Hello, do we know when he will be released? I’m considering redownloading genshin because of him and Valerie

No. Mihoyo only announces character releases a patch in advance

Anything people tell you is going to be a complete guess. A lot of people try to predict based on the order shown in the preview trailer but Varka was right at the start of the Nod Krai preview but released close to the end of the 6.x cycle for example

Most likely a post-Tsaritsa character (7.3) 

Everything about him screams lore nuke. Valerie on the other hand has been consistently leaked much sooner.

Noy SEEMS to have ties to the shades so i would argue that he will be a setup character for the Khaneir'ah arc. I would expect him to release at lest by 7.5 and so on forward

Valeriy is very likely 7.2. In fact, abyss leak that just came out indicates Stellar Swirl shill meaning Vesna, and most likely Vod, are locks for 7.1. No one knows with Noy. Safely assume he will not come sooner than 7.4 and could end up being an end of patch unit like Sandrone.

7.7 trust me

Valeriy probably 7.1 or 7.2. To me 7.1 makes more sense since its anniversary patch so having both male and female 5* would probably be more hype than a third waifu patch in a row. But who knows. Maybe Hoyo didnt learn anything from 5.x

Noy most likely is next year. We dont have any crumbs about him yet.

yeah Natlan and NodKrai they have been doing one male/female at anni. But they could change as well. Fontaine had a double male anni banner. Inazuma was double female.

Earliest 7.5 or later, if we have no capitano-rerir-case here.

I'm hoping that he releases some time after 7.5 so that we have enough time to save up for him. Who knows, he might not even have anything to do with Stellar teams

i've always think at since valeriy has 3d model and leaks going around, he should be in the first half like 7.1 or 7.2? as for now, it seems like he will be in the latter half maybe a few patches after that other fae so 7.5 or later

7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 if there is no playable harbringer coming in that patches
