Genshin Impact has been a smash hit on mobile, PC, and PlayStation 4, and although a Switch version was planned for 2020, no release date has been confirmed. Indeed, there has been no mention of the Nintendo version for quite some time.
Last year, a report arose that the game had been delayed because Switch’s hardware was inferior to other platforms.
