With the excitement buzzing for Version 5.6 of Genshin Impact, there was one moment that caused fans to go wild more than any other: Varka has finally spoken! But who is behind the voice of Mondstadt's Grand Master?

Who is Varka in Genshin Impact?

Varka is the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, also known as the "Knight of Boreas." He is a giant figure in the lore of Mondstadt, referred to by cherished characters like Jean, Eula, and Razor. He went away to an expedition six months ago, leaving Jean to act as Grand Master during his absence. For the longest time, Varka was without a voice within the game and was only given the mythology and admiration by others.

Who voices Varka in the Japanese version?

Legendary voice actor Tomokazu Sugita takes on the role of Varka in Japanese. Known for his unforgettable performances as:
  • Gintoki Sakata in Gintama
  • Escanor in The Seven Deadly Sins
  • Joseph Joestar in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
  • Yusuke Kitagawa in Persona 5 Royal
  • Gyomei Himejima in Demon Slayer
Sugita's rich and commanding voice promises to give Varka the charisma and weight players have imagined for years.

Why was Varka's Japanese voice revealed first?

Highlighting their Japanese releases in the 5.6 livestream due to the SAG-AFTRA strike complications affecting English productions, HoYoverse made fans hear Varka's voice first through the Japanese trailer, where he shared a moment with Venti.

Who would be voicing Varka in Chinese?


The name of Varka in Chinese is actually endowed with Hao Xianghai as he got into the shoes of Varka. It is the name always echoed within the voice-acting circles of China as the one who applied powerful and emotional sounds to many different characters across anime and even gaming projects.

What do other characters in the game say about Varka?


Even before he had a voice, Varka influenced massively on those around him.Jean calls him 'a legend of his generation.'Barbara prays for his safe return, showing her affection and faith. Diluc gives him cryptic respect but hints at differences.Eula, never the one to accept defeat, still finds it hard to accept that they ever had a spar.Rosaria teases that he talks too much but admits that he possesses a good heart.

What these characters think forms an interesting mosaic of a leader who is strong and straight, caring, and a bit rough around the edges.
Now that he has actually made his debut in voice, Varka almost seems to have fully arrived. Whether it be as a future playable character or a central figure in other story arcs to come, one thing is for sure: "Welcome to the age of Varka." It already sounds legendary.
