Genshin Impact University Invitational: Event explained and more

The Genshin Impact University Invitational UK was announced today, and it is a massive competition that will take place throughout the United Kingdom. It will be hosted by GinxTV and allow students from across the country to join together and form teams to compete for a huge cash prize.

The first-place prize will be £11,000, making this competition unmissable.

Gamers from universities throughout the UK can apply together to form teams to compete in this unique event. They'll need to first meet some qualifications to register for the competition:

  • Each team member must be a student or a graduate of a university in the United Kingdom.
  • Each team member must be at least 18 years of age.
  • Each team must be composed of one team captain and two members, and the captain must be a current student of their representative organization.
  • Each team is restricted to one alumnus player.
  • Nine main universities are being represented, and players from any outside colleges may join the Social Team.

miHoYo has partnered with nine prominent universities throughout the UK, and players from any of these institutions can apply directly as an Official University Team, while others will need to apply as a Social Team. These gamers will compete in various events, including boss battle challenges and collection missions, while also being subject to fan voting and popularity contests.

Gamers who perform well in the competition are entitled to amazing prizes, though they'll need to get through several challenging stages to win. Here's what the schedule is like for anyone applying to this competition:

  • Online Team Registration and Selection: May 9 to May 16
  • Qualifiers for Local University Divisions: May 16 to May 20
  • Finals live from London: May 28

The teams who make it to the end will be able to win up to £11,000, making the struggle worth it. Luckily, for those who don't make it to the top, there are some great rewards for places 2-9:

  • 9-4: 500 Primogems and some Genshin Impact merchandise
  • Popularity Award: £1000 split between the team and 600 Primogems for each member
