Genshin Impact Ifa release date speculation
Ifa released on May 7, 2025. He made his debut on the first phase of the 5.6 Genshin Impact banners, running alongside Genshin Impact's Escoffier and Genshin Impact's Navia.
Ifa is a four-star anemo catalyst user who excels in swirl-focused teams. His elemental skill provides HP for his entire party, and he can also heal his allies and indwelled saurians while out exploring Natlan.
Who is Genshin Impact's Ifa?
Ifa is a renowned Saurian vet from the Flower-Feather Clan. In the Natlan story quest, we learn that he's very close to Ororon, and they appear to live together, seemingly quite far away from the rest of the tribe. They also appear to help each other out with day-to-day tasks. For example, Ifa encourages Ororon and consoles him when he's struggling with his destiny, then asks Ororon to help him subdue a particularly lively saurian.
Genshin Impact's Citlali and Ororon also mention Ifa making deliveries for Ororon, dropping off the vegetables he grows for other members of the tribe, and bringing him parcels from Citlali, who Ororon sees as his elder or 'granny'. The fact that a highly respected and busy vet is running errands for Ororon suggests that they must be pretty close, with Ifa likely taking on such a duty to save Ororon from hanging around people that make him uncomfortable, if his story arc is anything to go by.
In terms of etymology, Ifa's name could be based on Ifá, which is a belief system originating from the region of the Yoruba people. Alternatively, he could be named after Ife, which is a Yoruba name meaning love - which would be pretty cute, considering Ororon's ancient name is Bidii, which means devotion according to the ancient warrior Sanhaj. Love and devotion. Aww.
Who are Genshin Impact Ifa's voice actors?
Ifa's English voice actor is Jonny Loquasto, a sports commentator known for work with WWE. His Japanese voice actor is Junta Terashima, after a change from Morikubo Shotaro.
