Genshin Impact 6.4 Update Leaks Hint at Capitano’s Return
New leaks from the game’s beta test suggest a brief reappearance for a major lore character in the next update. Genshin Impact 6.4 leaks indicate that the Fatui Harbinger Capitano will feature in a short cutscene during a side quest focused on Varka. This appearance would last roughly three minutes according to the source. However, the leak clarifies that this does not signal his imminent release as a playable character.
A Brief Appearance in a Varka-Centric Quest
The upcoming side quest will likely involve a flashback to a past encounter between the two powerful figures. Speculation suggests this meeting could have occurred in Natlan or Snezhnaya. The community is now debating whether the scene will showcase a confrontation or simply a tense conversation.
This limited role aligns with Capitano’s established fate in the game’s current narrative. Therefore, his return primarily serves to expand lore rather than alter his status. The development still excites fans eager for any new details about the mysterious Harbinger.
Playable Status Remains Highly Unlikely
HoYoverse has never made a deceased character playable in Genshin Impact. The studio’s design philosophy reserves the playable roster for characters who can practically accompany the Traveler. As a result, Capitano’s current story position makes him an improbable candidate for a future banner.
Nevertheless, some fans maintain hope that unique spiritual mechanics in Natlan could facilitate his return. For now, the leak simply promises a small but meaningful cameo that will enrich the world’s backstory in the next update.
