The Nod Krai region in Teyvat is filled with characters from all over the world, and Varka is one of the most talked about names. He is the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius and the Knight of Boreus. He has been away on a secret mission in Nod Krai for a very long time. Players have been waiting for him to become playable since the early days of the game, and it looks like the wait is almost over.
A new leak from HXG on Reddit claims that Varka will be released in Luna V, which is Genshin Impact version 6.4. Earlier leaks suggested he would arrive in Luna VI, and Luna V had no character leaks at all. It now looks like Hoyoverse may have removed the filler update and moved Varka’s release forward. If this is true, other Nod Krai characters such as Alice, Nicole, and Sandrone might also show up earlier than expected. It is a good time to start planning your gacha pulls.
The leak also mentions that Luna V will bring a new map called Dornman Port. Older leaks said Luna IV would add another map. If both leaks turn out real, players will get two new maps back to back. The Luna IV map might be a Liyue expansion for the Lantern Rite event, while the Luna V map looks like an expansion for Nod Krai.
