Following pre-installation going live earlier this week, HoYoverse has released the newest major Genshin Impact (Free) update. Genshin Impact version 4.5 “Blades Weaving Betwixt Brocade" brings in an alchemic potion shop in Mondstadt, the new 5-star playable character Chiori, the Chronicled Wish system for characters and weapons together, the Training Guide for developing characters, new mini-games, and more on iOS, Android, PS5, PS4, and PC platforms. Full patch notes for the update are here on the official HoYoverse blog for the game. This update also adds the Uraku Misugiri and Dialogues of the Desert Stages weapons, an update for the Genius Invokation TCG with new character cards and action cards.

You can download Genshin Impact for free on the App Store for iOS here and on Google Play for Android here. The PC version is available on the official website here and the Epic Games Store. If you play on iOS, with iOS 14.5 or iPadOS 14.5 and later, you can use PS5 and Xbox Series X|S controllers to play Genshin Impact. We featured Genshin Impact as our Game of the Week when it released and awarded it our 2020 Game of the Year. I also featured it as one of the best iOS games to play with a controller.
