Version 6.2 continues to expand the future Liyue and Lunar Crystallize storyline with fresh details about the White Horse Adeptus, now officially named Zibai in English. Alongside a new 6.2 namecard, recent information confirms that Zibai will receive dedicated About voicelines from core Liyue characters such as Ningguang, Xianyun and Zhongli, further cementing White Horse as a figure rooted deeply in Liyue’s history and adeptal legacy.
The most important confirmation is that White Horse’s official EN name is Zibai. This aligns with previous mentions of “White Horse Adeptus” and validates earlier leaks about a 5 star Geo Sword DPS whose kit is built around DEF scaling and Lunar Crystallize focused gameplay. Having a fixed English name allows theorycrafters, lore analysts and SEO driven communities to refer to the character consistently when discussing Zibai builds, Lunar Crystallize teams and artifact synergies in Version 6.3 and beyond.
In 6.2, a new namecard themed around this wave of content is also introduced. While not a direct Zibai namecard yet, it contributes to the visual identity of the upcoming Hexenzirkel and Lunar era, giving players another cosmetic reward that ties into banners, events and future character releases like Durin, Columbina and Zibai. Namecards are an important part of Genshin’s personalization layer, and a new design in 6.2 hints that more character specific cosmetics will arrive alongside Zibai’s playable debut.
The lore side becomes especially rich with the reveal of new “About” voicelines for White Horse and Zibai. Three major Liyue characters reference this Adeptus directly.
Ningguang: About the White Horse Adeptus
Ningguang’s voiceline, while not fully quoted here, is centered on “the White Horse Adeptus.” This suggests that Zibai holds a notable position in Liyue’s history as an adeptal being or a figure intertwined with contracts, trade routes or ancient defense. Ningguang’s involvement indicates that Zibai’s presence affects both geo politics and economic balance in Liyue, which fits a DEF scaling Geo Sword who likely anchors shield, crystal and barrier interactions.Xianyun: About Zibai
Xianyun’s voiceline refers to the character directly as “Zibai.” Since Xianyun herself is tied to Liyue’s adepti and to the old order of guardians, her commentary positions Zibai as part of this same mythic circle. The fact that she uses the official name implies familiarity and possibly hints at shared campaigns, responsibilities or disagreements across centuries. For team building, it also hints at a thematic synergy between Xianyun and Zibai, both connected to adeptal power and high altitude movement, even if their elements differ.Zhongli: About White Horse / Zibai
The most striking piece is Zhongli’s poetic voiceline about Zibai, reflecting his memory as Rex Lapis and his bond with ancient beings. Zhongli says:
“The white horse... An old acquaintance, and one I haven't met in a very long time... One laments spring nights, how short they last, and autumn days that quickly pass. A steed that bolts and swiftly flees, a candle shivering in the breeze.”
This line is loaded with symbolism. Zhongli calls the white horse “an old acquaintance,” which firmly confirms that Zibai is a figure from Liyue’s distant past, not a recent arrival. The reflection on spring nights and autumn days evokes the passage of time and mortality, while the image of a steed that bolts and a candle shivering in the breeze suggests fragility, fleeting moments and perhaps a tragic or dramatic turning point in Zibai’s history. For lore enthusiasts, this positions Zibai as an adeptus who has endured loss, separation or radical change, fitting the serious tone expected from a major 5 star Geo DPS.
These voicelines also help frame Zibai’s place in the broader 6.x roadmap.
Zibai is tied to Liyue through Ningguang, Xianyun and Zhongli.
Zibai is integrated into Lunar Crystallize compositions as a DEF scaling Geo Sword unit.
And Zibai is emotionally contextualized through Zhongli’s poetic lament, hinting at long standing relationships and stories that will likely be explored alongside Lantern Rite, new Liyue events and the 6.3 artifact sets.
With Durin and Jahoda anchoring Hexenzirkel resonance in 6.2, and Columbina and Zibai leading Lunar reaction teams in 6.3, the confirmation of White Horse’s official EN name Zibai, the existence of a new 6.2 namecard and the introduction of these About voicelines all serve to prepare players for a powerful Liyue centered phase of the late game.
