Yae Miko teased as an upcoming Genshin Impact character
Mihoyo took to Twitter to share a new image of a familiar face. The company teased a potential Yae Miko The Genshin effect launch. It also teases that her character title will be Astute Am Entertainment.
This is the official reveal. It confirmed her role as the head of both Grand Narukami Shrine and Inazuma City’s Yae Publishing House.

This is important because Mihoyo often teases playable character announcements this way. It previously did this with Thomas, Shenhe and Yun Jin. Since the developer is teasing her now, it could mean that she will be a new character introduced in the 2.5 update in February 2022.
While the announcement doesn’t reveal details about her weapon, we already know her element. Yae Miko appears in both The Genshin effect Chapter 2 Archon Quest and in Gorou’s hangout. You can see her wearing the Electro Vision as an earring.
The Genshin effect available for PS4, PS5, PC and mobile devices. It will also come to the Nintendo Switch. Update 2.4 will be available on January 5, 2022.
