Attention all Genshin Impact players in the United States: it's time to verify your age to keep your adventures in MiHoYo's beloved open-world RPG going strong. MiHoYo has announced that due to legal requirements, all US players must complete age verification by July 18th, 2025, to avoid severe consequences.

What are these consequences? If you don't verify your age in time, your account could be deleted. This means losing all your progress, friends, chat records, and you won't even receive notifications to verify after your account is suspended, as the information will be inaccessible by law.

The good news is, you have until July 2025 to get verified. While the exact process of age verification remains unclear—whether it will be a straightforward method or something more intricate—this step is part of broader legal efforts to regulate younger players' access to games like Genshin Impact.

Gacha! You're likely familiar with the term gacha, which stems from gachapon machines. These mechanics in games can indeed be quite lucrative. However, savvy players can still enjoy the game without breaking the bank, especially when compared to the era of loot boxes.

This age verification requirement will be a welcome change for many players and parents, ensuring a safer gaming environment for younger audiences. However, it might be a bit inconvenient for those who don't play regularly. If you're planning a long break from Genshin Impact, make sure to log in and verify your age before the deadline.
