The name Kamisato Ayato has been rumored in multiple Genshin Impact rumors over the last couple of updates, especially since he was revealed to be Ayaka's brother. Multiple in-game NPCs have stated that he's a skilled sword and polearm fighter.

While version 2.5 has not arrived yet, new leaks have already revealed information about it. Further, the official Genshin Impact Social media accounts have already confirmed Yae Miko as the new playable character. Even though both of these characters have been rumored to appear on the same update, it seems like players will have to wait for a little longer to pull for Ayato.

A recent leak on the popular Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit has apparently revealed more information about one of the most anticipated characters, Kamisato Ayato. Rumors claim that Ayato might have a resemblance to Kevin from the game Honkai Impact 3rd. According to Honkai's lore, Kevin Kaslana was one of the greatest human warriors that lived 50,000 years ago in the pre-civilization era.

Previous leaks and rumors have revealed some information about the upcoming Genshin Impact character Kamisato Ayato. This particular leak was originally taken from the website Bilibili before it was taken down by the mods. The picture apparently reveals more information about Ayato's kit:

  • Elemental Skill - Shuumatsu Art: This skill allows Ayato to dash sideways while casting forward an empty shell of himself that taunts enemies.
  • Elemental Burst - Kamisato Art: Ayato thrusts forward firing a torrent of water that deals Hydro damage and lowers Hydro resistance. This skill resets the Elemental Skill cooldown.
  • Normal Attack: N2 and N4 stack up "Posture" and Charged Attacks can consume these stacks turning them into "Ichimonji Slashes" which deal increased Hydro damage.

The only official information about Ayato is that he is the head of the Kamisato clan. Even though the majority of the Genshin Impact community thought that it was Ayaka who was pulling the strings in the Kamisato clan, the recent story quests have revealed that it's actually Ayato who works in the background and assumes the leadership tasks for the clan to remain powerful. Previous leaks have been hinting that Ayato will be a Hydro character, meaning that he could have great synergy with his sister Ayaka who has a unique playstyle. He is also expected to be a sword user, which would make him the second Hydro sword character after Xingqiu.

Genshin Impact is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices. A Switch version is currently in development.
