Animate Will Open Genshin Impact Limited Shop in Japan

More new Genshin Impact merchandise will appear at Animate. The Japanese store chain specializing in anime and game character goods announced that it will open a shop section dedicated to Genshin Impact from late May to early July 2022.

The newest Genshin Impact merchandise lineup will feature Inazuma characters like Raiden Shogun, Kujo, and Kokomi. Animate will also resell merchandise from previous physical events, such as the 2021 concert and the Shanghai festival.

For every 1,100 yen (~$8) made from Genshin Impact-related item purchases, Animate will hand over a free postcard containing one of twelve characters chosen at random.

The seventh floor of the Animate Akihabara store building will exclusively sell these Genshin Impact items for the duration of the limited shop event. The store chain will also set up support stores selling some of the goods at several branches in Tokyo and other cities like Sapporo, Sendai, Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka. The items will also be available on Animate’s web store, but it will only process the shipments after the event ends on July 3, 2022.

Genshin Impact is available on the PS5, PS4, PC, iOS, and Android devices. A new content update that raises the game’s version to 2.7 will appear on May 31, 2022. Animate will open a store dedicated to the game in Akihabara from May 28 to July 3, 2022.
