Genshin Impact Leaks Hint at Pyro Archon's Design

Recent Genshin Impact leaks have given players a general idea of Pyro Archon's design. Genshin Impact gears up to expand Teyvat into Natlan, a brand-new region that takes inspiration from the pre-Hispanic Aztec civilization. It's believed to be the home of Murata, the Pyro Archon who chooses a humanoid form to roam with humans. Like other Archons in Genshin Impact, Murata possesses a divine power and is much older than the people she protects from threats.

Several leaks from HXG, Uncle Chiori, and Genshin_Leak have revealed details about Pyro Archon's design, confirming that she is inspired by Spanish culture. The character allegedly wears a dress that is indeed based on Traje de luces, a traditional costume matadors wear in the bullring. Besides, Genshin Impact's Pyro Archon Murata puts a bowtie on her neck instead of a necklace.

The chibi sticker design for Murata shows that she has short orange hair, red eyes, and fair skin. It's worth noting that this chibi sticker is a concept that may be overhauled before the release of the Pyro Archon.

As players journey through Genshin Impact's Natlan region, they will possibly meet Murata to progress in the Archon story. There is no release date for her yet; however, she is rumored to arrive in version 5.0 this summer. Based on leaks, it has already been known that Murata is a Polearm user like Zhongli and Raiden Shogun.
