Straight out of the Final Fantasy franchise is Mika. No, he’s not actually from Final Fantasy, but his resemblance to the classic Chocobo is uncanny, with his bird-like hairdo and scarlet streaks. He’ll join the Genshin Impact roster in Version 3.5 as the next 4-star Cryo character, and is designed to provide some unique buffs for your team as a specialized support character.

Mika Passive Skills in Genshin Impact
- Demarcation: Displays the location of nearby resources unique to Mondstadt on the mini-map.

- When a Rimestar Shard hits an opponent, it will generate 1 Detector stack. Each Rimestar Shard can trigger the effect 1 time.
