Genshin Impact publisher Cognoshere continues to take legal action against some leakers by issuing a subpoena to Twitter. In the past, the publisher has done the same with Discord to target specific, well-known leaks on major Genshin Impact Discord channels; the main target was a leaker named Ubatcha. This time, Cognosphere is taking action against Xwides, Merlin Impact, and GenshinWorld, other notable leakers in the anime gaming community.

Cognosphere appears to have asked a California court to issue a subpoena to Twitter, ordering them to provide names, addresses, phone numbers, and all email addresses associated with the three leaks.

The three individuals reacted differently to the judicial measure. Xwides is a Russian leaker with over 93,000 Twitter followers, and it looks like this news doesn’t affect them as they just leaked even more future Genshin Impact content in the last 24 hours.

This answer is notably different from Ubacha’s. Facing a similar situation, Ubatcha deleted a large number of tweets and released a statement saying that they will no longer leak Genshin Impact content.

GenshinWorld followed Ubatcha’s lead and completely deleted its own Twitter page. Meanwhile, Merlin Impact posted a recent tweet saying they would simply move to another platform if Cognosphere banned their Twitter account.

Stephen Totilo, former editor of Kotaku, shared news of this most recent subpoena. a twitter Just yesterday. He posted an image of an alleged legal document related to Xwides, which may have the same format for the other two.

Genshin Impact will soon enter its 4.0 versions with huge map expansions that add the city of Fountain, a new Archon, many characters and maybe even a third banner phase. So it’s no surprise that Cognosphere is cracking down on leaks as we prepare for the Genshin Impact v3.5 update.
