The testing recruitment for the HarmonyOS version of ‘Genshin Impact’ has eased the concerns of countless ‘travelers’ who have been anxiously awaiting its launch. In the morning, the 1st Customer Service Maiden of miHoYo announced the start of a player recruitment for the HarmonyOS test version of ‘Genshin Impact’. For many ‘travelers’ with HarmonyOS 5 devices who are deeply attached to the world of Teyvat, this is undoubtedly a highly exciting news. Since the launch of HarmonyOS’s game ecosystem, numerous popular games have been successfully adapted and launched on the official server. They are all very envious. Now, the question of ‘Will it be Genshin Impact next?’ has finally been answered affirmatively.
Indeed, the official tone remains tight as always: the test will be kept secret, and the selected ‘travelers’ must sign strict confidentiality agreements, prohibiting the disclosure of test content through any means (screenshots, live streams, videos, etc.). It seems that miHoYo wants to surprise everyone with a big surprise when the final version is launched!
For players, the most important thing is the actual experience. ‘Genshin Impact’ is a game renowned for its high-quality art and complex scenes, often referred to as the ‘benchmark for flagship phone performance.’ Whether it can run smoothly on high-quality graphics on HarmonyOS 5 devices is a critical indicator of a device’s gaming performance. Therefore, the extent to which HarmonyOS 5 can improve performance is a focal point of attention for everyone. Can it offer better frame rates, lower power consumption, and faster loading speeds? This not only tests miHoYo’s optimization skills but also the system’s underlying scheduling capabilities. However, given the 21% improvement in handiness of the HarmonyOS 2 version of ‘Arena of Valor,’ it is clear that HarmonyOS 5 has its strengths, giving players confidence.
Looking at the progress of the HarmonyOS game ecosystem, the recent developments are indeed eye-catching. Games like ‘Arena of Valor’ and ‘Peace Elite’ from the Tencent ecosystem have already been running stably on HarmonyOS 5. Their official versions have performed exceptionally well. Now, with ‘Genshin Impact’ joining the fray, it indicates that the HarmonyOS 5’s ability to adapt to different types of games is maturing at an accelerated pace. From MOBA to shooting games, to open-world RPGs, the playability of games in the HarmonyOS ecosystem is steadily improving, offering players more choices.
Although the official launch of the HarmonyOS version of ‘Genshin Impact’ may still be some time away, the start of the recruitment test at least proves that everything is moving in the right direction. Those who want to experience the Teyvat continent on the HarmonyOS version should hurry and sign up on miHoYo’s platform!
