Are PlayStation Genshin Impact Players Finally Getting Cross-Save?

According to the games page on the Epic Games Store, the title will have cross-play between many platforms, but none was mentioned by name, That way, nothing was said about the existence of a cross-play function between the new PC version and the current PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions of the game.

Even if no official announcement over the new function was made and keeping in mind that revealing the cross-save would be a great way to get even more players to try the Epic Games version of the game since a free PC client already exists, is not the time to lose hope, but to wait, as more details regarding the game on Epic Games Store will be revealed.
