Genshin Impact anniversary 2022: Rewards, gifts, events, banners

Uncle Dawei is here, and he’s brought gifts for every traveler!

It’s been two years since the launch of HoYoverse’s open-world role-playing game, Genshin Impact. Since then, the game has broken numerous records, and released four regions and 54 playable characters.

Of course, its huge success won’t be possible without the support of its players, who helped make Genshin Impact the billion-dollar game that it is today. To give back to all travelers, the developers are giving away tons of freebies and rewards during the Genshin Impact anniversary 2022 celebration.

Here’s everything you need to know about it, including its date, rewards and gifts, banners, and web giveaways.
