New Pre-Installation Function Testing Will Soon Begin

To ensure all Travelers have the best-possible experience of Genshin Impact, the developers will soon begin testing of the game's pre-installation function.


The pre-installation function for the Version 1.3 update will be available for open testing on both mobile and PC platforms.

Pre-Installation Function Available Starting:

2021-02-01 11:00:00 (Before updating to Version 1.3, UTC+8)

Travelers on PC can still play the game while pre-installing game resources. Pre-installation will take up a certain amount of your network's bandwidth, so it's best to make sure you have a good network connection before beginning pre-installation.


Travelers on mobile platforms will be unable to play the game while pre-installing game resources. It's recommended that Travelers complete any Domains or other challenges they wish to finish first before beginning the pre-installation process.


After the pre-installation process is complete, Travelers can experience the new version content faster once the update maintenance period is finished.

〓How to Update〓

PC:

After the pre-installation function is available, you must first update the Genshin Impact Launcher. After updating the launcher, a "Game Pre-Installation" button will appear to the left of the "Launch" button. Click "Game Pre-Installation" to download the latest game resources.

​

After completing pre-installation, when the version update is released, open the launcher again and click "Update" to install the game directly without any further need to download game resources.

If pre-installation is not complete, when you reopen the launcher and click "Update," game resources will continue downloading from the point where pre-installation progress ended.

Mobile (iOS & Android)

Method 1:
Travelers may begin pre-installing update resources by going to the Paimon Menu > Settings > Other > Pre-Install Resource Package.
