How to Save Your Genshin Impact Game
Auto-Save Feature Included
Genshin Impact features an auto-save system on all available platforms. This means you can close the game at any time from the Paimon Menu and your progress will not be lost!
Checkpoints are available inside Domains
Checkpoints can be found within the Domains encountered as part of the Main Story Quests. Unlike other locations in the game, players cannot quit the game within a Story Domain and restart from the same point, so these checkpoints are provided to allow players the option to quit midway through.
You can quit and come back
If you end the game after passing through one of these checkpoints, you will start again at the Save Point. If you quit the game during a Story Domain without reaching any checkpoint, you will start the game again at the point before you entered the Domain.
Cross Save and Crossplay Availability
Cross Saving is Available Between All Platforms
Since Version 2.0, players are now able to link their Playstation accounts to a separate e-mail address and use the same account on different platforms!
This means players can play with the same save on PC, iOS, Android, PS4 and PS5.
Version 2.0 Release Date & Patch Notes
Cross-saves on Switch
The Nintendo Switch version of the game has still not been released. As such, the possibility of cross-saves on the Switch is still up in the air. Since there's no guarantee that cross-saves will be available for the Switch, it's best to hold out for the Switch release for those who want to play on the Switch later on.
System Requirements and File Size
Crossplay Availability
Crossplay is available for all systems that can run Genshin Impact. This includes PC, mobile, PS4, and PS5. For more information on crossplay and how it works, check out the guide below.
How to Cross Save
Cross Save on PC and Mobile
For PC and Mobile players, all you need to do to cross save is to use the same email address on both devices and select the same server. With that you are easily able to play at home or on the go.
Cross Save on PS4 and PS5
To successfully link your PSN and miHoYo accounts, you must use a valid email address that hasn't been linked to any miHoYo accounts before. To link an existing PC or Mobile account to your playstation, you must use a PSN account that hasn't been used to play yet.
