Genshin Impact FPS Unlocker is a utility that removes the 60 frames-per-second cap in Genshin Impact by writing new frame rate values directly to the game's process memory.
The tool works as an external program using WriteProcessMemory to inject the desired frame rate into the running game. It includes handle protection bypass functionality and does not require a kernel driver for memory access. The unlocker automatically launches the game after injection, so the game must be closed before running the tool. It supports both the overseas and Chinese versions of the game and is designed to remain compatible with future game updates without requiring source code modifications.
Players considering this tool should know that HoYoverse is aware of it and using only the fps unlock feature carries no ban risk. The tool requires administrator privileges because it must start the game itself, and the game demands such permissions. It supports loading third-party plugins through the settings interface, though using additional plugins carries user risk. Any performance artifacts like stuttering from unlocking fps are not considered bugs in the unlocker itself. The tool requires the .NET Desktop Runtime to run and can be placed anywhere except the game folder.
Development activity shows the project was recently rewritten in .NET 8, indicating a willingness to modernize the codebase substantially. A mobile UI launch option was added, suggesting responsiveness to user needs beyond the core unlocking feature. The README explicitly states the maintainer will attempt to update the source code promptly if needed, demonstrating a commitment to maintaining compatibility as the game evolves.
