Genshin Impact is one of the most popular anime gacha games, with many amazing characters and storylines that can keep players invested. That said, it is also true that the game takes up a lot of space. When the game was released back in 2020, the size of version 1.0 after the installation was only 8 GB, but with new updates and content, the total file size in version 3.6 is over 50 GB.
Some players might want to stop playing the game because of the space it takes. Naturally, there could be other reasons to do so as well. This article will guide players on how to uninstall Genshin Impact from their PC/Laptops.
