Genshin Impact is easy to get into, being free. Still though, it’s a waste of time to download the whole thing only for it to not work on your device. Here’s an easy list of all the Genshin Impact required specs for PC and Mobile, as well as running it on PS4.

Can my iPhone or iPad run Genshin Impact?
Apple devices are much simpler to figure out whether or not they’re compatible with Genshin Impact. Here’s the specific devices that’ll be able to run the game:
iPhone 8+ iPhone X iPhone XS iPhone XS Max iPhone XR iPhone 11 iPhone 11 Pro iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone SE (2nd Generation) iPad Air (3rd Generation) iPad mini (5th Generation) iPad Pro (2nd Generation) 12.9 inches iPad Pro (2nd Generation) 10.5 inches iPad Pro (3rd Generation) 11 inches iPad Pro (3rd Generation) 12.9 inches iPad Pro (4th Generation) 11 inches iPad Pro (4th Generation) 12.9 inches
Some less powerful iPhones will still be able to run Genshin Impact, but they won’t be as reliable as these. You’ll also need iOS 9.0 and above, as well as 8GB of storage space.
Can my PS4 or PS5 run Genshin Impact?
According to Genshin Impact’s site, all versions of the PS4 can run Genshin Impact as long as they reserve 30GB of storage space. However, I and many other PS4 players have encountered a lot of slowdown and frame rate drops on the base PS4, so keep this in mind when deciding to delete games to make storage space. Genshin Impact is also available on PS5, and if you’re lucky enough to own one it’s recommended that you install Genshin Impact on that rather than on your PS4. The game loads much faster and plays more smoothly on PS5 than on a last-gen console, with the experience being comparable to running the game on a high-end PC. You can also easily transfer a Genshin Impact save over from a PS4 to a PS5 if and when you choose to upgrade. That’s all for our Genshin Impact specs page!
