Genshin Impact 5.0 Leaks: The Game's Coolest-Looking Glider Is Arriving In Natlan

Summary The leaked Natlan glider in Genshin Impact will be red and black with a flame design, added through the new reputation system.

Players must reach the maximum reputation level with five out of six tribes in Natlan to unlock the stylish glider.

Natlan may have the slowest reputation system to max out, different from traditional reputation systems in other regions.

Based on recent leaks, the coolest-looking glider in Genshin Impact will arrive with Natlan in Version 5.0. Gliders have been present since the very release of the action RPG by HoYoverse and are a fundamental part of the exploration mechanics – in fact, some places are only reachable if players use their gliders. There are different types of gliders in the game, though they only affect characters cosmetically and, individually do not provide special gameplay bonuses. Now, with the upcoming release of Natlan in Genshin Impact, a new glider is bound to arrive.

According to new information from an unsourced leaker, which was then posted on Reddit, the new glider from Natlan will be red and black with a design shaped to resemble flames. The left wing will be red with black tips, whereas the right wing will be black with red tips. This will be the regional glider, added to the game via the new reputation system that is incoming with Natlan. In the leaked picture, Mualani is flying with the new Natlan glider in Genshin Impact, showcasing the character’s colors contrasted with the gear.

New Natlan Glider In Genshin Impact Has Leaked

The Equipment Will Be Unlocked Via The New Reputation System In The Nation Of Pyro

While the initial post does not clarify how players can unlock it, a subsequent leak from an unknown source, which was also posted on Reddit, shows that the Natlan glider is a reward from the new reputation system in Natlan. Contrary to the previous reputation systems that had a straightforward leveling mechanic, the reputation system in Natlan will be centered around increasing reputations with various tribes – and players unlock tiers of rewards by maxing out the reputation with each tribe in Genshin Impact’s Natlan region.

As is exemplified in the Reddit leak, the new Natlan glider is a reward that players can claim after they have reached the maximum reputation level with five out of six different tribes across the Nation of Pyro. Based on the leak, each tribe will have four reputation levels to get through, each with its own set of rewards, too. As such, if the leaks are true, players will have to complete 24 reputation levels in Natlan in order to get the stylish new Natlan glider in Genshin Impact.

It is uncertain how much effort this will take and how the reputation split into tribes compares to the traditional one-path systems like in Fontaine, Sumeru, Inazuma, Liyue, and Mondstadt, for example. By consistently completing all the weekly bounties and requests, as well as world exploration and regional quests, players take between 11 and 14 weeks to max out their reputation in Sumeru, as calculated by user Monoglare on HoYoLAB. This would mean that players would take around three months to get the new glider to equip on Natlan characters in Genshin Impact (though characters from other regions can also still equip it).

If each tribe level requires a similar amount of experience from traditional reputation systems, Natlan may become the slowest reputation system to max out.

For now, the leaks should be considered with caution, as a lot of the early beta information is subject to change. Nevertheless, the leaked images do point at one of the best-looking gliders in the game and one that should match characters with red and black color palettes from all other regions, such as Diluc and Dehya. Of course, there are several other rewards to be uncovered once Natlan arrives in Genshin Impact in late August if there are no delays to the regular update schedule.
