The popular iOS game Genshin Impact is taking advantage of the iPhone 13 Pro’s higher-refresh ProMotion display with a new 120fps mode, 9to5Mac has reported. On top of the higher framerates, developer miHoYo introduced new areas, events, missions, character banners and more.
Apple previously wrote that all iOS developers must release updates to their apps or games to “unlock” the 120Hz mode by adding .plist file key. As with Android devices, use of the mode will drain your battery quicker, but allow for smoother gaming. 2nd-gen or higher iPad Pros don’t necessarily need an update to support 120Hz refresh rates, but any game would likely require one anyway.
At the WWDC 2021 Apple Design Awards, Genshin Impact won the best game in the visual category, thanks to graphics and artwork that “push the frontier for mobile gaming,” Apple wrote. While the game is also available on Android, PC and Playstation 5, iOS appears to be the first platform to support the higher framerates, according to the Brazilian site Technoblog.
