Xingqiu's birthday is on 9 October 2021, and Genshin Impact players can expect to get some free gifts on it.Birthdays in Genshin Impact are a simple affair. Every character is born on a specific day, on which the player will receive mail. It doesn't matter if they own the character; the only requirement to get that email is to log in on the day of that character's birthday.Xingqiu's gifts include one All-Delicacy Parcel and ten Silk Flowers.Xingqiu's birthday in Genshin Impact: Date, gifts, and more detailsXingqiu's birthday gift and message (Image via Genshin Impact)Xingqiu is a popular 4-star Hydro Sword user; hence, some players might enjoy this occasion. In 2021, the text and gifts in his birthday mail differ from last year.Both years, for example, gave players an All-Delicacy Parcels, but the 2020 mail came with three Teachings of Ballad instead of ten Silk Flowers.The 2020 birthday mail was also concise in text. In the 2021 mail, Xingqiu fears that the player might accidentally throw away the letter if it was on the bottom of the snack box.Genshin Impact players will get the free rewards when it's October 9 in their timezone, so it will differ from server to server.Xingqiu's birthday giftThe two gifts Xingqiu bestows upon the player (Image via Genshin Impact)All-Delicacy Parcels is his special dish. It provides superior healing compared to the Crystal Shrimp it's based on (including the Delicious variant).

Genshin Impact players can get the recipe from the Wanmin Restaurant for 2,500 (provided that they're Adventure Rank 20+).They can use ten Silk Flowers for both Xingqiu and Hu Tao's Ascensions.Genshin Impact players wishing Xingqiu happy birthdayHina💜@hina030_Xingqiu is the first genshin impact character to have his birthday a second time !9:51 AM · Oct 8, 2021996Xingqiu is the first genshin impact character to have his birthday a second time ! https://t.co/Y1hIxRoSdrXingqiu is the first Genshin Impact character to hit a second birthday.
