Back at Smile Fest 2022, HoYoVerse said it would make Genshin Impact Kaeya and Xiao Nendoroids. However, nothing happened after that announcement. During the Nendoroid FUNS video released on June 12, 2025, it confirmed both characters are still in the works.
However, there is no actual sign of progress on the Kaeya and Xiao Genshin Impact Nendoroids. During the portion of the video when they came up, the same official HoYoVerse art of both characters appeared. There is still no concept art of other of the men in the Nendoroid style. As such, there are also no painted prototypes.
Here’s the full Nendoroid FUNS June 2025 showcase. Kaeya and Xiao showed up at about the 14:24 mark.
The first Genshin Impact Nendoroids came up in 2021. Player avatars Aether and Lumine debuted first. After that, we started to see the Archons. Venti appeared shortly after. The Zhongli one debuted in Japan in May 2025. Raiden Shogun is coming soon too.
However, while the Genshin Impact figures started coming at a slower pace, ones from other HoYoVerse series showed up more frequently. Honkai: Star Rail ones of people like March 7th, Dan Heng, and Aventurine all appeared, and we know Zenless Zone Zero Wise, Belle, and Lycaon will show up in 2025 and 2026 too.
Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, PC, and mobile devices, and the Kaeya and Xiao Nendoroids are still in development.
