Genshin Impact is once again bringing another big update with 2.8 on July 13, 2022, and with that comes a brand new character. But when is the Genshin Impact Heizou release date and when can you attempt to grab them in the game?
Well, this guide will cover all you need to know about Heizou and his introduction to the game, including a brief overview of what we know about them from their lore or previous mentions in Genshin Impact. As a four-star character, grabbing Heizou when he is added to the game will be the best chance you have as he will only return as a secondary character.
So, be sure to read on for the Genshin Impact Heizou release date and any extra information we have about the character’s introduction to the free-to-play RPG.

Genshin Impact’s Heizou release date is set for July 13, 2022. This is when we will see the Heizou banner release and Heizou will be available during the first half of the 2.8 update for the game.
Two separate events during the period will see Heizou become available. Heizou is a four-star character, only appearing as a secondary character in other banners.
Genshin Impact Heizou backstory
Heizou is affiliated with the Tenryou Commission and works as an Inazuman detective. As a detective, he has no interest in military or governmental affairs.
Descriptions from the game’s bulletin board near the Inazuma Adventurer Guild also suggest that Heizou is arrogant and acts disrespectfully, often engaging in violence.
