    “We were so happy to be able to perform at the Genshin Impact concert. 


    Genshin is so popular around the world. I’m surrounded by people who play it, and I promised myself I wouldn’t start because I’d probably get addicted. Eventually, I couldn’t help myself though, and now I’m completely obsessed. 

     

    This performance was completely instrumental, which was a really valuable experience for us.  I hope that everyone can enjoy the world of Genshin through our music!”
