Genshin Impact – Behind the Scenes of the Creation of Ruin Monsters

Developer HoYoverse has taken to the official site of Genshin Impact with a new behind the scenes video. This time  the team invites players to witness the arrival of Ruin Monsters from the idea to concept to the final in-game implementation.

“From Ruin Guards that can be seen throughout Teyvat to the majestic and intimidating Aeonblight Drake, these are the war machines left behind by a fallen kingdom.
How did the people of Khaenri’ah design mechanical structures from their imagination without ever seeing a life form on the surface?
Let’s take a look at how the Genshin Impact team brought the Ruin Monsters to life!”

Note: the video is in Chinese, don’t forget to turn on the subtitles should you need them!

Additionally, the developers have also shared another cutscene from the latest Archon Quest. Following the birth of the First Sage of Buer that took on the false god, the team brought us more heartbreak in “A Dream of Falling Branches”, featuring Lesser Lord Kusanali (Nahida) and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata. Note that the video contains spoilers for the latest Archon Quest!

“We ask questions and receive replies in our dreams. When a myriad of dreams descends on the world, then it is time to say goodbye.”
