Genshin Impact coming to PS5 this spring – Gematsu

Genshin Impact

miHoYo will release a native PlayStation 5 version of free-to-play open-world action RPG Genshin Impact this spring, the developer announced.

The PlayStation 5 version will feature higher image quality, performance, and further evolutions, including upgraded textures across every part of the game, 4K resolution support, and faster load times that will allow players to enjoy a more seamless experience as they travel between the in-game environments.

“The PlayStation 5 is an ideal platform to enhance the vast open world featuring in Genshin Impact, allowing the team to incorporate more thoughts and ideas into the game, both now and in the future,” said miHoYo president Forrest Liu in a press release. “That’s why we’ve been working to bring the native PlayStation 5 version of the game to our players as soon as we could.”

Genshin Impact is available now for PlayStation 4, PC, iOS via the App Store, and Android via Google Play. A Switch version is also planned.
