Genshin Impact will stop PS4 support in 2026
By Marco Wutz

HoYoverse announced that it will stop supporting Genshin Impact on PS4 in the near future. The open-world RPG will no longer receive updates on the last-gen console from April 8, 2026.
In the run-up to the end of support, Genshin Impact will be removed from the PlayStation Store for PS4 on September 10, 2025, preventing players from adding it to their library. On February 25, 2026, in-game purchases will be removed in the final preparatory step ahead of the support stop.
HoYoverse stated “limitations related to hardware performance and platform application size” as reasons behind the decision. The PS5 version will continue on as normal.
