Genshin Impact Nintendo Switch Version Reported to be Delayed

A new report has revealed that the promised Nintendo Switch version of popular online game Genshin Impact will be delayed.

The report comes from popular Genshin Leaker Genshin Report. He revealed that the Nintendo Switch version has been delayed because it has a weaker hardware compared to the PC and PlayStation consoles. Even on smartphones, the requirements are rather high so it does make sense that the Switch version has been delayed.

The leaker did say that the Switch version is still coming this year, but did not specify what month or day it will be coming out. Hopefully it is still within this year and not delayed further to next year.

No official announcements have been made by miHoYo, so this should be taken with a grain of salt for now.

Speaking of official announcements, miHoYo has announced that the game will now have an additional option of the 2 factor authentication aka 2FA account verification. It will be added on May 17. Check out the official announcement here.

Genshin Impact is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, PS5, Android, and iOS. No word yet on its Nintendo Switch version.
