Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact features an action-based combat system centered around elemental reactions. Each character wields one of seven elements (Pyro, Hydro, Electro, Cryo, Anemo, Geo, Dendro), and combining these elements in battle creates powerful reactions. Players build teams of four characters to maximize these synergies.

Exploration is a core pillar of the experience. The world of Teyvat spans seven nations, each with distinct landscapes, cultures, puzzles, and secrets. Climbing, gliding, and swimming are all available from the start, encouraging thorough exploration.

The story follows the Traveler searching for their lost twin sibling across Teyvat. Major storyline quests are fully voice-acted and feature cinematic cutscenes. Between main quests, side stories flesh out the world and its diverse cast of characters.
