Gaming in Genshin Impact Version 4.4: New Playable Character Details
The latest update of Genshin Impact, Version 4.4, will introduce Gaming, a new playable character. Get all the details about Gaming’s kit, materials, talents, and constellations in this article.
Gaming will join the ever-growing roster of playable characters in Genshin Impact’s upcoming Version 4.4 update. Known as the “Leonine Vanguard,” Gaming is a 4-star Pyro Claymore character.
Before his official reveal, unofficial information gave him nicknames like “Lion Dance Boy” or “Lion Boy.” However, his actual name is Ga Ming, which caused confusion as it was omitted from his English name.
Gaming’s constellation, Leo Expergiscens or “Awakening Lion,” hints at his ferocity in battle. His birthday is on December 22.
One of Gaming’s notable features is his Bonus ATK% Ascension Stat, which can reach up to 24% at maximum Ascension.
Gaming’s Voice Actors and Their Previous Roles
Gaming’s English voice actor is Caleb Yen, known for his role as Male Trailblazer/Caelus in Honkai: Star Rail. The Japanese voiceover for Gaming is provided by Shohei Komatsu, whose notable roles include Land from Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End.
Materials and Talents Required for Gaming’s Ascension
To fully level Gaming up to level 90, players will need various materials, including Starconch, Agnidus Agate items, slime drops, Emperor of Fire and Iron drops, Mora, and Hero’s Wit. These materials are essential to strengthen Gaming’s abilities and unlock his full potential.
As for Gaming’s talent upgrades, players will need Slime drops, Teachings of Prosperity, Guide to Prosperity, Philosophies of Prosperity, All-Devouring Narwhal Weekly Boss Drops, Crown of Insight, and Mora.
The Exciting Gaming Kit and Skills
Gaming’s normal attack, Stellar Rend, allows him to perform up to four consecutive strikes. His charged attack drains stamina to unleash continuous spinning attacks against nearby opponents, ending with a powerful slash. Gaming’s plunging attack strikes opponents on the way down, dealing Area of Effect (AoE) damage.
Bestial Ascent is Gaming’s elemental skill, which enables him to pounce forward using the Wushou arts. After hitting, Gaming leaps high into the air and performs a powerful plunging attack called Charmed Cloudstrider. This attack converts damage into Pyro damage, but it consumes a fixed amount of HP, ensuring Gaming’s HP never goes below 10%.
Gaming’s ultimate skill, Suanni’s Gilded Dance, activates his Wushou Stance, applying Pyro to him and summoning his companion, the Suanni Man Chai. This powerful combination deals AoE Pyro damage and increases Gaming’s resistance to interruption. Moreover, whenever Gaming lands attacks or completes certain moves with over 50% HP, the Suanni Man Chai joins him again, creating synergistic and devastating moves.
Passive Skills and Gaming’s Constellations
Gaming’s passive skills include The Striding Beast, which increases movement SPD during the daytime; Dance of Amity, which allows Gaming to regain HP after using Plunging Attack: Charmed Cloudstrider; and Air of Prosperity, a skill that provides incoming healing bonus and increased damage for Plunging Attack: Charmed Cloudstrider when Gaming has higher HP.
Gaming’s constellations enhance his abilities further. The constellations include Bringer of Blessing, which heals Gaming when his companion Suanni Man Chai returns; Plum Blossoms Underfoot, which increases Gaming’s ATK when healing exceeds maximum capacity; Awakening Spirit, which upgrades the level of Bestial Ascent; Soar Across Mountains, which restores energy to Gaming when Plunging Attack: Charmed Cloudstrider hits opponents; Demon-Daunting Roar, which boosts the level of Suanni’s Gilded Dance; and To Tame All Beasts, which amplifies the critical rate, critical damage, and attack radius of Bestial Ascent’s Plunging Attack: Charmed Cloudstrider.
A Glimpse into Gaming’s Persona
Gaming is known for his remarkable Wushou Dance, often captivating audiences with his emotional performances. However, despite the applause he receives, he remains humble, stating that the audience’s attention is enough recognition for him. As a guard, Gaming is assigned to escort goods in Liyue Harbor, but his dream of making the Wushou Dance a regular occurrence faces obstacles.
While Gaming dedicates himself to his work and future goals, he finds solace in the company of friends at Xinyue Kiosk, enjoying dim sum and leisurely conversations.
Gaming’s Arrival and Release Date
Gaming will make his appearance as a playable character in Genshin Impact Version 4.4, set to go live on January 31, 2024.
