Nahida is none other than the Dendro Archon, aka Lesser God Kusanali, who presides over Sumeru, the fourth region of Teyvat. She is the youngest Archon among The Seven, and she ascended as the Dendro Archon after the Cataclysm that killed many gods, including the previous Dendro Archon, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, and an entire civilization, Khaenri'ah.
Genshin Impact Nahida: Element and Rarity
There is no official or leaked info on Nahida's rarity and element. Thankfully, we do not need it as every Archon is a five-star unit in Genshin Impact. and they represent their respective elements. For example, the Anemo Archon Venti is a five-star Anemo user. Going by that analogy, Nahida will be a five-star Dendro user.
- Cyno, the General Mahamatra, is an upcoming playable character that the community has been waiting for a very long time, ever since he made an appearance in Genshin Impact's official manga. You can check out our guide on Genshin Impact Cyno: Everything You Need to Know for more details.
Genshin Impact Nahida: Abilities
Similar to before, we have no official or leaked info on Nahida's abilities. We do have some leaked spoilers that suggest Nahida has the ability to take over people's consciousness for a short time. She used it to take over Sumeru's Katheryne for contacting the Traveler, leading to a series of events bringing the Traveler to Sumeru.

As per leaks, Nahida will release in Genshin Impact 3.1 update, the same as Cyno. Since he is also a five-star unit, it is difficult to predict Nahida or Cyno's banner schedule as any of them can get featured in the first or second half of the version 3.1 update. That aside, Genshin Impact 3.0 update is going live on August 24, 2022. It will be one week shorter than previous updates, which are usually 42 days long. Keeping that in mind, we can say Genshin Impact 3.1 update will go live in the first week of October 2022.

So when Genshin Impact 3.0 update releases, keep an eye out on the official Twitter handle of Genshin Impact, and you will get confirmation on whether the leaks are true.
