Just in case you missed it, the Genshin Impact PS5 Upgrade is going to arrive later in Spring 2021.
The developers, MiHoYo, announced the release window and other minor but important details for the Genshin Impact PS5 update. Unfortunately, miHoYo did not reveal an exact release date for the update. But, at the very least, we know a number of key details regarding the PS5 update for the highly successful RPG gacha title.
What's New in the Genshin Impact PS5 Upgrade?
The PS5 version of Genshin Impact won't really bring any groundbreaking changes to the game. As the name suggests, it's an updated version designed for the PS5. It'll make it possible for Genshin Impact to run at 4K resolution on the PlayStation 5 with enhanced textures and improved loading times.
It's worth taking note that, as of the moment, PS5 owners can already play Genshin Impact. However, it's the PS4 version and as a result, the PS5 version should offer some substantial improvements. If you look at the trailer closely, it might even include ray-tracing support.
In addition to improved graphics and visuals as well as faster loading times, Genshin Impact on the PlayStation 5 will also feature support for the all-new DualSense controller. This likely means haptic feedback for attacks and spells.
Nowhere in the announcement did miHoYo mentioned the frame rates of Genshin Impact on the PlayStation 5. However, the trailer does suggest that it's playing smoothly. At the very least, we should be able to expect the PS5 to be able to maintain gameplay at 60 frames per second even at 4K resolution once the update arrives.
