When will Genshin Impact launch its own collab with Honkai?
The worlds of Genshin Impact and Honkai are connected and are akin to parallel universes. So it’s very possible in the future that an actual canon story crossover event happens.
It’s also already heavily hinted in Genshin Impact that some of its characters are based on Honkai characters. Like how the Electro Archon in Genshin is likely to be based on Raiden Mei from Honkai.
Genshin Impact is out on PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile. A Nintendo Switch version is also in development, but miHoYo is reportedly struggling with it. Honkai Impact 3rd is available on PC and mobile.
