If you're a *Genshin Impact* player on Android, you're in for a treat. Controller support is finally on its way, and the wait is almost over. With the upcoming Version 5.5, expected to roll out soon, you'll be able to dive into the game using your preferred controller. This feature has been eagerly anticipated, especially since iOS players have enjoyed it since 2021.
When Will Genshin Impact Get Controller Support on Android?
Mark your calendars for March 26th, 2025, as that's when you can start connecting your Android device to a controller for a more immersive *Genshin Impact* experience. The update will officially support four controllers: DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Wireless Controller, and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Keep in mind, all of these require Bluetooth connectivity.
But that's not all—Version 5.5 is bringing a host of quality-of-life improvements. One of the standout features is cross-scene quest tracking. This means you'll be able to follow your quests seamlessly across different areas by simply opening the map and teleporting to your next destination.
Additionally, boss guides are set for an update, which will be a boon for newer players looking to understand enemy mechanics better. The Artifact system, Serenitea Pot, and Mail system are all slated for optimizations, though the full details will be unveiled during the Special Program Announcement on March 14th.
