In a significant move for the gaming community, MiHoYo has announced that support for the PS4 version of Genshin Impact will officially end in April 2026. This decision stems from the growing demands of the game, which have outstripped the hardware capabilities of the aging console. As the eighth console generation continues to fade, this announcement highlights the inevitable transition to more powerful gaming systems. The shutdown will occur in three phases, starting with the removal of the game from the PlayStation Store on September 10, 2025.
