As Genshin Impact moves ever closer to the release of Snezhnaya in Version 7.0 later this Summer, more details about the local Archon, Tsaritsa, are starting to get leaked, revealing tons of information about a character whose alignment is still very ambiguous. While the Fatui are, indeed, a rival faction, it does not seem like all are necessarily evil, and there is some reason behind Tsaritsa’s plans to deal with the Heavenly Principles in Genshin Impact.

A lot of the bad reputation the Fatui have is due to the Harbingers, especially since the beginning of the game. Both Signora and Scaramouche were terrible people to encounter, and though Childe was a friendly face, he was then followed up by the foul Dottore. The Fatui Harbingers in Genshin Impact have a lot of influence over how the Tsaritsa is seen, but we may soon be getting to draw our own conclusions about her, individually, as she may be introduced as a major character in Version 7.X updates.

Tsaritsa's Role In Genshin Impact 7.3 Has Been Partially Leaked

Since the early days, there have been rumors that the Tsaritsa isn’t a villain in Genshin Impact, and it seems like a new leak all but confirms that. According to the leaker known as Little Puppet (via KaidoPklevel on Reddit), Tsaritsa will not be a main DPS in the action RPG. This hints at her as a playable character, which means she shouldn’t be a villain, per se. Anti-heroes like Childe, Wanderer, and Arlecchino have all been released as playable characters, but villains like Signora and Dottore haven’t.

This means she’ll likely be an ally, even if partially, since this justifies her traveling with the Traveler in a party. If she is not set to be a main DPS, the suspicion is that she’ll be a support for the main mechanics in Snezhnaya, which will be the Stellar Cryo reactions, initiated with the release of Sandrone in Genshin Impact 6.7. Tsaritsa will likely enhance these types of abilities significantly.

Genshin Impact Players Should Feel Hopeful For Tsarita

According to a leak by Full Stop Chan, which was shared by user astrelya on Reddit, Tsaritsa will be released as a playable character in Version 7.3. Because of her role in the story as the local Archon and the patch she is rumored to be released in, Tsaritsa is also likely going to be the strongest playable character during the upcoming year of content. This has proven to be true with the majority of the Archons for previous nations, as well as Columbina in Nod-Krai.

Apart from that, another leak shared by user KaidoPklevel on Reddit mentions that Tsaritsa will have blue hair with a slight silver tint. Moreover, the leak says that she will have a tall female body model, which is the one used for Raiden Shogun, for example. More details about Tsaritsa should be revealed, either officially or via leaks, pretty soon, as Genshin Impact gets ready for Snezhnaya.
