Genshin Impact will be coming to PS5 but there are ‘no plans’ for Xbox, the developer has confirmed.
Speaking to Twinfinite, developer miHoYo was asked if the game would be appearing on next-gen consoles. This is what they said:
"We have plans regarding next-gen consoles, and we will be announcing them as these plans take shape. We do not currently have plans to release the game on Xbox."
Of course, these plans can change over time, but right now it looks as though Sony is top of miHoYo’s list when it comes to next-gen.
