Genshin Impactboss domains are a big part of the game, and they can be one of the most challenging end-game activities apart from the Spiral Abyss. Developer MiHoYo often introduces popular playable characters as new bosses due to their villain role in a certain part of the story.
The currentGenshin ImpactVersion 2.6 has brought a new Automaton boss named Ruin Serpent who has quickly become a fan-favorite due to his unique animations and attack pattern. After Tartaglia, Raiden Shogun, and La Signora, players might have the chance to cross swords with another popular character on a weekly basis.

A recent leak on theGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddit revealed more information about an upcoming weekly boss. According to a very credible insider codenamed Uncle DumbDumb, one of the mostpopularGenshin Impactcharacters, Scaramouche, could soon arrive as a weekly boss. Going by the leak, his arrival should be inGenshin ImpactVersion 3.1 which according to the game’s usual update schedule, should arrive at the end of September this year.
Another reason why this might be accurate is the fact that updates 1.1 and 2.1 brought a combination of aGenshin ImpactArchon (Zhongli and Raiden Shogun) and a popular character as a new weekly boss (Childe and Signora). The same scenario could happen in the next major update which will bring thelong-awaitedGenshin Impactregion of Sumerualongside its protector, the Dendro Archon also known as the Lesser Lord Kusanali and the God of Wisdom.
Scaramouche has been a part of the game for a very long time as he made his first appearance back in update 1.1 in the Unreconciled Stars event. He is known to be a high-ranking member of the Fatui Harbingers which are one of the main antagonist factions in thestory ofGenshin Impact. Unlike Childe who is a well-known Harbinger, Scaramouche is notable for his two-faced personality which almost caught the Traveler off guard back in the “The Crisis Deepens” quest.
Players are hoping for Harbinger to become a playable character in the future since there are alreadyrumors about Scaramouche’s kit. Apparently his Elemental Skill allows him to fire a power beam dealing AoE damage which led most fans to believe that he could be the game’s first Catalyst DPS character. However, his arrival as a new weekly boss does not mean that he will appear as a playable character any time soon. La Signora, who has played a major part in the early Archon quests, arrived as a new boss without joining the playable roster.
