Here’s everything we know so far about Genshin Impact’s Odette:
When is the Genshin Impact Odette release date?
Odette joins the Genshin Impact playable roster on August 12, 2026. She appears in the phase one banner alongside the new four-star character, Genshin Impact’s Alyosha, and a rerun of Genshin Impact’s Arlecchino.
Who is Odette?
Odette is a five-star cryo sword-wielder. She’s the Prima Ballerina of the Korolevskiy Troupe, presenting a frosty yet elegant persona on stage. Odette is also a member of the Fatui and is vying for the Harbinger seat of her former mentor, Genshin Impact’s La Signora.
Odette’s ballet performances are revered across Snezhnaya, often tempting those who would usually like to stay warm and toasty inside to travel across the nation’s harsh, icy environment just to catch her live. Her name is likely a reference to the famous Swan Lake ballet, in which the lead also plays Odile, the antagonist. This hints at Odette’s double life between the ballet and the Fatui.
