The “All That Glitters” Genshin Impact event ended recently, but brought forth some very cool updates that remain in the game. With rewards for servers being down, Genshin Impact does something that I’ve rarely ever seen before in a video game. So what all do you need to know about Genshin Impact updates and how they affect you and your game? Well, if that’s a question that you’ve asked yourself at anytime within the last 8 months of the game being available on most platforms, I’ve certainly got you covered. Here’s everything you need to know about how you can update Genshin Impact for the All That Glitters event and the compensation you’ll receive for the servers of the action RPG being unavailable.

How to Update Game Client

While the update for the All That Glitters became available on February 3, 2021, you may not have played the game in quite some time, so here’s a little bit of a refresher on what to do if you need to update your game:

• PC: Close the game, open the Genshin Impact Launcher, and click Update
• iOS: Open the App Store and tap Update
• Android: Open the game and follow the directions on-screen (Alternatively, you may open Google Play and tap Update)
• PS4: Highlight Genshin Impact from the PS4 Home Screen and press the OPTIONS button > Check for Update. (Please do not hesitate to contact Customer Service if you encounter any issues installing the new version. We will do our very best to resolve the issue shortly.)

Compensation

Something that I’ve yet to see in a video game is compensation for server downtime. This is one thing that miHoYo implemented for Genshin Impact and its All That Glitters event. Here’s exactly what the miHoYo website reads when it comes to the terms of this compensation:

• Maintenance Compensation: Primogems x300 (60 Primogems for every hour the servers are down. No change to compensation amount if the update is completed early)

I think this is a fantastic feature that more games should implement, especially if the server downtime typically takes longer than expected. I have not yet seen anything like this when it comes to server downtime compensation and I really hope that more live games such as Destiny 2 see this and start taking some notes to see what they can do to compensate players for not being able to access the game when server maintenance is extended by several hours. However, there are some eligibility requirements players must meet in order to obtain this server downtime compensation.

• Eligibility: All Travelers who have reached Adventure Rank 5 or above by 2/3/21 06:00:00 (UTC+8)
• Our developers will distribute compensation to Travelers via in-game mail within 5 hours after the update maintenance is finished. Please log in and claim it before Version 1.3 ends. The mail will expire after 30 days, so don’t forget to claim the attached compensation in time.
