Genshin Impact's world keeps growing, but phone storage isn't. Upgrading phones is expensive, so HoYoverse added a feature for mobile players to delete old quest data (but not PC yet!). This frees up space but limits revisiting areas later. Ideally, a platform-agnostic solution would let all players manage storage effectively. To get ready for future updates and new content, those who need more storage space can find out how to delete past quest resources and the game's file size in Genshin Impact here.

How To Delete Past Quest Resources In Genshin Impact

Please follow these instructions to delete past quest resources in Genshin Impact:

  1. Tap on Paimon's icon in the top left corner of the screen to open the menu.
  2. Select "Settings".
  3. Choose "Resources".
  4. Enable the "Quest Resource Management" option under the "Past Quest Resource Management" tab.
  5. If available, tap "Uninstall" to remove past quest resources.

Please note that Genshin Impact will only display past quest resources that you have already completed, and they will no longer be stored on your device. This means if you start a new account that hasn't played these quests yet, you will need to download the data again. However, you can reinstall past quest resources in Genshin Impact easily by following the previous steps, but on the final step, select "Download Resources Again" instead.

Caution: Some players have reported that the redownload prompt continues even when they switch back to their main account. Therefore, it's advisable to use this feature only if you do not intend to play on a secondary account.

How To Reduce File Size In Genshin Impact

Removing past quest resources can help free up storage space, but because this option isn't accessible on all platforms, players might seek alternative methods to reduce file size in Genshin Impact. Luckily, another effective strategy involves managing language resources. Follow these steps to delete Voice-Over files:

  1. Open the menu.
  2. Go to Settings.
  3. Select Language.
  4. Tap  Manage Voice-Over Files.
  5. Tap Uninstall to remove any languages you're not using.

If players are really in need of space, another method they can consider is uninstalling the game and then reinstalling it. This typically helps to free up storage.
