Ayato is presumably a 5-star Hydro character in development. He is Ayaka's brother and will be released no earlier than patch 2.5 (most likely later).

Recently, developers announced the first teaser for Ayato, where a mysterious voice can be heard at the end - many speculate that Ayato himself is the character.

Who is Ayato in Genshin Impact

Ayato is Ayaka's brother, who is involved in the affairs of the Kamisato clan. Ayato has been mentioned several times in dialogues, as he plays a significant role in the Inazuma storyline. If you missed these details during the game, we will remind you about them!

Mentions of Ayato in Genshin Impact dialogues:

• "I recently met Ayato Kamisato and was surprised by how young he looks."
• "Ayato Kamisato is not only a master swordsman but also proficient with a polearm. It is a great honor for me to continue serving him as a simple gatekeeper."
• "Ayato's elder brother prefers not to show himself too often and has completely immersed himself in state affairs, while the responsibility of maintaining the clan's image has been taken on by ... Ayaka."
• "The current head, Ayato Kamisato, often spends time away from home, engaged in various affairs, while Sangonomiya Kokomi Kamisato Ayaka often stays at headquarters."

Ayato's Voice Actor in Genshin Impact: Akira Ishida

As mentioned earlier, Ayato's voice can be heard in the recent teaser, voiced by the well-known voice actor, Akira Ishida. Here is a clip where you can hear his voice in the original Japanese voiceover:

It seems that we will see or hear Ayato in the Legend of Itto quest.

Ayato's Appearance in Genshin Impact: Leaks and Speculations

Currently, there is no image of Ayato's appearance in the game files. However, well-known insiders have shared information about possible details of Ayato's appearance.

According to Dumb Dumb, Ayato will resemble a character from the anime "The Dark Butler." It is unclear exactly which character.

Later, an anonymous insider through RKS stated that Ayato will have white hair and a light outfit resembling the attire of naval admirals from One Piece. This detailed description appears more fake. However, this is the second person claiming that Ayato will be in formal attire.

Ayato's Voice Actor also voices Otto in Honkai Impact

It remains interesting that Ayato's voice actor also voices Otto in Honkai. As we know, characters whose voice actors intersect in these games often resemble each other (for example, Raiden Mei and Raiden Ei, as well as Yaoyao Sakura and Yaoyao Miko). If we look at Otto, he does resemble the description from Dumb Dumb, who often provides accurate hints about appearances. This is merely speculation based on existing coincidences and old speculations about Ayato.

Leaked Skills of Ayato

1. It is obvious that Ayato is a Hydro character.
2. There are mentions of the "Kendo" stance in his E-skill.
3. This stance has 4 levels and increases attack.
4. Ayato seems to reduce the skill cooldown of E for squad members.
5.  His E-skill appears to throw something that "mocks" and increases the stance level by 2.

At this stage, we recommend treating this information skeptically!
