Genshin Impact Gains Android Controller Support in 5.5
Controller support is coming to the Android version of Genshin Impact as part of version 5.5. This is part of several quality-of-life improvements being added to the game with the latest update. This comes almost five years after its September 2020 debut. Once 5.5 lands, Android players will finally be able to connect a PlayStation or Xbox controller via Bluetooth to play Genshin Impact on their devices. The game will support the PS5 DualSense, the PS4’s DualShock 4, the Xbox Wireless Controller and the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. The PlayStation controllers will require users to have Android 12.0 or above installed on their device. Xbox controllers will only require Android 9.0 or above. As well as controller support for Android, Genshin Impact 5.5 will add a number of other quality-of-life features. Map tracking will become easier, as it will teleport you to the correct map for the quest you’re heading towards. A new Path of Challenge feature will also make it easier to track boss locations. Other features include batch exchanges at the Serenitea Pot’s Realm Depot and a search function for the Gift Mail Box. Genshin Impact 5.5 is the next update for the game. While details about the update are still being slowly released, we do know who the new characters will be. Iansan and Varesa are both from the Natlan Collective of Plenty tribe and will be new Electro characters. Genshin Impact is out now for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S and mobile devices. The release date for version 5.5 has yet to be announced. The post Genshin Impact Gains Android Controller Support in 5.5 appeared first on Siliconera.
