miHoYo is working on cross save for the launch ofGenshin ImpactVersion 2.0, allowing PS4, PS5players to log into PC and mobile with the same accounts. Moreover, the Switch version ofGenshin Impact,still in development, should be cross save as well.
Right now,Genshin Impactis cross platform. As in, players on PS4 or PS5 can play online co-op mode with PC or mobile players. However, if you started playing the open world JRPG on PC or mobile, while you can play with the same account on these two platforms, you can’t do so on PS4/PS5. Inversely, if you started playingGenshinon PS4 or PS5, your account is stuck there. However, it’ll all be history with cross save.
