The Tsaritsa’s shadow has loomed over Genshin Impact since the game’s release in 2020. Yet players have never seen hide nor hair of the mysterious figure pulling strings across every major update to Hoyoverse’s open-world gacha RPG. Until today.
A new trailer for Genshin Impact version 7.0 that released this morning, June 26, finally gives players a look at Genshin Impact‘s greatest antagonist. Visually, the Tsaritsa (full name: Anastasya Feodorovna Snezhnaya), is a tall, slender woman with incredibly pale skin, silver white hair, ice blue bordering on white eyes, and pointed ears. The outfit she wears in the trailer also shows light blue and silver tones. As the Cryo Archon, the Tsaritsa controls ice powers, so her design evokes snow and chill. She will be voiced in English by Lara Korba, who plays Irrheia in the gacha title Path to Nowhere.
The excitement over the Tsaritsa’s reveal stems from her role in the story of Genshin Impact so far. While this trailer marks her first official appearance, characters in the game have been speaking of her with equal fear and admiration for years. The central conflict of Genshin Impact revolves around her machinations to collect powerful items called Gnoses with the ultimate goal of using their combined power to overthrow the creators of Teyvat (the game’s world).
