  • Now launch Cultivation launcher as administrator. [Make sure you have Genshin Impact already installed on your PC]
  • Navigate to the Genshin Impact launcher Options menu. 
  • Select Genshin Impact.exe in the Set game install path. 
  • Now, join a server using the address and port. [Grasscutter server: address: grasscutters.xyz port: 443]

That is it. To set up your own Genshin Impact private server, you must install the latest version of Java and Mongo DB on your PC. For Java, you can do it via Command Prompt and download it from its official website for Mongo DB. Download and extract the 2.7gc beginner starterpack.rar in a new folder on your desktop. Once that is done, open CMD and enter java -jar [jar file name]. This should run your Genshin Impact local server. 

That’s it for now. Make sure to check out our coverage on the Genshin Impact version 3.0 update.
