The release of Genshin Impact 5.7 is expected on June 18. miHoYo (HoYoverse) lets players preload the update in advance, and a certain recording recently went viral in the community.
Dataminers reportedly managed to extract a fragment of the new English voiceover for Paimon, the Traveler’s companion, from the files.
Earlier, Corina Boettger stated that they would no longer voice Paimon until miHoYo reaches an agreement with SAG-AFTRA. Their behavior on social media had been annoying Genshin Impact fans.
A comparison of the alleged new voice for Paimon with the old version can be found here.
Some fans are already starting to celebrate the recast of Paimon’s voice actor: https://youtu.be/dvFZI2a_zbQ
