How To Delete Your Genshin Impact Account: PS4, PC, Mobile steps explained


Genshin Impact has to be one of the best free-to-play games available right now.

It gives fans a ton of content to play through and you don’t even need to pay for anything if you don’t care that much about the characters; though if you’re a fan of this game you probably do care about all of those waifus and husbandos, so be prepared to pay up.

It’s kind of amazing how the game went from being seen as a Breath of the Wild rip-off to a title Nintendo fans really want on their Nintendo Switch so it will be interesting to see how many systems this game will end up appearing on, especially since we’re at the beginning of a new generation of consoles.

That said some people are not so keen, so if you're wondering how to delete your account (which is surprisingly quite hard), then read on...

How To Delete Your Genshin Impact Account

There comes a time when people get tired of playing Genshin Impact, and naturally for some that means there are people wondering how to delete their Genshin Impact account.

Unfortunately, it’s not as easy as just deleting your data, as players have to actually email miHoYo to request that they have their account deleted.

If that wasn't hard enough, PlayStation owners will have an even harder time deleting their accounts since it’s tied to their PSN accounts, so they might not even be able to delete their account.

If you really want to delete your Genshin Impact progress, message miHoYo on either genshin_cm@mihoyo.com or genshin_cs@mihoyo.com with the email that’s connected to your miHoYo account.

Write down your reason for deleting this account, along with your player name so they know that you’re serious and be patient.

We say be patient because, according to the developer, it can take two months or more for your account to get deleted.

For those wondering why miHoYo made it so hard for players to delete their Genshin Impact account, it’s because they know that players will delete their data to start again so they can have a better chance at getting new characters. 

Genshin Impact is available now on PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices.
