Shikanoin Heizo is the first male character with a catalyst in Genshin Impact.
Shikanoin Heizo took the Genshin Impact community by storm. Fans have taken over all social media platforms to express their emotions.
Heizo is an upcoming playable character that players can expect to see on banners in the upcoming 2.8 patch update.
Heizo's official appearance may suggest that he uses a sword, but in reality, he will be the first male catalyst added to Genshin Impact.
This article will discuss everything players need to know about Heizo being the first Catalyst user.
Shikanoin Heizo becomes the first male catalyst user in Genshin Impact
Shikanoin Heizo is a young detective who works for the Tenryū Commission. He has been described as cheerful and lively, very free-spirited and rebellious.
Despite his youthful appearance, Shikanoin Heizo is known as the best detective in the Inazuma region.
Based on the latest leaks from reliable sources, it has been revealed that Shikanoin Heizo will be the first male character to use Catalysts in Genshin Impact.
The leaks also mention that Shikanoin Heizo will be a 4-star character instead of a 5-star one. The rarity has not yet been confirmed by officials. Hence, players are advised to wait for official announcements for this.
It shocked the most when credible leaks announced Heizou as a catalyst user. Several photos, such as the one shown in the tweet below, showed that Scaramuccia will be a catalyst user.
There were virtually no leaks about Heizo and his choice of weapons, and Scaramucci fans were disappointed when the leaks revealed more about Heizo.
Inazuma is inspired by old Japan, which can be observed from all over the region and its culture. This can also be seen in Heizo's official appearance.
Like every other person in Inazuma, Heizo can be seen wearing waraji (shoes), which are also worn by soldiers in Inazuma.
His appearance can be a huge misconception for fans as the official image shows a sword-like weapon dangling from his waist. The thing around his waist is called a "jitte or jutte", a club-shaped weapon used by the Edo period Japanese police to block swords.
That's all players need to know about the type of weapon the Shikanoin Heizo will use. Hopefully, future leaks and official announcements will reveal more about the detective's rise statistics and materials.
