Genshin Impact's Days On PS4 Are Numbered, MiHoYo Confirms

Wed, 08/06/2025 - 22:50

Genshin Impact developer MiHoYo has announced that it'll be ending support for the game on PS4 this year, and it'll be completely shut down in 2026 on that platform. Citing "limitations related to hardware performance" as one of the reasons for discontinuing the game, MiHoYo added that the requirements for the mobile versions of the game will also necessitate increased power on iOS and Android devices.

"Due to limitations related to hardware performance and platform application size, we will be discontinuing support and updates for Genshin Impact on PS4 in future versions," the studio explained in a blog post. The PS4 version of Genshin Impact will be removed from the PlayStation Network on September 10, but if you'd previously downloaded the game, you'll still be able to re-download it.

Starting February 25, 2026, all in-game purchases for the PS4 edition will be removed from the PlayStation Store, and all update support for Genshin Impact will end on April 8, 2026. This will result in players no longer being able to log in to the game on PS4. MiHoYo says it will start reminding players of this change later this year. As for the mobile versions of Genshin Impact, MiHoYo says those devices will need to meet these updated requirements:

Amazing Spider-Man 4K Double-Feature Blu-Ray Discounted on Amazon

With a new Spider-Man film currently in production, now is a great time to catch up on the older movies starring everyone's favorite web-slinger. Over at Amazon, you can get a new 4K bundle of the two Amazing Spider-Man movies that starred Andrew Garfield as the iconic hero for just $29.49 (was $50). This is now in stock, and it comes with digital streaming codes for each film as well.

The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2 Bundle (4K) $29.49 (was $50)

Following the release of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3 in 2007, the superhero franchise went into hibernation for a few years. The hiatus ended with the release of The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012, and it was followed by a sequel in 2014. The native 4K (2160p) resolution for the Spidey movies are top-notch, and for audio, the discs offer Dolby Atmos support that works really well through a surround system.

The only catch here is that you won't get much in terms of bonus materials. There is a cast-and-crew photo tab option on both discs and "categorized" moments you can skip to, but otherwise, you'll need to grab the standard Blu-ray releases of these Spider-Man movies to access special features.

Overall, these Spider-Man movies are okay at best, but they don't reach the same groundbreaking heights as the Sam Raimi trilogy starring Tobey Maguire or the recent Spidey flicks with Tom Holland under the mask, which is strengthened by its MCU connections. The Amazing Spider-Man is a passable retelling of Peter Parker's origin story with some baffling deviations from the established story, while The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is an overstuffed attempt at setting up a Sinister Six movie.

What the movies did have going for them was Garfield's portrayal of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, plus an amazing supporting cast that featured Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Martin Sheen, Sally Field, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, and several other great actors.

If you're looking to flesh out your collection, there are plenty of other Spider-Man Blu-rays you can grab right now at a discounted price. There's a 4K bundle deal on the Sam Raimi-directed Spider-Man films for $46 (was $76) or you can grab a standard Blu-ray bundle of the recent MCU Spider-Man movies for $26 (was $56). The two animated Spider-Verse movies are also highly recommended, and you can grab a Collector's Edition Blu-ray of them for $84 (was $97). Lego is also releasing a new series of minifigures themed around Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on September 1, and these are now available to preorder.

What he discovers is that supernatural creatures called Hollow Walkers have infested the country. Although the drone can help Remi defend himself, he'll primarily use melee weapons, including swords, polearms, and axes.
