Genshin Impact Begins Age Verification for US Users

Attention all Genshin Impact players in the United States: it's time to verify your age to keep your account active. MiHoYo, the developer behind the beloved open-world RPG, has announced that all US players must complete age verification by July 18th, 2025, to comply with new legal requirements.

What happens if you don't verify your age? The consequences are serious. Your account could be deleted, along with all your friends and chat records. Once your account is suspended, you won't receive any notifications to verify your age because the account information will become inaccessible by law.

The good news is, you have until July 2025 to get verified. While the exact method of age verification hasn't been detailed yet, it's clear that this is a significant step towards ensuring compliance with regulations aimed at protecting younger players from games like Genshin Impact.

The term 'gacha' might remind you of gachapon machines, and just like those, Genshin Impact's gacha system can be quite the money sink. However, savvy players can still enjoy the game without breaking the bank, especially when compared to the era of loot boxes.

This change will be a relief for many players and parents concerned about the game's impact on younger audiences. However, it might be a bit inconvenient for those who don't play regularly. If you're planning an extended break from Genshin Impact, make sure to log in and verify your age before the deadline.
