Genshin Impact, the open-world JRPG from developer MiHoYo, has been an incredible success on PS4, PC, and mobile. Many are wondering when the game will be coming to Nintendo Switch. The good news is that a Switch port is in development, the bad news is that we do not yet have a release date.
In an interview with RPG Site, Sam Lai, head of communications at MiHoYo talked about the upcoming Switch port, saying "The Switch version of Genshin Impact is currently under development. More information regarding Switch beta testing and launch dates will be announced at a later time."
Given the overwhelming popularity of Genshin Impact, it would make sense for the Switch port to come sooner rather than later. It's likely we'll find out more information about the Switch version soon, with a release date, hopefully, in 2021.
The big question is whether or not the Switch version of Genshin Impact will have cross-save. Currently, cross-save is only available between PC and mobile, while PS4 players only have access to cross-play, but not cross-save. With the Switch version of the game still in development, it's possible we'll see cross-save in that version so that players can continue right where they left off.
In the meantime, so major gameplay updates are coming to the current versions Genshin Impact. Klee just got her own banner, making her the first post-launch character to be made available from pulls. The next update will add a better fast travel system. And several new characters, quests, and events were recently leaked.
