A Free Collei will be distributed in the Genshin Impact Sumeru update

free collei featured

The new Sumeru characters are the big talk right now as more info and footage on them has appeared as days pass. But what if we told you that we’ll be getting one of them by simply playing the game? A free Collei will be one of the many rewards of the new Genshin Impact expansion.

Aside from the Dendro Traveler, players arriving at Sumeru won’t have any character with the region’s element to solve its puzzles as Dendro doesn’t exist yet (or at least not for a few weeks). The previous versions of the game’s silent protagonist weren’t that good as playable units, and many would prefer not to use the new one.

While Dendro Traveler already seems more promising than its predecessors, Hoyoverse will give players another Dendro option in the form of Collei, the 4-star Dendro bow character that will be arriving at the update.

Free Collei obtained through an event

According to the reliable leaker Project Celestia, a free Collei is a reward for a new event in the Sumeru update. Different from old Genshin myths such as Ayaka being given for free at Adventure Rank 40, there are datamined and multiple sources confirming this, so it’s pretty much a confirmed thing.

BLANK also revealed the event’s in-game menu, confirming the Carving of Innocence event as having three parts, with the free Collei supposedly being available through the shop.

She’s a support Dendro character visually similar to Amber, but with a few more interesting tricks. She’s one of the best choices for a Dendro representative character, as she was already introduced through the Genshin manga previously and will probably be one of the first characters we’ll meet in the region.

But here lies the problem: She’ll be only available through an event, and that means that players who miss it won’t have any other Dendro option outside of the Traveler. This could be averted if the event is conceived in the likes of Barbara’s, being a permanent event so every new player can get the character. But from the looks of it, it’s just another regular version event.

As she’s a disciple of the 5-star Tighnari, she’ll probably be featured in the same banner as him. But even if you already planning on rolling for him, getting extra copies from a new character could never hurt.
