Genshin Impact is probably the most graphics demanding game that you can run on a mobile device right now, and game developer Mihoyo is taking things to the next level by updating the game to take advantage of Apple’s 120Hz ProMotion display, which means you can now expect even more buttery smooth animations when you play the game on the iPhone 13 Pro and iPad Pro.
With the iPhone 13 Pro now having a high display refresh rate, developers are finally encouraged to update their apps and games to support it as compared to when the ProMotion display first debut on the 2nd Gen iPad Pro, as iPhones are well-loved by most mobile gamers out there due to their display’s great touch sampling rate and graphics performance over most Android phones, we should be seeing more game titles updated along the way which can make the iPhone 13 Pro a champ in mobile gaming.
While Genshin Impact is available on other more powerful platforms such as PC and PlayStation, Mihoyo has yet to update the game on these platforms to support higher frame rates despite having the necessary hardware power to support it, which makes sense as the game is mostly played on smartphones and tablets that Mihoyo decided to prioritize the update on them.
Genshin Impact is awarded the best game in the ‘Visual & Graphics in Games’ category at the Apple Design Awards in WWDC 2021 early this year, it is available as a free download in the app store with in-app purchases, go grab the update if you haven’t.
