How does Genshin Impact make money? Genshin Impact is free-to-play (F2P) and is mainly monetized through gacha game mechanics through which players can obtain new characters and weapons.

In Genshin Impact, you’ll start out with just a single character, the Traveler. But over time, you’ll work to build out your roster with more characters, each with their own unique abilities.

Upon hitting Adventurer Rank 20, you’ll unlock Genshin Impact’s Battle Pass. The Battle Pass uses a separate leveling system that requires you to complete simple daily and weekly quests.
