After fulfilling the abovementioned requisites, head to this link to fill out the 4.4 Beta form.

Once you've completed the process and registered for Genshin Impact's 4.4 Beta test, you will soon get a DM from Paimon upon selection. It is expected that the lucky participants may be able to test the upcoming 5-star Cloud Retainer and the previously leaked 4-star Lion Boy.

However, it is important to note that only a handful of players are picked for testing, and there is a possibility that the applicant may not be selected.
