Genshin Impact Fan Art Special Program returns with fifth iteration

The livestream will feature over 15 animated shorts and musical pieces celebrating five years of community, creativity, and shared passion, thanks in part to HoYoverse’s community efforts through HoYoFair. 

The program will showcase sequels to fan-favourite hits as well as new creations from other popular artists, including the series finale of dillongoo’s “If Genshin Had a Cyberpunk Anime: Progenitor”, a new chapter of No_Table’s “Genshin Elemental Warfare”, an animated short from KIERU featuring Yelan, and “Regrator”, a new episode of “Shadows in the Sands” by Subutai, which follows the story of Xbalanque in Ancient Natlan, and the return of the K-pop series with a new boy group joining the lineup. 

Acclaimed singer ReoNa will make their debut in the program to perform Genshin Impact’s official theme song, and the Japanese voice actors for Varesa, Kokomi, Amber, Kirata, and Layla will also appear together in a girl band-themed animation.
