Genshin Impact 3.4 is close to arriving and will introduce some unique characters and a new region for exploration. It will also bring back one of the biggest events, the Lantern Rite festival, to celebrate the Chinese New Year, along with some of the most popular and strongest characters in the game.
After the five-hour maintenance, the new update will go live on January 17 or 18, depending on the region. Genshin Impact has also announced that the v3.4 resource packages are available for pre-installation.
Here is a guide on downloading the files on both PC and mobile devices.
Genshin Impact has a special pre-installation function that allows players to download some of the new resources from the upcoming updates in advance. It speeds up the download process when logging in to the game after the update and saves time.
There are two methods to download the files on mobile platforms like iOS and Android.
The first method is to open the game and wait for the login screen. In the bottom left corner, there will be a pre-installation package option. Tap on it to start downloading the file.

A confirmation tab will open to proceed with the download. The file size for mobile is 2.61GB, so make sure you have enough space.
