Author : Violet Update : May 02,2025

If you're a *Genshin Impact* player on Android, you're in for a treat. The long-awaited controller support is finally making its way to your device with the upcoming Version 5.5 update. Yes, you heard it right—Android users can now join their iOS counterparts, who enjoyed this feature since 2021.

When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?

Starting March 26th, 2025, you'll be able to connect your Android device to a controller and dive into the world of *Genshin Impact* without relying on the touchscreen. The update will officially support four controllers: DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Wireless Controller, and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Make sure your controller has Bluetooth capability, as it's a requirement for this feature.

In addition to controller support, Version 5.5 promises a host of quality-of-life improvements. One of the highlights is the introduction of cross-scene quest tracking, allowing you to seamlessly follow quests across different areas. Just open the map and teleport directly to your desired destination.

Newer players will benefit from updated boss guides, which aim to better explain enemy mechanics. Furthermore, the Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system are all set to receive optimizations. For a detailed look at these changes, tune into the Special Program Announcement on March 14th.
