Building hype around a character release isn’t new or special in Genshin ImpactAlthough Scaramouche is not revealed in previous characters’ reveal, it has created a fervent fanfare. This is partly due to Scaramouche’s complicated backstory as well as his intricate character lore. However, a large part of the excitement around his release comes from the fact that fans weren’t sure he would actually come to the game as a playable character.

Prior to our time in Sumeru, we didn’t see Scaramouche for several patches, and he wasn’t released throughout the updates in Inazuma. Hoyoverse rekindled fans’ hopes when he became a part of the mainline story in the current Sumeru region, but even then, his future in the game wasn’t guaranteed. He will face the Traveler in the coming patch as a boss. Fans worried that he would be killed. Now, fans can enjoy playing with him.
