The collaboration between HoYoverse and Ufotable was only announced on September 16, 2022. In their statement, they mention that the 'project between Genshin Impact and Ufotable has begun', which suggests that the anime is only in its early stages of development. That means it could be long before we get word of an official release date.
All Confirmed Characters
From the concept trailer, Paimon, Aether, and Lumine are three characters that will be appearing in the Genshin Impact anime. We can expect the cast to consist of more characters from the game, but that information is yet to be released.
Paimon
Paimon is the infamous NPC guide in Genshin Impact who accompanies us Travelers throughout our journey in the magical world of Teyvat.
Aether And Lumine
The Traveler twins, Aether and Lumine, will be making an appearance in the Genshin Impact anime. They are the characters we get to choose from at the beginning of the game's main storyline.
All Confirmed Locations
So far, only three locations have been revealed to be making an appearance in the Genshin Impact anime: Dragonspine, Mondstadt, and the Statues of the Seven. Granted, the anime will be set in the world of Teyvat, so we're more than likely to see other famous locations from the game.
Dragonspine
Dragonspine is a colossal mountain that houses the ruins of Durin and is perpetually engulfed in snow. Before Durin's downfall, Dragonspine was known as Vindagnyr. But to this day, it is still known as one of the most dangerous places in Teyvat.
Mondstadt
Mondstadt is one of the seven regions in Teyvat and actually one of the first we get to explore in Genshin Impact. The great open plains and forests of the region are shown in the anime's concept trailer.
Statues Of The Seven
Statues of the Seven are structures that can be found throughout Teyvat. Despite its name, there are more than 24 statues that are scattered in every one of the seven regions.
That's it! That's everything we know so far. As time passes, we can expect more news and details to be shared about it.
