Genshin Impactfan Jamesdeus17 noticed that HoYoverse omitted any mention of a Vision from the official character description for Neuvillette. Although Neuvillette will be a playable Hydro character inGenshin ImpactVersion 4.1, HoYoverse is hiding the status of his Vision and Constellation with question marks, and players believe the new character may be able to manipulate elements like the Traveler. Moreover, some fans speculate that Neuvillette’s description as the “only male Melusine” may be a cover for his true identity in Fontaine.
Fans speculate that Neuvillette is Fontaine’s Hydro Dragon, a divine creature that’s similar toMondstadt’s Anemo Dragon Dvalin. HoYoverse may be hiding certain details about Neuvillette before revealing his true nature inGenshin ImpactVersion 4.1 according to Reddit user VersustheV, and other fans believe that Neuvillette may have a Gnosis just like Scaramouche did during the Sumeru storyline. Further, fans are speculating about the mention of Xbalanque from real-world Mayan myths in Neuvillette’s description since it may imply some ties to Natlan, the region where the Pyro Dragon resides.
Neuvillette is one of the most enigmatic characters inGenshin Impact’slore yet, so speculation will likely continue well into the release of Version 4.0. Since Neuvillette is a playable character, his dedicated story quest could potentially delve into the character’s backstory. It’s also possible forGenshin ImpactVersion 4.0’s main storyto address some questions about Neuvillette from fans before 4.1 launches.
Players may want to wait for more official details from HoYoverse since Version 4.1 is still more than a month away from launch, however.Genshin ImpactVersion 4.0 will launch first on August 16, and the following update is expected to release in late September. HoYoverse will likely share more information about Neuvillette before the launch of Version 4.1.
