Genshin Impact Coming to Xbox in November, No Switch Release Yet

🟣 Content Overview :
  • Genshin Impact arrives on Xbox Series X|S on November 20.
  • 5.0 update on August 28 adds new locations and characters.
  • Originally released on mobile, PC, and PS4 in 2020.
  • Switch version still in development, no release date.
  • Controversy over whitewashing African and Latino characters.

Genshin Impact will finally make its way to Xbox later this year.

HoYoverse revealed the free-to-play anime RPG will be ported in November.

However, a Switch version of the hit game remains missing years after its release on smartphones and PS5.

Key Highlights

  • The open-world action-RPG will arrive on Xbox Series X|S on November 20.
  • The 5.0 update on August 28 adds more locations in Natlan and new characters Mualani, Kinich, and Kachina.
  • Originally released on mobile, PC, and PS4 in 2020, Genshin Impact has dominated with its fun combat and multiplayer co-op.

MiHoYo also released Honkai Star Rail in 2023 and Zenless Zone Zero this July.

Both games are equally beautiful and based on similar business models but haven't quite recaptured the magic of Genshin Impact.

Both of those games are still PS5 console exclusives as well.

What About the Nintendo Switch Version?

The developer last acknowledged its planned port of Genshin Impact for the handheld hybrid console in 2022.

It was officially announced two years previously.

A representative for miHoYo stated, "The Switch version is still in development, and we will release more information as we progress further along."

It's unclear if that's still in the works or indefinitely delayed.

At this point, it seems unlikely that a Switch version of Genshin Impact arrives before the official unveiling of a Switch 2.

Recent Controversies

The game recently came under fire for accusations of whitewashing its African and Latino-inspired characters in Natlan.

It's been a recurring controversy with fans, and even some of Genshin Impact's own voice actors have called on miHoYo to do a better job of showing appreciation for the cultural inspirations it draws on.
