The Ganyu banner rerun is one of the most highly-anticipated rereleases in Genshin Impact, so find out when you can unlock the Plenilune Gaze and which 4-star characters are included.

Ganyu is a 5-star bow character who dominates the battlefield with critical Cryo-based attacks, eliminating grouped enemies in a single hit. It’s because of this high damage output, that Ganyu continues to be one of the best characters in Genshin Impact.

As the emissary and secretary for the Liyue Qixing, Ganyu is known for her dedication to helping others. While the game’s Ganyu banner was initially released during the Version 1.2 update, many Genshin Impact players will have missed the opportunity to unlock her. 

Fortunately, travelers will once again get the chance to spend their Primogems on the Ganyu rerun banner. Here’s everything you need to know ahead of her 2.4 rerelease

Ganyu has proven incredibly popular amongst Genshin Impact players, particularly those that enjoy running Freeze or Melt comps. Things are also speculated to get even better for Ganyu, when Shenhe gets added to the game

Not only will this character help provide even more Cryo damage to the battlefield, but she will also help buff Ganyu’s damage even further. As a result, many players will be wanting to add the 5-star bow unit to their roster when the Ganyu rerun is live.

The Plenilune Gaze deals ranged and AoE Cryo damage, which enables her to melt through grouped enemies and constantly apply pressure to the game’s toughest bosses.

The Ganyu banner will return in the 2.4 update.

Ganyu’s banner rerun will appear in the 2.4 update alongside the Zhongli rerun banner on January 25, 2022. This means the 5-star Cryo user will release after both Shenhe and Yun Jin – the latest characters to join Genshin Impact’s roster.

The upcoming Ganyu rerun banner will mark the second time the 5-star Cryo character has been available in the game since her 1.2 debut, so if you have yet to unlock her, then you’ll want to begin saving your Primogems.
