Developer miHoYo has revealed the Genshin Impact system requirements in preparation for the official launch on September 28, 2020 at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). This way, every player is able to see if their platform is capable of running the anticipated open world action RPG with the minimum or recommended configuration. The Genshin Impact specs below leave room for improvement as miHoYo continues to optimize the game and will update them if any changes occur.
Since the official launch is leaving the Switch version out of the equation – a release date for Nintendo's version is yet to be confirmed – and Genshin Impact wasn't announced for Xbox One, the system requirements only cover the PC, PS4, Android, and iOS platforms.
