The test will happen in Q1 2020 (which means it’s quite close, even if there is no specific date just yet), and it’ll be on PC and mobile platforms.

The game is also coming for PS4 and Nintendo Switch, but console platforms won’t be included in the next beta. That being said, the press release mentions that there will be more phases before release.

Genshin Impact is scheduled to launch for PC, PS4, Switch, iOS, and Android in late 2020, so there’s still plenty of time.

This next round of beta will include the new city of Liyue Harbor, and registrations are already open on the official site.

As a matter of fact, the press release mentions “PlayStation” instead of PS4, but at the moment we don’t know if this is a hint to an upcoming release on PS5 as well. We reached out to MiHoYo to hear if they have anything to share on the topic.

Alongside the press release, we got the new official key artwork and some lovely art, which you can see below.

If you want to see more, you can enjoy another trailer from Chinajoy. Recently, Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida mentioned MiHoYo as an example of the momentum enjoyed by developers from Asia.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
