Genshin Impact: Instructions to get all characters for free

However, the Genshin Impact player starts the game with only the Traveler as the protagonist. Besides, people can also get three free 4-star characters just by completing the starting missions. Lisa, Amber, Kaeya are the first characters players receive, then Barbara and Xiangling are also given away for free.

So, before preparing to invest Primogem in many expensive characters, here is how to get all the characters in Genshin Impact for free.

Traveler

At the beginning of Genshin Impact, the player will be given a choice between a male or female twin. This is The Traveler, and they're everyone's protagonist. But that doesn't mean gamers need to bring them with them to their party all the time. If they need to appear for a cutscene or conversation, they will appear even if they are in the player's party.

The Traveler starts out as an Anemo character, but as you explore a little more, you'll unlock a Geo version of the character. People can switch between the two by visiting a statue. While The Traveler is technically a 5-star character, his skills and strength are just about average.

Amber

Following the Traveler, Amber was the first playable character added to the party. Everyone just had to follow Paimon's instructions and get the Outrider of the Knights of Favonius on their way to Mondstadt.

Amber can be useful early in the game as she can damage opponents with Pyro skills and solve puzzles involving torches. However, players should only focus on building Amber if they really like her because this character is considered the lowest tier in Genshin Impact's character level.

Kaeya

Next up in Genshin Impact's free cast of characters is Kaeya. Upon reaching Mondstadt, everyone will be able to participate in many quests in the city. Crash Course is among those quests, and Kaeya is a reward for completing them.

During this quest, Aether/Lumine will meet Kaeya Alberich at a temple. Players will receive a tutorial on Cavalry Captain and his Cryo Vision. He's available as a trial in the domain for Crash Course and Kaeya will be permanently on the character roster once the domain is removed.

Lisa

In the prologue, Lisa will be the last free character for beginners. People can get librarians in the same way as Kaeya. Lisa will appear in another quest called Sparks between the Pages at the Temple of the Lion.

Players can use Lisa as a test character in this domain. Once she has managed to remove the domain, she will also be added to the list and stage one of the Prologue is also complete.

Barbara

At Adventure Rank 18, those who can complete the quest A Long Shot will receive Barbara without paying a dime. This Archon quest is among the many available in the storyline. To get her, the player must defeat Dvalin and save Mondstadt from the fearsome dragon.

Xiangling

Xiangling is in fact the best character on Genshin Impact's list of free characters when it comes to gameplay. After reaching Adventure Rank 20, players will have access to the People's Choice event. The requirement to obtain the character Xiangling is to complete Level 3, Room 3 of the Spiral Abyss.

By completing this challenge, everyone will be rewarded with Xiangling - a bubbly chef and possibly the great side DPS fighter Pyro in the battle group.

Hello

Aloy is a Cryo character who wields a bow and is the first cooperative character to be added to Genshin Impact. She has a constellation to boost her stats, but since there's no multiple it stays locked. To upgrade Aloy, people need items from Inazuma, meaning the player's Adventurer Rank must be level 30 or higher. She requires Crystalline Blooms, Crystal Marrow, and Spectral Husks to ascend.

If you play Genshin Impact on PC or mobile, you can unlock Aloy immediately by confirming her from the mailbox. Players need to log in before the 2.3 update maintenance on November 24, 2021 to receive Aloy, according to patch 2.1 notes. She will then be in the mailbox for a year before it expires, so make sure to collect Aloy before that time.

If playing on PS4 or PS5, the time to get Aloy has passed when update 2.2 is released. PlayStation players need to sign in in patch 2.1 to get her into their mailboxes.

If she's logged in during this time period but hasn't received Aloy, she's most likely in the mailbox, so be sure to check it. It is currently unknown if Aloy will be made available to PlayStation users again.

The following list includes the names of characters that the player can use for a limited time. All of these characters are in the 4-star group and can be obtained after completing some special missions or participating in seasonal activities.

1. Xinyan
2. Beidou
3. Ningguang
4. Fischl
5. Chongyun
6. Diona

Whether these characters will reappear in other events is still a mystery. Many gamers who love these characters are always looking forward to the developer miHoYo to bring them back to Genshin Impact in the future.
