Gaming is a 4-star character that will be playable following the release of version 4.4 of Genshin Impact. If you want to know details about his kit and the exact release date, here’s everything about Gaming in Genshin Impact. 

Previously dubbed Lion Dancy Boy by the Genshin Impact community, Gaming is one of the highly anticipated characters heading into version 4.4. It is time for Liyue’s Lantern Rite festival, and Gaming is deeply rooted in the culture as his design is based on the Chinese tradition of Lion Dance.

Genshin Impact Gaming Element and weapon

Gaming is confirmed to be a Pyro unit in Genshin Impact, and he’ll be a Claymore user. He was already confirmed to be a Pyro unit through drip marketing, and the recent Special Program revealed that he’ll use a Claymore. 

Genshin Impact Gaming kit 

Genshin Impact Gaming is said to be a Pyro DPS unit, and he can do plunging attacks. While the version 4.4 Special Program did provide a deep dive into his kit, we don’t have any official information on the finer details of the kit.

Leaks, however, have highlighted much about Gaming’s kit in Genshin Impact, so here’s everything about his kit based on all official and unofficial information:

Gaming Abilities
