Is The Smash-hit Genshin Impact Game Getting An Anime Adaptation?

Genshin Impact, one of the most popular video games of 2020, has set the bar high for free games.

Its interface and plotline are so well structured that it is sometimes even compared to an anime. With an ongoing manga, the series is even closer to an anime adaptation.

In this post, we will discuss the possibilities of Genshin Impact getting an anime or if a series production is already underway.

1. Is Genshin Impact Getting An Anime?

There is no news about Genshin Impact getting an anime yet. However, considering the game’s popularity, it won’t be a surprise if an anime adaptation is announced soon.

Let’s discuss why an anime adaptation of Genshin Impact is possible:

2. Manga Adaptation

Genshin Impact has already inspired a webtoon. It is produced by miHoYo and illustrated by multiple artists. A different team of artists illustrates each chapter. It can be read on its official website or the Webtoons app.

The manga currently has 16 chapters, all of which have been translated into 13 languages. The plot is set before the events of the game. It focuses on the Fatui involvement in Mondstadt. It also digs deeper into the characters of Diluc and Kaeya.

miHoYo might be testing the grounds with the manga, and in case it is well received, the anime adaptation is not too far.

3. A Very Detailed Plot

The most exquisite thing about Genshin Impact is its plot. The game consists of several regions, and each region is packed with details. Every background, book, food, and weapon is designed with care and precision. No wonder it is called an anime-game!

The gamer is the traveler who has to go on a quest to find his twin. Each character has been carefully selected, and we get to know their backgrounds as well. The interface is just begging for an anime!

Fans are concerned that due to Genshin Impact being a Chinese game, it might not be adapted into an anime.

However, projects like Tower of God, Noblesse, and God Of Highschool have received anime adaptations even though they are Korean webtoons. This is a ray of hope to all fans out there.

miHoYo has previously created animated shorts out of Honkai Impact, which is another game developed by them. The shorts are available for streaming on Youtube. Based on this, it is quite possible that they might attempt an anime series next.

4. About Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact is an action RPG developed by MiHoYo, a Chinese game developer. It was launched in September 2020. It is an open game that is based in a fantasy world.

The gamer plays the role of Traveller, who is on a quest to find his twin. Tevyat is the fantasy world where the game takes place, and it is divided into seven precincts. The player has to travel across all the regions with their companion, Paimon.
