Genshin Impact / HoYoverse

How to make a Genshin Impact account — HoYoverse ID, server, and backups

Genshin Impact progress lives on a HoYoverse account, and each server region has its own save. Get the account and server right on day one, then keep the details somewhere you will find them after a long break.

How to make a Genshin Impact account and save it

  1. Step 1

    Install Genshin Impact from an official store

    Use the official launcher, PlayStation Store, App Store, or Google Play. Skip sites selling “starter accounts” with rare characters — they get reclaimed.

  2. Step 2

    Create a HoYoverse account

    Register with an email you will keep and a unique password. The same HoYoverse account works for Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero.

  3. Step 3

    Pick your server carefully

    America, Europe, Asia, and TW/HK/MO are separate saves. Pick where you and your friends play; progress does not transfer between servers.

  4. Step 4

    Link your email and console

    In account settings, confirm your email. On PlayStation, link the HoYoverse account so you can play the same save on PC or mobile.

  5. Step 5

    Save it in LoginScout

    Store the HoYoverse email, password, server, and in-game UID on one card. Add a note for which console account is linked.

Why note your server and UID

Four servers, four saves

Signing in to the wrong server looks like a brand-new account. The card tells you which one is yours.

Your UID proves ownership

Support asks for it during recovery. Write it down while you can still see it in game.

One login, several games

HoYoverse accounts cover more than Genshin. Protect it like the hub it is.

Long breaks are normal

People come back months later with no idea which email they used. The vault remembers.

Genshin account shops and rerolled accounts

Buying or selling accounts breaks HoYoverse’s terms, and sellers often recover sold accounts later using the original email.

LoginScout does not sell or generate accounts. It stores the ones you created.
