⚠️ Test version for Linux. This build is new and has hardly been tested with the game yet. Expect rough edges and please report what works and what doesn't on Discord.
Windows and macOS: use the regular 1.1 release.

Linux (x64):

  • AppImage: download GenshinMapOverlay-1.1.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage below, make it executable (chmod +x GenshinMapOverlay-*.AppImage) and start it. AppImages need FUSE 2: sudo apt install libfuse2 (Ubuntu 24.04: libfuse2t64).
  • Debian/Ubuntu: or install GenshinMapOverlay-1.1.0-linux-amd64.deb with sudo apt install ./GenshinMapOverlay-1.1.0-linux-amd64.deb and start it from the app menu.

Genshin runs on Linux only through Wine or Proton, which HoYoverse doesn't support officially, regardless of the overlay. Put the game in window or borderless mode and open the map with M.

Known limits:

  • Wayland: the overlay restarts itself on XWayland (X11). Screen capture goes through the system dialog, pick the screen with the game. The dialog comes back at every start.
  • The overlay shows up in screenshots and streams, Linux can't hide a window from captures.
  • Hotkeys work while the game window has focus. On GNOME the tray icon needs the AppIndicator extension.
  • "Start Genshin borderless" and the hotkey helper are Windows-only.
