10 Genshin Impact Easter Eggs That are Easy to Miss

Honkai Star Rail Warp: With the release of Fontaine in Genshin Impact, players noticed that in the 4.0 cutscene, there is a piece of paper that enters in a very dramatic fashion. This is the same animation as the warp ticket when you do a summon in Honkai Star Rail.

Barbara's "Let the Wind Lead" Dance: Barbara's idle animation resembles a dance move from the K-pop group Red Velvet's music video for "Russian Roulette."

Xiao's Attack Animations: Xiao's combat animations bear a striking resemblance to the character Vergil from the "Devil May Cry" series.

The Lost Riches Event: During this event, players can find a seelie (floating elemental creature) named "Seelie Celia." This is a reference to the late Filipino actress and singer Celia Rodriguez.

Albedo's Character Design: Albedo, a character in "Genshin Impact," is known for his striking resemblance to the artist Alphonse Mucha's art style, particularly in his outfit.

Venti's Lyre Performance: Venti's (Barbatos) in-game performance of the lyre is reminiscent of the character Apollo from the game "Hades."

Mona's Alchemy Book: Mona, a character who practices astrology and alchemy, has an alchemy book in her house that resembles the "Necronomicon," a fictional grimoire from H.P. Lovecraft's works.

Fischl's Fantasy Persona: Fischl's character is an homage to the "chuunibyou" phenomenon in Japanese culture, where individuals often have delusions of grandeur or possess supernatural abilities. Fischl believes herself to be a princess and a powerful sorceress.

Zhongli's Teapot Scene: In Zhongli's character quest, there is a scene where he interacts with a pet turtle. This scene is reminiscent of a similar scene in the Studio Ghibli film "My Neighbor Totoro."
