Genshin Impact’s world is named Teyvat, and it consists of an extremely vast terrain with an ever-growing roster of monsters. While new characters are the main event of each new update, adding new enemies can be just as exciting.
It seems like miHoYo could be introducing a couple of those in the upcoming updates. RecentGenshin Impactleaks have revealed a new type of enemy that will arrive in the upcoming update.

EachGenshin Impactupdate has its beta phase which usually includes most of the upcoming content. The beta usually begins once a new update drops meaning that theGenshin Impact2.5 betalikely arrived at the same time Version 2.4 joined the live servers. A recent post on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit has revealed another type of enemy that will arrive in the upcoming update 2.5.
The new enemy type will apparently have its own category similar to the Fatui or theTreasure Hoarderswho usually appear in a group of three or more. As per usual, the three units will have weapons applying three different elements - Pyro, Cryo, and Hydro. Players are absolutely in love with the new design claiming that it’s very reminiscent of the popularDark Soulsfranchise. The unique appearance makes many fans wonder why miHoYo hasn’t decided to implement a similar design approach to a playable character.
Adding new enemies is usually welcomed by the community, though most of the community agrees that thenew Rifthound enemiesare probably one of the worst additions miHoYo has ever made to the game. They are especially hard to beat with melee characters, and it should be noted that only bow and catalyst users are ranged. Their constant jumping makes it almost impossible for players to land their damage burst. On top of that, they have a massive health pool and are impossible to group up, even with strong supports.
A post by another leaker has revealed the model for a new Boss domain. Apparently, players will finally have the option to fight Raiden Shogun who has been one of the main characters through the whole Inazuma arc. The original leaker hasreceived a huge fineby miHoYo as one of his leaks contained his UID which allowed his account to be tracked down.
Genshin Impactis available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5, and a Nintendo Switch version is in development.
