In what our very Austin Wood describes as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:an anime Breath of the Wild, Genshin Impact offers up an open-world adventure where you set out on a journey to reunite with your long-lost sibling. As an online-only experience with gatcha-like elements, it does seem to borrow🎉 some inspiration from Link's adventure with features such as a stamina bar, climbing, and gliding, but Austin highlights that Genshin Impact has its own features that make it worthwhile. 

The game includes a host of differe💧nt characters, and you can build up your own party of four playable characters that you can customise and swap between. It also includes its own progression system with character and adventurer levels to take its own unique spin on the format. And finally, it has co-op cross-play support, so up to four players across PS4, iOS, Android, and PC can head into battle and take on dungeons together. 

The game has been popping up social media more and more since it first launched, and thanks to the fact that it's free-to-play, it sure to see more downloads as word about the game continues to sprꦺe🌸ad.

I started out writing for the games section of a student-run website as an undergrad, and continued to write about games in my free time during retail and temp jobs for a number of years. Eventually, I earned an MA in magazine journalism at Cardiff University, and soon after got my first official role in the industry as a content editor for Stuff magaz꧅ine. After writing about all things tech and games-relat🎐ed, I then did a brief stint as a freelancer before I landed my role as a staff writer here at GamesRadar+. Now I get to write features, previews, and reviews, and when I'm not doing that, you can usually find me lost in any one of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games, tucking into another delightful indie, or drinking far too much tea for my own good.
