While we were trying our best to grasp the leaks on the two new Dendro element users, Tighnari and Collei, and the upcoming Electro user, Dori, we got leaks on a new Dendro user whose appearance draws a close resemblance to Su from Honkai Impact The Third. 

And on June 22nd, 2022, we finally have the visuals and the name of the Su-like character—confirming his existence in the game. You can find the character art below. 

And as for the name goes. You may already know it from the title. The Su-like character in Genshin Impact is called Al-Haytham. Keep in mind! There can be translational errors as the name was in Arabic. Moreover, the final spelling and name is subject to change as HoYoverse has altered names, abilities, and other such things of leaked characters in the final version of the game. 

QRT of a QRT nice. ig we finally got his name and now people can stop calling him "Su".

Thanks @hxg_diluc

In arabic, Al-Haitham or Al-Haytham would be the correct way of writing the name however there's always the chance MHY write it weirdly. https://t.co/O8fa7jbAzr

As we mentioned earlier, we have leaks that suggest Al-Haytham is a Dendro user. Moreover, based on the appearance, he can certainly be a five-star unit than being a four-star. As for weapon and release goes—there is no details on that.

One thing players should know is that, during Al-Haytham is not playable in Genshin Impact 3.0 update. Though he plays a major role in the Sumeru arc and he is also aquainted with the Dendro Archon, the Lesser God Kusanali.
