Genshin Impact 2.5 will soon be available for preloading, which kicks off at 10pm EST on February 13th!

This gives players just a couple days to download the massive update ahead of time to get in right from launch.

Genshin Impact 2.5 File Size

Genshin Impact 2.5’s file size will be around 6 GB for PC players.

In the case of mobile players, the IOS file size will be around 3.5 GB, and 3.8 GB for Android.

PC

On PC, you have to boot up the game launcher and click on the “Game Pre-Installation” option on the screen.

After this, the game update should automatically install. Travelers can still play while preloading game resources.

Preloading will take up a certain amount of your network’s bandwidth, so it’s best to make sure you have a good network connection.

Mobile

Mobile players need to log into your account and go to the “Paimon Menu.” Go to settings, then click “Pre-Install Resource Package.”

If this doesn’t work, you may spot the package on the main menu after you’ve logged in. Just click on it to get everything installed.

Travelers in Mobile cannot play the game while they are downloading resources, so it’s best to start the process when you’re taking a break or overnight.

PlayStation

Unfortunately for Playstation travelers, there is no option to preload the game yet. We’ll update if that changes ahead of launch day.

The Playstation Console downloads the game entirely again, to make sure there are no corrupt files. To play Genshin Impact 2.5 Playstation players need to download around 35 GB.
