HoYoverse's beloved action-RPG Genshin Impact is yet to make its debut on the Nintendo Switch, but the possibility of it transitioning to the Switch 2 is still alive. The game has enjoyed immense success on PC, PlayStation consoles, and mobile platforms. With a steady stream of updates introducing new characters, regions, and storylines, Genshin Impact continues to captivate its fan base.

Despite being initially announced for the Nintendo Switch well before its launch, Genshin Impact has not materialized on the platform. The teaser trailer from January 2020 hinted at the game's Switch release, but over four years later, fans are still waiting.

While official statements suggest that the Genshin Impact Switch version is in progress, the prolonged silence has left fans skeptical. Although the promise of a Switch release seems broken, there is a glimmer of hope for a potential debut on a Nintendo console.

The Potential for Genshin Impact on the Switch 2

As the Nintendo Switch nears the end of its lifecycle, anticipation builds for its successor, speculated to be unveiled this year and released in 2025. The rumored enhancements in the Switch 2 could pave the way for Genshin Impact to finally arrive on a Nintendo platform.

Should Genshin Impact find its home on the Switch 2, while some fans may feel let down by the delay, others will welcome the game's debut on a Nintendo console, even if it means embracing the newer console.
