Genshin Impact 5.5: Android Controller Support Added

Good news for all you Android players of *Genshin Impact*—controller support is on its way! The long-awaited feature is set to roll out with Version 5.5, putting an end to the wait that started when iOS users got it back in 2021. This update is a game-changer, especially for those who prefer the precision and comfort of a controller over touchscreen controls.

When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?

Mark your calendars for March 26th, 2025, as that's when you'll be able to dive into the world of Teyvat using your preferred controller. Genshin Impact will officially support four types: DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Wireless Controller, and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Keep in mind, all these controllers will connect via Bluetooth, enhancing your gameplay experience without the need for wires.

But that's not all Version 5.5 has in store. Alongside controller support, you can expect several quality-of-life improvements. One such feature is cross-scene quest tracking, allowing you to seamlessly follow quests across different areas. Just open the map and teleport to your next destination with ease.

For those looking to master the game, boss guides are getting an update to better explain enemy mechanics, making it easier for newer players to strategize. Additionally, the Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system are all set for optimizations. While the specifics will be unveiled during the Special Program Announcement on March 14th, these updates promise to enhance your overall experience in the game.
