there are leaks that show the other 5-star characters that are speculated to get a rerun in the first Fontaine patch. Here is the expected v4.0 banner schedule:
Phase I (August 16 – September 6)
- Lyney (5-star Pyro)
- Yelan (5-star Hydro)
Phase II (September 6 – September 27)
- Tartarglia (5-star Hydro)
- Zhongli (5-star Geo)
Based on leaks, it seems that Lyney will debut in the first phase of version 4.0. At the same time, it is speculated that Yelan will get another rerun alongside the new Pyro unit. Meanwhile, the second phase will likely feature the fourth rerun banners for both Zhongli and Tartaglia.
In addition, there are rumors that every player at Adventure Rank 25 and above will receive a free copy of Lynette. Thus, if the information is true, it is safe to assume that she will be released in the first phase. Meanwhile, there is no information about Freminet’s potential release date, so travelers will have to wait a little longer for more details.
