As a MMORPG with a well-developed social system, FFXIV naturally provides you with a variety of interesting emotes and actions in the game, allowing you to interact with your game friends through them, so that you can have a chance to relax after intense battles.
Recently, a new emote was launched in the game, called Pose of the Unbound, but it is more like an action than an emote, and if you often watch animation and comics, you will find that the design inspiration of this emote should come from a classic comic: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Based on this, we will speculate why the game chose Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure as the emote design idea, and also introduce you how to get this emote in FFXIV.
This is a comic work that began in 1987 and was serialized by cartoonist Hirohiko Araki in the Japanese comic magazine Weekly Shonen Jump. It was transferred to the monthly manga magazine Ultra Jump in 2005 and has been serialized to this day. Fans also refer to it as “Jojo”.
The entire plot of the comic can be divided into 9 parts, each with a new protagonist, but the common point of these protagonists is that they all have the nickname “Jojo”. So far, 6 of the 9 parts have been animated, and 1 has a live-action movie.
Because of its unique art style, frequent references to Western pop music and fashion trends, Jojo has become one of the best-selling, most iconic and influential comic series in history. Although it has only become popular outside of Japan in recent years, it has to be admitted that it has quickly become a classic work in the hearts of anime fans around the world.
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure became popular in Europe and the United States mainly because the subtle weird elements in the comics brought many popular emoticons, the most famous of which is “Jojo Pose”, one of which is to put your hands in front of your face-which is also the main inspiration for Final Fantasy 14’s new emote Pose of the Unbound, and the official website of the game has also confirmed this.
At present, Final Fantasy 14 is quite popular among MMORPG players in different regions of the world, so if it wants to incorporate some interesting online memes into the game to make you laugh, the inspiration of the memes should be widely known and related to other games or virtual works such as animation, to ensure that most players can understand it.
Obviously, the popularity of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and the fun of “Jojo pose” can fully meet the above requirements, and maybe this is just the first step for FFXIV-if the new emote Pose of the Unbound is well received, perhaps in the future the game will also plan to carry out more formal and larger-scale crossover events with Jojo.
The first thing you need to know is that this emote was added to Final Fantasy 14 in the patch 7.16 update. The update highlights the final questline in Dawntrail character quest series, but to access it, you’ll first need to complete Dawntrail’s main scenario quest and five character questlines, which are:
Once you’ve made sure you’ve earned the qualifications to start the quest, head to Xbalyav Ty’e in Tuliyollal (coordinates X:12.4, Y:14.7) and find the various NPCs for the corresponding questline to start the quest - in fact, this is the same place you previously visited in the restaurant downstairs where you meet Wuk Lamat during the main story quest of Dawntrail.
While you should be rewarded with FF14 Gil for completing the above quest, it’s not enough to get the new emote - you’ll also need to complete the level 100 Picking Up the Torch quest, which you can start by finding Rral Majun, also in Tuliyollal, standing near the bar. You’ll then have a conversation with her and a nearby Br’uk Evu, which will lead you to learn that Apyaahi, the founder of Passage of the Unbound, is looking for a new leader for her dubious organization.
Your job from then on is to pose as one of Apyaahi’s potential candidates and learn her true intentions in order to complete another level 100 quest, Imposing Views, which will reward you with a gift box that you can open to receive Pose of the Unbound emote.
In addition to the quests related to the new emote, it’s also recommended that you try to complete the rest of the final character questline, as this will earn you “Bright Bustle” Orchestrion Roll and “Sweet Justice” title.
After the above introduction, I believe that you have not only mastered the method of obtaining new emotes in FF14 but also become more interested in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. In fact, it is totally worth your appreciation. Thank you for reading.
S-Game recently released a demo video about the boss battle, which aroused the strong interest of all players. Below I will share some information about Phantom Blade Zero with you based on this video.
The conventional offensive means of the game are the light attack and heavy attack of the main weapon. Taking PlayStation controller as an example, the corresponding buttons for light and heavy attacks are the square button and the triangle button. Players can use the combination of light and heavy attacks to perform combos, cause damage, and reduce the enemy’s health.
There are two main defensive means in the game:
L1 defense is divided into continuous defense and perfect defense. Press and hold the L1 button. The character will take a defensive posture and defend against the enemy’s attack at the cost of consuming Sha-Chi. If the protagonist’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, there will be a big stiffness, and he will be unable to move for a short time, allowing the enemy to attack.
In contrast, pressing L1 at the moment before the enemy attacks can achieve perfect defense, which will not only not consume your own Sha-Chi, but will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi. If the timing is not accurate and perfect defense is not achieved, a certain amount of Sha-Chi will be consumed. Perfection can be judged by the orange sparks of the weapon collision during defense. If the enemy’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, of course, it will enter a big stiffness, and this is the best time for the protagonist to attack.
The slide dodge of the R1 button is a relatively safe defense method in the game. It does not consume any resources and can handle almost all attacks of the enemy in the game.
Among the many enemy attack methods, there are two special attacks that require extra care, namely red light attack and blue light attack.
It is not difficult to see that the core combat system of the game is centered around Sha-Chi.
Different from the defensive system in Sekiro, Sha-Chi is both a defensive resource and an offensive resource. The player’s Sha-Chi can be used for defense or to launch a heavy attack with the triangle button to perform a combo. The enemy can also defend your combo, but it will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi.
In summary, the most basic combat strategy of the game is to use L1 to defend perfectly and use the triangle button to perform a heavy attack at the right time, while guarding against the enemy’s undefended red light attack and using R1 to resolve it. For players with a basic understanding of action games, the basic combat mode can be mastered in about ten minutes.
This main weapon is actually the two weapons held by the protagonist in both hands. The short knife in the left hand is Crimson Viper, which is mainly flexible and maneuverable, mainly used in light attacks; the long sword in the right hand is White Serpent, which has large and long attack movements and is mainly used in heavy attacks.
The biggest feature of White Serpent & Crimson Viper is flexibility and maneuverability, and it can execute enemies from a distance.
In the first stage of the boss battle, the player needs to fight seven enemies at the same time. Obviously, the chief is our main target.
If you only attack the chief, you will find that when his health drops to a certain value, a companion will use silk thread to replenish his health. At this moment, you realize that you also need to reduce the number of enemies on the battlefield as soon as possible, and don’t give the chief a chance to recover.
The snake-shaped long sword White Serpent is swung wide, and the action often rotates in a circle, which is very suitable for dealing with multiple enemies. More importantly, the short knife Crimson Viper can trigger the execution action at a distance without getting close to the body, which is very useful for quickly clearing the field.
This weapon’s combo often has a small stiffness when closing the move, and it can stop at any time. When attacking, you can immediately press the perfect defense when you close your hand, and the attack and defense switch is extremely fast.
The feel of Soft Snake Sword is completely different from that of White Serpent & Crimson Viper. When you first use it, it is just like it looks, soft and weak, with low damage and poor ability to reduce Sha-Chi.
The hidden mechanism of Soft Snake Sword is: after holding down L1 to defend, press the triangle button to initiate a new parry action. If you have resources (the points below the weapon icon), consuming one grid of energy to parry the enemy’s blue light attack perfectly can almost instantly clear the enemy’s Sha-Chi value and derive a new combo move.
This demonstration is one-to-many. In action games, one-to-many is not a well-designed battle scene, or it is not compatible. Friends who often play action games must have a deep understanding: the one-to-many in Ninja Gaiden is very fun, but the one-to-one boss battle is not so refreshing; the one-to-one duel in Sekiro is very exciting, but it is easy to be killed by attacks from all sides when it is one-to-many. One-to-one and one-to-many are not easy to balance.
Just like in action movies, if the villains rush forward, two fists cannot beat four hands. Even if the protagonist has a lot of skills, he will probably lose. If the villains stand aside and watch, it is too fake, and anyone can see that it is acting.
The soldiers can neither rush in all at once and beat the protagonist so that he can’t fight back, nor can they just stand by and watch indifferently. These seven brothers have provided a new solution.
When there are many people on the scene, the seven will frequently set up formations and attack together. This not only resets the battlefield situation and prevents the player from being surrounded for a long time, but also gives the player a good time to cause damage, because this move is easy to resolve and can immediately make a set of heavy damage.
When there are not many people on the scene, his companions will take the initiative to adjust their position, surround the protagonist, and attack in turn. This method seems to surround the player, but because the attack and defense speed of the game is very fast, the enemy’s movement time is completely enough for the player to deal with the enemy in front of him, which actually gives the player time to defeat them one by one.
At the end of the demonstration video, the protagonist uses a giant axe to end the chief. It should be noted here that when this giant axe is activated, the protagonist is not invincible and will stop moving when hurt. The video demonstrator is obviously very familiar with this move, so he confidently uses this move to end the battle.
Phantom Blade Zero will announce its release date this year, and you must be impatient! Let us wait for new news about this game together.
Dear Diablo fans, I believe you have also paid attention to the recent information about the upcoming Path of Exile 2 Early Access. However, many Diablo 4 players refuse to consider trying it. This is largely because POE 2 is basically the opposite of Diablo 4, whether it is the extremely scary game atmosphere, the convoluted main story, or the extremely difficult endgame adjustment that will make you cry for the precious world of Sanctuary.
So what about you? Have you considered giving up everything you love in Diablo 4 to play POE 2? With this in mind, we are here to discuss all the reasons why you absolutely hate Path of Exile 2. Buckle up and let’s go!
First, let’s talk about freedom. In Diablo 4, you have a nice and neat skill tree, you can randomly select some abilities, maybe swap out one or two Legendary Aspects, and then enjoy the game. Your build is simple, clean, and easy to manage.
But Path of Exile 2 is the exact opposite. GGG doesn’t believe in simplicity, they give you a huge passive skill tree, which looks complicated and difficult to manage. You have to spend more time to understand and master it to ensure that the build you create is not a poor character in the end. If you are willing to challenge the difficulty, then good luck.
Let’s start talking about Skill Gem System. The developers of POE always seem to think about how to make the skills as complex as possible. For example, add some Support Gems to it, mix them, and link them. This means that your build is either brilliant or a complete disaster. However, the latter is often more likely.
If you have enjoyed the game experience in Diablo 4 where you can run around, slam buttons, and then everything will die, you may be disappointed in POE 2. Path of Exile 2 wants you to use your brain. In PoE 2, you need to plan your build, consider your resistance, balance your equipment, and think about strategy. Here, if you are not fully prepared for the battle, you are dead. If you don’t check your elemental resistance, then you’re going to have a hard time surviving enemy fireballs.
You know what the good thing about Diablo 4 is? You can get some loot here and there, especially some common items, which appear very frequently. But in PoE 2, you can say goodbye to that simplicity. You have to stay focused at all times and check every item carefully. Do you think upgrading your equipment in Diablo 4 is also a challenge? In PoE 2, it is no exaggeration to say that you need a doctorate in Alchemy and Suffering to understand how to make and earn PoE2 Currency.
And in Diablo 4, because it is like a guided tour through hell, you have clear quest markers, a useful map, and everything points in the right direction, which means you never feel lost. With Path of Exile 2, they just throw you into this huge and dangerous world. There is no hand-holding guidance here. You need to rely on your wisdom to figure out where to go and what to do next. They want you to explore and discover things on your own.

If you’ve made it to Diablo 4’s endgame, congratulations, you can now auto-play through Nightmare Dungeons, Pit and Helltides. But in PoE 2, the endgame is a whole different kind of difficulty.
You don’t just go through the same dungeons repeatedly, now you have to navigate the map, mod them, and face off against stronger and tougher bosses who don’t care about your easy farming sessions in the endgame. It’s almost like Path of Exile 2 wants you to keep challenging yourself, while the endgame is designed to break you. It’s like an endless maze of pain, with layers of bosses, modifiers, and mechanics that make your head spin. You need to keep grinding, optimizing, and pushing your build to the limit.
And what about those bosses in PoE 2? They’re not the friendly dungeon bosses from Diablo 4 that politely signal an attack. These guys have a million mechanics that will kill you in one blow if you blink.
But if that’s not your thing, maybe sticking with Diablo 4 is a better option, as its endgame is more like a casual Sunday stroll.
Let’s be honest, one of the best things about Diablo 4 was Cosmetics Shop. As long as you had enough Diablo 4 Gold, you could dress up your character with different accessories while still smashing demons. But in POE 2, all you get is a stash tab to store your massive loot collection and equally awesome cosmetics. But where’s the fun in that? No pay-to-win shortcuts? No boosters to finish the game quickly? It’s boring.
Finally, let’s talk about content. Now, Diablo 4 is a great game that’s simple and easy to manage. But the different expansions, leagues, events, and systems in POE make it hard to keep up. Do you really want to be bombarded with content updates and new leagues that completely change the way you play? That’s just too much work.
Overall, POE 2 is just too complex for most players. Too much to think about, loot management, and gameplay. Everything is simple in Diablo 4. Not only is the world easy to navigate, but the game will hold your hand and guide you step by step to the end. Unless, of course, you are really looking for a real challenge, a game with depth, complexity, and constant updates to keep it fresh. If you can really handle it, we also look forward to seeing you in Wraeclast.
With the growing development of the video game industry, competition has become increasingly fierce. In order to better attract players, more and more game producers have begun to focus on developing related content other than the game itself, and music is undoubtedly a good direction for publicity and development.
For an excellent game, high-quality soundtracks are essential. Good background music with appropriate insertion timing can allow players to experience a more realistic and immersive gaming experience during the game, thereby further enhancing the texture of the game.
Usually, the larger the scale and the wider the content of MMO games, the more attention will be paid to the production of soundtracks, and the same is true for Elden Ring. With the release of Shadow of the Erdtree DLC in June this year, the game has gained popularity again, and many people have noticed that the game also has a concert tour this year.
Compared with experiencing music during the game, or enjoying the game music alone through a music app with headphones, it is obviously a new experience to feel the performance of the game music brought by the orchestra and choir in a grand concert hall.
Accompanied by the moving performance of the orchestra, perhaps the players as listeners will not only be intoxicated by it but also remember their past efforts to fight for some Elden Ring Runes in the game. After all, music is one of the most moving and awakening art carriers in the world.
There is no doubt that this concert tour called Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure not only brings excellent music experience to players and listeners but also carries out an elegant promotion for the game itself. This makes more people curious about this game and the story in the game.
Based on this, we will introduce you to some information about Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure and its significance to Elden Ring.
The tour of Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure is actually an immersive concert global tour jointly organized by the game developer and Overlook Events. The first one was held in Paris, France on Saturday, January 13, 2024, and was conducted by Adrian Ronda Sampayo.
The second one was held on April 28 at Royal Albert Hall in London, England, performed by Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra and Crouch End Festival Chorus. After that, the concert came to Asia, with 4 tours in Thailand and Singapore in May and June, respectively. It is reported that the tour will also come to Germany in 2025 to continue the music performance journey of Elden Ring.
Since its release in 2022, Elden Ring has gained high popularity in a short period, becoming one of the most memorable game works in recent years, and even forming a phenomenal scale of video game popularity. And was named the best game of 2022 at the famous and prestigious game awards ceremony.
This tour sets Lands Between in game as the background of the music. This is a vast country once ruled by Queen Marika the Eternal. There are many biomes, underground cities, and floating ruins. No matter where the player is in Lands Between, he can always see the glittering Erdtree.
At the concert, philharmonic orchestra and choir brought epic music works full of the magnificent and ancient temperament of Lands Between to everyone present. The audience also took this opportunity to relive the experiences of Tarnished’s efforts to restore the balance of Circle of Eden.
In fact, the main story of the game is the core of the experience of this tour concert. The concert combines a detailed storyline, the moving performances of the orchestra and choir, and the original surround lighting design and sound effects on the stage to bring a rare immersive game music experience to all the audience who came to the scene.
The concert’s repertoire covers almost all the music related to the main bosses and endings in the game. On the scene, every time the orchestra cheered for all the hard-won victories in the game through performance, the audience would find this experience even more unforgettable.
As an audience member who came to the scene, whether you have played this game or not, you will definitely be able to feel the majesty of the world of Elden Ring through the story behind the music presented. And the epic feeling brought by the orchestra will further enhance the depth of the game story.
Previously, Final Fantasy series of games had toured the world with Distant World series of music works, and Sonic and Kingdom Hearts also held exclusive game concerts. The emergence of these performances shows that holding concerts has become a fashion in the gaming industry.
Therefore, as a popular game in the past two years, whether it is to keep up with the trend or to further increase its popularity, the concert tour has brought considerable benefits to Elden Ring. The significance of holding a concert is far more than simply reproducing the music in the game. In fact, it is itself a grand event worth seeing.
In addition, not all game soundtracks can withstand the reproduction of orchestral music, but for Elden Ring, the noble and moving characteristics of orchestral music have become a better carrier of its music. On the stage, the repeated boss battles have become movie epics, and the special camera angles make each battle more vivid.
The moving music makes Elden Ring series more appealing as a game, and the richness and depth of the game story can also allow the producers to create more and better soundtracks. It can be said that the two complement each other. While playing a promotional role, this concert tour undoubtedly makes the combination of the two closes, making the game also a praised musical work.
Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred DLC live-action cinema showcase Neyrelle’s danger-packed journey into Nahantu along with her struggle with the power of Soulstone.
This gripping visual masterpiece is directed by Jon Watts, the mastermind behind three Spider-Man movies, Wolfs and more. With his outstanding directing ability, unique understanding of film art and profound grasp of game content, Jon Watts perfectly reproduces the wonderful plot in the game and brings a visual feast to players and audiences.
At the same time, Latin Grammy Award-winning artist Camila Cabello sang the theme song of the movie “Behind Blue Eyes”, adding another layer of powerhouse vocals. They undoubtedly provide excellent help for the game promotion. If this has caught your attention, then prepare some Diablo 4 Gold and embark on your game journey in an instant!
General manager of Diablo Rod Fergusson said that working with the extraordinary talents of Jon Watts and Camila Cabello brought the entire world of Vessel of Hatred to life, which features a world overwhelmed with darkness and intrigue.
The video mainly uses a mix of live-action and CGI to portray the expansion’s main content in a fresh new way, which primarily showcases Neyrelle encountering a troublesome run-in with a Prime Evil.
We see Neyrelle floating on a river in Nahantu, while a group of Spiritborn are attacked by hordes of demons and cast animal-like abilities to fight back. And showed four animal Spirit Guardians - Jaguar, Gorilla, Eagle and Centipede that Spiritborn summons and channels.
When invited to direct this live-action trailer, Watts said that he was a loyal fan of Diablo and had played this game since he was a teenager. He emphasized the connection between the entire game and his personal life, and would go all out to complete this glorious and arduous task.
Watts has always been successful in filmmaking with his dynamic storytelling and visual talent. By the combination of stunning cinematography and intense action scenes, he successfully presented the immersive world of Sanctuary to a wide audience.
Watts emphasized the creepy atmosphere in the trailer. It played a pretty good promotional effect for Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred DLC.
“Behind Blue Eyes” is produced by Noah Ehler and Jasper Harris and recorded at Interscope Studios (Santa Monica, CA), Eggscellent (Los Angeles, CA).
Camila Cabello brings “Behind Blue Eyes” to Sanctuary in a fresh way. The song retains the wonderful lyrics of the original song and re-arranges it to make it more accompanied by the dark tones of Diablo.
This arrangement perfectly reproduces Neyrelle’s state of mind in Vessel of Hatred and successfully evokes a lot of resonance.
As the trailer kicks off Neyrelle’s Vessel of Hatred story, Cabello sets the emotional tone of the entire film with a darker expression. Cabello told Rolling Stone that she really likes the image of Neyrelle and wants to convey Neyrelle’s mood and feelings through her singing, including her paranoia in the first place, and her fighting spirit and brave mentality.
Those cherished qualities have contributed to the main tone of the movie. And perfectly captures Neyrelle’s emotional turmoil and inner struggle.
“Behind Blue Eyes” cover shares the same sad mentality of the Magic City Edition of her album C, XOXO. Cabello said that she is a person who likes to escape from the real world. When reading the novel, she wants to integrate into the environment of the story. Vessel of Hatred DLC also evokes her desire to accompany Neyrelle on an adventure.
When talking about the feeling of singing the cover song, Cabello said that she was very honored and excited. The cooperation with Diablo also brought her a lot of attention and hot spots. Although the lyrics of the complete song seem very dark and melancholy, it is not difficult for her.
As for players familiar with Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred DLC, the lyrics will surely reflect the underlying meaning of the lyrics.
The lyrics of “Behind Blue Eyes” reflect Neyrelle’s need to fight despite being exhausted, which is in some ways a reflection of real life.
The lyrics and tune perfectly blend the gloomy tone of Vessel Of Hatred DLC, representing everything Neyrelle has been through, and also driving the subsequent storyline to a climax. Although the length of the video is relatively short, it successfully captures the audience’s attention, and many players said they can’t wait to start their adventure.

Among all the MOBA games currently on the market, League Of Legends is undoubtedly the most successful and familiar one to global players. It has received numerous praises for its excellent game Mechanics and Hero Character design.
In addition, League Of Legends also launched a mobile version in 2020: League Of Legends Wild Rift. Compared with traditional gaming platforms, the portability of mobile phones has further broadened the audience of the game, and players can get some Wild Cores to advance the game simply through League Of Legends Wild Rift Top Up.
This not only made the series of games gain popularity again but also attracted more attention to a grand related Event. That is the League Of Legends World Championship. This LOL official Event has been held since 2011 and is now the 14th.
In this year’s competition, two Teams from China and South Korea, BLG (Bilibili Gaming) and T1, defeated their opponents WBG (Weibo Gaming) and Gen. G in their respective Semifinals. Therefore, they were the winners of Semifinals and will start Final competition of the year in London, UK on November 2, 2024.
Before the start of this exciting and tense period of Final, let’s take a look at the wonderful performances of the two Teams in Semifinals.
Before the start of this Semifinal, many players and viewers believed that BLG was the winner for 2024 League Of Legends World Championship Semifinals, and final result proved that their speculation was not groundless.
Bilibili Gaming proved the strength of the Team through three exciting game matches, and Finally defeated WBG and won the ticket to Finals. This is undoubtedly a successful revenge for the failure of 2023 Semifinals.
In this game, WBG, as a strong Team, certainly showed their best performance. But perhaps it was the revenge that gave BLG more motivation, so that they could always catch WBG’s minor mistakes and Fight back.
In the end, all the slight mistakes of WBG made BLG make a powerful blow at Final critical moment and won ultimate victory. But Scores of the two Teams were very close for most of the game, and only in the second half did BLG gradually gain the upper hand.
Because of many confrontations, in fact, the players of WBG and BLG already know each other very well. And this year BLG won two LPL games (League Of Legends Pro League).
The two Teams played three games this summer, and BLG won all of them. In the spring, BLG and WBG only played once during the group stage, and BLG won that game 2:0. In addition, WBG did not qualify for the 2024 Mid-Season Invitational, while BLG entered Finals.
As two powerful Teams from South Korea, T1 and Gen. G have faced off against each other many times in various League Of Legends Events.
In the past, players who have been following the game will find that T1 usually has a hard time at the beginning of the season and struggles in the Korean League. But if you look at the situation on a global scale, they are unstoppable. Perhaps it is because the strength of all the domestic Teams is very good.
Therefore, if Gen. G wants to defeat T1, it will also mean hard Battles to do so. And for the audience, it means watching many exciting games and having an unprecedented viewing experience!
In this Semifinal, the fourth game was obviously the most exciting. In the first few minutes, the game was already very serious for Gen. G, because they lost two Flashes in Bot Lane, which made the start difficult. T1 started well and Faker took First Blood.
The game was long, but T1 dominated almost the entire game, with Gen. G falling behind by a large margin. Lehends struggled throughout Semifinal and were caught multiple times, and Zeus’ Double Kill was a tremendous boost for T1.
At 20 minutes into this game, the game looked promising for them. Gen. G had to regroup and focus. In the top lane, Gen. G needed to do everything they could to keep the situation stable and get two Kills.
No Team would give up easily at the last moment, and Gen. G was no exception. They tried to Fight until the end, but they were powerless at this point because of the loss of so many advantages before. Although they managed to get some local results, their efforts were not enough for ultimate victory.
In Fourth game, Gen. G closed Gold Gap with an ACE Fight and Destroyed two Turrets. However, T1 was determined not to let this Semifinal drag on to a fifth game. They wanted to winnow, and they did it.
Whether it is BLG vs WBG or T1 vs Gen. G, these are two very exciting games. As the winners of the two duels, BLG and T1 will surely bring more exciting performances to the audience in Finals! Let us look forward to Final game day on November 2!

Recently, Apple released a new phone, the iPhone 16, and the performance changes of iOS 17 and iOS 18 have attracted widespread attention. After many tests, here we will take a look at how Genshin Impact performs on the latest iPhone 16.
As we all know, Genshin Impact is a very demanding game, and people have a hard time running it on previous generation iPhones, or even if they run it, it will quickly get hot. Therefore, I will perform a FLIR Thermal Test on the outside of the phone to see how hot it actually gets, and we will also talk about the much-discussed power consumption on the iPhone 16 at the end.
To give you some background knowledge, we played this Genshin Impact for about an hour in total, and we have downloaded it completely to the phone, so everything is local. We will show the results of testing it here and give you our thoughts and opinions.
Getting back to the point, I must say that we have been playing this game for a while and iOS 18 has brought us a very pleasant experience. Genshin Impact is smooth from the start, with a frame rate of about 40 to 60 FPS. We have turned the settings as high as possible, but there are no real performance issues.
Now let’s go to the settings before we continue. We will go to the graphics settings and turn it up to the maximum. In fact, we turned everything up to the highest in our Genshin Impact Account. The only thing we changed was the FPS and Motion Blur. We set FPS to 120 and set Motion Blur to off because I think you really don’t need Motion Blur. On the one hand, it is really annoying, and on the other hand, it is just an unnecessary burden on your system resources. Therefore, we generally turn it off when playing any game, and it actually doesn’t affect your Genshin Impact journey too much.
It is worth mentioning that if you maintain it at 25 FPS, you can hardly see any difference. Some people may think that this is because we did not maintain 120 FPS, but this is actually a fallacy. One is that it’s hard to keep it that high on iOS 18 at its current settings, and more importantly you can’t see a huge difference, anyway. So whether it’s 30 or 60 or even 120, you can’t tell the difference. Genshin Impact can run stably at relatively low levels, achieving the most optimized settings for graphics while ensuring stable operation.
Anyway, let’s take a quick look at the gameplay of Genshin Impact, which is very smooth. There is definitely a noticeable difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS when you change them in the settings, but this runs very smoothly. Even when we zoom in on the character, there are no frame drops. The character can be zoomed out, or jump around, just a little weird, but it doesn’t affect the gameplay. If you fast forward to some battles, you can see how smooth it is.
There is no doubt that the combat experience of Genshin Impact on the iPhone 16 is not a problem at all. Not only is there really no lag, no frame drops, but the actual quality of the graphics looks very good.
The next thing we’re going to do is set a 30-minute timer on the phone, and we’ll continue to play Genshin Impact and then come back to see what the heat is like. Finally, we’ll also take a look at what performance is like.
After finishing the game, if we re-enter Genshin Impact, you’ll see that it still runs well without too many issues. Of course, the back of the iPhone 16 is definitely a little hot, so we’re going to pause for a moment.
For performance, we ran the game for a total of about half an hour at maximum settings, and during the run, we didn’t see any frame rate drops or anything like that. Overall, it was a very smooth and enjoyable experience.
Then what we’re going to do is run FLIR Thermal Test on the back of the iPhone 16. Surprisingly, this didn’t really make the back of the phone hot compared to Call of Duty Mobile, which we tried before.
Of course, the iPhone 16 still gets slightly hot after a long game run, but it’s not very obvious. It’s about 40 to 45 degrees Celsius, not too hot on the edge, and definitely not uncomfortable. So we can still hold it and play, but it may start to get a little hot after another hour or so of playing.
Finally, let’s take a look at the power consumption of iOS 18 after a long run. After all, new features need to be built on the basis of power consumption.
After an hour of running Genshin Impact at maximum settings, we found that iOS 18 consumed 6% of the power, while the previous iOS 17 only consumed 4%. Therefore, we can find that the power consumption of iPhone 16 has increased slightly. However, this is also expected, because the models before the iPhone 14 series are at risk of increased power consumption.
However, because the use of mobile phones varies from person to person. Therefore, we need to understand that the quality of battery life depends on multiple factors, including system optimization, usage habits, hardware configuration, etc. Therefore, it is difficult to accurately determine which version of iOS loses power faster. Here, judging the power consumption by running Genshin Impact is only a reference.
According to the data released by Apple, in the new iOS 18 system, they have made a series of optimizations to battery life. It is said that the new system can effectively extend the use time of the device. However, whether this statement can be established requires a series of actual tests.
In short, after multiple tests, we are impressed by the performance of iPhone 16 in the past hour. It’s obvious to me now that the GPU core in this iOS 18 chip is designed for mobile gaming, and it performs particularly well on Genshin Impact. Like I said before, 30 to 40 minutes of playtime, maximum settings, 120 FPS, it will still give you a good gaming experience. What do you think about this? Welcome to discuss it together. See you next time!
