With Version 5.5, Genshin Impact Is Finally Adding Controller Support for Android

If you're a *Genshin Impact* enthusiast playing on Android, you'll be thrilled to know that controller support is finally on its way. The long-awaited feature will be introduced in Version 5.5, ending the wait that began when iOS users received this update back in 2021.

When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?

Mark your calendars for March 26th, 2025, as that's when you'll be able to enhance your *Genshin Impact* experience by connecting your Android device to a controller. This update will support four specific controllers: DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Wireless Controller, and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Keep in mind, all these controllers require Bluetooth connectivity.

In addition to controller support, Version 5.5 brings a host of quality-of-life improvements. One significant addition is cross-scene quest tracking, allowing you to seamlessly follow quests across different areas. Simply open the map and teleport directly to your desired location, making your adventure smoother and more enjoyable.

The update also includes enhanced boss guides, designed to assist newer players in understanding enemy mechanics more effectively. Furthermore, optimizations are coming to the Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system. While the full details of these enhancements will be disclosed during the Special Program Announcement on March 14th, they promise to enrich your gameplay significantly.
