Genshin Impact has replaced Kinich's English voice actor in Version 5.5, and the original cast member has reacted to the announcement. Kinich is a highly popular character in Genshin Impact that became playable with the release of Natlan.
After a pause from releasing new Natlan content, Genshin Impact recently launched its 5.5 update with new explorable areas and characters from the Pyro Nation. The patch added Varesa and the highly anticipated Iansan to the playable roster, as well as a new story chapter featuring both units. However, developer HoYoverse also made some major changes to the game regarding voiceovers. Earlier in March, it was revealed that Genshin Impact would recast Ifa's Japanese voice actor. Now, yet another major character has suffered a similar fate.
A recent leak from a reliable source teases when Durin, a major lore character in Genshin Impact, will get to join the game's playable cast.
As confirmed by Genshin Impact's official patch notes, Kinich's English voice actor has been recast in Version 5.5. According to HoYoverse, the new actor is Jacob Takanashi and the change only applies to new content in the latest update. However, historical content will be updated gradually in later patches as well....
