Anime studio ufotable's adaptation of Genshin Impact may not happen due to reports revealing HoYoverse's plans to self-produce animations for its games, casting doubt on the collaboration. HoYoverse, the developer behind Genshin Impact and other successful games, seeks to boost Shanghai's film industry with its properties. Despite initial plans for ufotable to adapt Genshin, HoYoverse's intentions to create its own animated films may lead to the project's cancellation. The company's experience in multimedia promotion and previous forays into anime make it capable of producing feature films based on its games. While there is no official confirmation of the ufotable collaboration's status, it is possible that HoYoverse is looking to create its movies independently. The company's ambitions and support from Shanghai's government suggest that Genshin and Honkai adaptations are likely on the horizon.
