For all the *Genshin Impact* fans playing on Android, exciting news awaits you! The long-awaited controller support is finally coming your way with the Version 5.5 update. Yes, you heard it right—no more struggling with the touchscreen, as you'll be able to immerse yourself in the world of Teyvat using a controller. This feature has been eagerly anticipated, especially since iOS players enjoyed it since 2021.
When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?
Starting March 26th, 2025, you can seamlessly connect your Android device to a controller and dive into Genshin Impact. The update will officially support four controllers: DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Wireless Controller, and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Keep in mind, all these require Bluetooth connectivity.
But that's not all! Version 5.5 brings a host of other quality-of-life improvements. One standout feature is cross-scene quest tracking, allowing you to follow quests across different areas effortlessly. Simply open the map and teleport directly to your quest destination.
New players will benefit from updated boss guides, making it easier to grasp enemy mechanics. Additionally, the Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system are all slated for optimizations. Full details on these enhancements will be unveiled during the Special Program Announcement on March 14th.
