If you're a Genshin Impact player on Android, you're in for a treat. The long-awaited controller support is finally on its way, set to arrive with Version 5.5. Android users have been eagerly waiting for this feature, especially since iOS players have been enjoying it since 2021.

When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?

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

In addition to controller support, Version 5.5 is packed with quality-of-life enhancements. One of the standout features is cross-scene quest tracking, allowing you to follow quests across different regions without interruption. Simply open the map and teleport directly to your quest's next location.

For newer players, the boss guides are being updated to provide clearer insights into enemy mechanics. Moreover, the Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system are all receiving optimizations. The full scope of these changes will be unveiled during the Special Program Announcement on March 14th.
