Genshin Impact’s 2.4 version update earlier this week brought with it a slew of new quests and the newest part of Inazuma, the subterranean region of Enkanomiya lying beneath the surface of Watatsumi Island. Alongside the new content, the game’s Liyue-centric update brought with it two new characters,the adeptus disciple Shenheand the traditional opera singer Yun Jin. The breakout hit RPG has been releasing numerous trailers to get fans excited for its newest five-star character over the last week and, now, the game’s newest four-star character received a gameplay trailer of her own.
Yun Jin had previously been revealed as one of the newest characters joiningGenshin Impactduring last month’s Game Awards 2021 event, where she was briefly teased at the end of a trailer for the massively popular adventure RPG. The character is a well-renowned opera singer within Liyue and plays a major role in the progression of the 2.4 update’s new main quest, joining the Traveler and Shenhe as they aid Ningguang in rebuilding the Jade Chamber which had been previously destroyed. Now, a new trailer fully details how Yun Jin plays inGenshin Impact’s newest version.

The newest video inGenshin Impact’s “Collected Miscellany” series of trailers gives players a fullrundown of Yun Jin’s kit. Yun Jin’s adventure passive gives her the chance of receiving double rewards for cooking stamina-related dishes while her abilities deal Geo damage and buff her allies based on Yun Jin’s own defensive stats. The trailer emphasizes Yun Jin’s playstyle as being reactive and careful, using her Elemental Skill to defend and counter enemy attacks, before using her Elemental Burst to go on the offensive.
The Collected Miscellany trailer blends an in-depth look at Yun Jin’s gameplay with revealing several elements of her personality and backstory, similar toGenshin’s typical stylized trailers for new characters. The trailer gives aninsight into Yun Jin’s character, sprinkling in tidbits of the character’s backstory and personality. Yun Jin takes many elements of the stories she tells through her opera and performances from the stories told by people within Liyue, an aspect that comes into play with her role in the newest main story quest featured inGenshin’s 2.4 update.
Yun Jin is the most recent member ofGenshin’s rapidly growing cast with the game typically adding two to three characters with each new update. MiHoYo recently confirmed thehighly-anticipated release of Inazuma’s Yae Mikoin the near future, likely arriving inGenshin Impact’s next update, and fan speculation has been rampant about Kamisato Ayato as one of the game’s next characters. With part of the 2.4 update giving fans the opportunity to claim a four-star character from Liyue for free, Yun Jin will likely be the selection of many players looking to try out the new character.
Genshin Impactis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices. A Switch version is in development.
