The Xiao banner will see a rerun as a part of the Character Event Wish-2 system. The new character, Shenhe, will also have her own banner happening simultaneously, and they will feature the same 4-Star character drop rate boost.

Happy one-year anniversary to this account. Thank you for sticking around, and I'm hoping you enjoy the posts. The growth on this account has been immense, and I'm happy to be experiencing it with you all!

Let's hope for yet another year! 🥳🎉 pic.twitter.com/hWSMEAO3UK

According to a recent Tweet by Lumie, the 4-Star characters on the Xiao and Shenhe banners with a drop rate boost will be Ningguang and Chongyun.

However, these leaks have been officially confirmed by miHoYo as of yet, so take them with a grain of salt.
