Genshin Impact Switch Version Delayed Due to Insufficient Hardware Performance?

The strengthening of Genshin Impact’s dominance as one of the most successful free-to-play games today deserves appreciation. Because apart from guaranteeing game life and consistent support over the long term, this also opens up opportunities for miHoYo to bring its games to more platforms. Talking about the same topic, coincidentally they are even planning to release Genshin Impact on Nintendo Switch which unfortunately is still not clear.

This is certainly quite a question mark, because Genshin Impact has even been released on the PlayStation 5 which was only announced a few months ago, while the Switch version has been confirmed to be “coming soon” although until now there is no sign that the game is ready to visit the platform. This curiosity was finally answered through the latest reports from users Genshin Report, who said that the Nintendo Switch version of Genshin Impact was delayed due to weaker hardware performance limitations.

Even though it’s not a heavy game, Genshin Impact still requires good performance, including when played on a smartphone. This of course does not indicate a cancellation, but only a delay in the release that is still targeted for this year, at least from the confirmation provided by Genshin Report.

The information shared is still only a leak without official confirmation, so for the time being we can only wait for the announcement from miHoYo itself. In addition to hardware performance limitations, there was also a discussion that the delay in this release was due to the implementation of microtransactions through the eShop which needed adjustments and many more.
