Summary
AGenshin Impactfan has created an interesting chart that ranks the game’s playable characters by their age. Character releases are the main focus of each new update that arrives, which is understandable given that they are HoYoverse’s main source of revenue due to the game’s gacha-based system.
At the moment, there are over 80 characters inGenshin Impact, with Chiori being the most recent addition. The recent livestream event has confirmed that the upcoming update 4.6 will feature just one new character, the long-awaited Harbinger, Arlecchino, also known as The Knave.
A Reddit user named The_Henrai has created an impressive chart that reveals the approximate age of each character in the playable roster, according to the game’s official lore. The list shows that Zhongli is by far the oldest character in the game. This info was revealed by Ganyu, one of the half-adepti, who confirmed that the Geo Archon is over 6,000 years old. Zhongli, also known as Morax and Rex Lapis, was a god well before The Seven existed. He was also one of the first characters to arrive in the game, being released back in update 1.1 alongside Tartaglia. When it comes to his power on the field, Zhongli is still regarded as the overallbest Geo user inGenshin Impactthanks to a stacked and flexible kit.
Genshin Impact List Ranks Playable Characters by Age
The second-oldest character according to the list is therecently released Anemo user Xianyun. During multiple flashback cutscenes, she can be seen raising a young Ganyu, who took the third spot on the list. Xianyun was part of the game for a very long time, but she was known as the Cloud Retainer and only appeared in the form of a crane. The fact that Ganyu was old enough to witness the creation of Liyue Harbor means that she is at least 3,700 years old.
The chart suggests that the youngest character on the roster isGenshin Impact’s troublesome Pyro user Klee. She was sent to Mondstadt to stay with Albedo three years before the game’s timeline, which means that she’s at least three years old. However, the Redditor also noted that Klee is described as an unknown race “blessed with longevity,” which means that despite her appearance, she could still be older than many other characters.
According to the chart, the second youngest character isGenshin Impact’s Electro user Razor, who was three when he met Varka. Considering that Varka missed two Weinlesefest events, it means that Razor is at least four years old. While Xingqiu is placed in the same category as Razor, he’s probably a couple of years older since he spent four years studying the Guhua weapon arts.
