Genshin Impact - Revealing 8 new characters that can be present since patch 1.2?

Information revealed on the Reddit forum recently from a gamer showed that someone had crawled and decoded files of the Beta Genshin Impact installer and the results were surprising. Up to 8 'strange' characters have models hidden inside the set with their names, weapons used and country of origin.

Specifically, photos of the character models provided by this gamer are as above. In order from left to right we will have the following characters:

1. Hutao: A native of Liyue belongs to the element of Fire and the weapon used is a spear . As the owner of a funeral home, but it is not clear if he shares the same house as Zhongli, he could be Zhongli's boss. She does not like QiQi for some reason, possibly because QiQi is a customer who never uses the service.
2. Mimi: A water-element wizard derived from Inazuma who uses magic books.
3. Yunjin: A Lava-elemental character of Liyue origin and uses a spear like Zhongli. Yunjin is said to work at the Heyu tea house, as well as a dancer, singer and tea-lighter.
4. Yaoyao: A wizard from Liyue who uses magic books. This 'loli' is the first known character of the element Wood (Dendro). Yaoyao was a sister student with Xiangling, they learned to cook from the same teacher, but Yaoyao later worked as a housekeeper for Qixing. She is very close to QiQi and was painted on a Mid-Autumn Festival poster with QiQi and Paimon.
5. Sayu: A character of the Phong element that uses Trong Sword and is originally from Inazuma.
6. Tohama: The Fire-type character that uses a spear is also from Inazuma.
7. Rosaria: An Ice-type character who uses a spear from Mondstatd.
8. Shenli: An Ice-type character who uses a Gravity Sword from Liyue

In addition, this person also 'dug' from the files of Genshin Impact another character named Kazuha originated from Inazuma. This character belongs to the Wind-type and uses a Single Sword. However, for some reason this character model image is not provided, but the author revealed that the character costume looks very samurai.

The informant also said that those are hidden in the Beta, probably a lot of tweaking has been made. So if one fine day these characters are officially announced, the shape and description might be different.

That's all we have been revealed through the player nicknamed P_alladium911 on the reddit forum. However, from the characters' backgrounds we can predict a few more things.

First of all, these characters will probably be announced in the near future, possibly patch 1.2 in December. The origins of these characters belong to three regions including Mondstatd, Liyue and Inazuma.

With Mondstatd and Liyue we can believe that these characters will be pushed out soon as these are the 2 already opened regions while the 3rd country is not on the schedule yet. On the other hand, characters like Hutao and Yunjin were mentioned in the lines of other characters at Liyue as a hint that they will appear in the near future.

The documentary section of Xiangling mentioned many characters in Liyue including Hutao, YaoYao, Diona .

Particularly, characters from Inazuma may be added gradually before the new land is added. We've seen some characters from Liyue come out before the player opening up the area as Xiangling is an example. This is always a move to 'lure' players before leading them into new areas.

Currently, Genshin Impact is still very hot, version 1.1 will be released tomorrow and while everyone is talking about the updated content, miHoYo also revealed a new character portrait of Dainsleif. We are drowning in new miHoYo news and these 8 new characters are something a little out of reach right now.

Well, let's just know that we have 8 new characters waiting somewhere from version 1.2 onwards, and when you come, slowly save the Gemstone.
