Genshin Impact is giving away free Protogemas to players for winning the Best Mobile Game award at The Game Awards.
Yesterday, December 9, miHoYo took home the Best Mobile Game award for Genshin Impact at The Game Awards, beating out players like League of Legends: Wild Rift and Fantasian. To celebrate the victory, miHoYo announced that it will be giving away a total of 1,600 Protogems to players as a reward.
Dear travelers,
Thanks to everyone’s support, Genshin Impact received the award in the category of “Best Mobile Game” and was nominated in the category of “Best Game in Development” at TGA 2021. We will be sending 1600 Protogemas as a thank you gift.

Protogems will be distributed in quantities over the course of four days, starting tomorrow on December 11 and ending on December 14. On each of these days, all players must log into Genshin Impact on any platform, and they will immediately be rewarded with 400 Protogems every day, provided they have reached Adventurer Rank 7.
It’s a nice little move from miHoYo to the wider Genshin Impact community. If you can successfully rack up all 1,600 Protogems without spending all of them before the end of Version 2.3, you will actually have enough for 10 draws from a single Banner event. That would normally take a lot of effort at Genshin Impact to win, or cost you a penny.
