Yunjin
According to renowned leaker, @Tangzhu_Tz, Yunjin’s banner will release with the arrival of Genshin Impact’s 2.4 update. Yunjin’s abilities have yet to be revealed, but there has been speculation that she could be the game’s first Dendro character.

I can vouch for the same info that 2.4 will bring Yunjin with no news on Shenhe's release (from my info), I can also add that 2.4 should also bring a new area – Likely to be the Chasm. https://t.co/K4D5tNmTwq

Hailing from the region of Liyue, Yunjin is known for her amazing opera performances. In fact, a number of voice line leaks revolve around characters praising Yunjin’s beautiful singing voice and elegant stage presence.

While we have yet to see Yunjin’s in-game abilities and weapon, we’ll likely see more leaks as we get closer to 2.4’s release date.
Shenhe
Although Shenhe was first revealed in November 2020, news surrounding her has been rather scarce. Despite miHoYo scrubbing her code from the game’s files, we do know that Shenhe was originally classified as a Cryo character.
-Shenli (Shen He)-
In recent stories, we know her as the crane Adepti, Cloud Retainer.
Her name, Shen He, also means God of Crane.
She is a cyro claymore user and probably a 5 star character.Here are some of her images, made by fans.#genshinimpact #原神#shenli pic.twitter.com/ODeFw1UIjs

Early datamines also found that Shenhe wielded a Claymore, but this has since changed to a Polearm. Interestingly, Shenhe’s name means “God of Crane,” which has led many fans to believe that her abilities will share synergy with Cloud Retainer.

Genshin Impact 2.4 map update
The Chasm
Renowned Genshin Impact leaker, @Ubatcha1, announced that the Chasm would finally be explorable in the 2.4 update. The Chasm is located west of Lisha in the Liyue region and is currently inaccessible.
The area leading to the Chasm is an abandoned mine, which is home to an abundance of ores used to forge various items. According to the Genshin Impact wiki, a series of mysterious accidents led the entire mine to be closed.
I can vouch for the same info that 2.4 will bring Yunjin with no news on Shenhe's release (from my info), I can also add that 2.4 should also bring a new area – Likely to be the Chasm. https://t.co/K4D5tNmTwq

Esther, an NPC located in Dragonspine also notes that the Chasm’s climate is different from Liyue. When discussing the climate of Dragonspine, Esther notes that she has seen similar occurrences elsewhere.

“I’ve seen similar occurrences elsewhere in the past, such as the Chasm in Liyue, so there may be some similarities in their respective terrain features.” This likely means the Chasm will share the same mountainous terrain as Dragonspine, but will likely be arid in its climate.
The ancient Geo elemental dragon, Azhdaha, also famously dwelled within the Chasm before finding his way to the Trounce Domain Beneath the Dragon-Queller. Judging from the world map, the Chasm certainly seems to cover a large area.
Genshin Impact 2.4 Keqing and Ningguang skins
The Keqing and Ningguang skins have been rumored for a while now, but according to @Ubatcha1, they will release as part of Genshin Impact’s 2.4 update. Both skins will launch alongside the Lantern Rite event. This event was previously released in Version 1.3, which saw the appearance of Xiao – a 5-star Anemo Adeptus.

While miHoYo has yet to reveal how you can get Keqing and Ningguang’s skins, they will likely follow a similar pattern to the game’s previous Jean and Barbara skins. During the event, Jean’s “Sea Breeze Dandelion” skin was available for purchase in the in-game Shop for a limited-time discount.
Meanwhile, Barbara’s could be unlocked via completing requirements in the new Echoing Tales event. Because of this, it’s speculated that Keqing’s skin will be purchasable for 1,350 Genesis Crystals, while Ningguang’s will be free to claim during the event.
