HoYoverse Launches Another Share to Win Primogem Event
HoYoverse has officially rolled out Phase 2 of the Version "Luna VIII" Top Up Center sharing event, announced through HoYoLAB. The concept is simple: share the official promotional image from the topup Center on social media, and you're in the running to win free Primogems no topup required to enter.
Alongside this share event, HoYoverse is also running two evergreen promos through its official Top-Up Center: 300 Primogems for your first purchase since the release of Version "Luna VI," plus an extra 8% Primogem bonus on every top-up made through that official channel. So if you're already planning to top up this month, now's a good time to grab both perks at once.
How to Join the Phase 2 Share Event
The process is straightforward:
Save the official promotional image for the current phase (press and hold to save it directly from the official HoYoLAB post).
Share that image together with the official link https://hoyo.link/ovXxkF1hj on any platform outside HoYoLAB, such as X (Twitter), Facebook, WhatsApp, or Discord. Remember, the image and link must be shared together one without the other doesn't count.
Make sure your post stays public and visible for the entire duration of the event.
Screenshot your post, then paste that screenshot as a comment on the official HoYoLAB event post.
Requirements for a Valid Entry
Only posts shared outside of HoYoLAB count sharing within HoYoLAB itself doesn't qualify.
Your post must be visible to someone other than yourself private or locked accounts with no audience won't count.
Don't reuse screenshots from previous sharing events it has to be a fresh screenshot for this specific phase.
The screenshot must clearly show the time of posting, and that timestamp has to fall within the current event period.
Prize Breakdown: 200 Winners Total
The event runs on a three-tier prize structure based on how many platforms you share on:
Gold Prize: 20 randomly selected Travelers who share on 3 or more platforms (outside HoYoLAB) each receive 120 Primogems.
Silver Prize: 30 randomly selected Travelers who share on 2 or more platforms each receive 120 Primogems.
Standard Prize: 150 randomly selected Travelers from all valid entries each receive 120 Primogems.
Guaranteed Reward: simply by participating validly, you automatically get the "A Space and Time for You" Profile Page Background permanently no random draw needed for this one.
Interestingly, the prize tiers are structured around your sharing effort the more platforms you use, the better your odds of landing in the Gold or Silver pool, even though the Primogem amount stays the same (120) across every tier. That makes spreading your share across as many platforms as possible the smartest approach, rather than settling for just the Standard tier.
Event Schedule
Event period: July 21, 2026 – August 11, 2026, 23:59:59 (UTC+8).
Winner announcement: updated in the same event post, starting after August 17, 2026 (UTC+8).
Keep in mind this is still Phase 2 meaning the promotional image you're supposed to share is this phase's specific version, not the one from Phase 1. HoYoverse even flags this directly in the official post: don't forget to share the latest promotional image from the current phase.
What Makes an Entry Invalid
Before you jump in, it's worth checking what could get your entry disqualified:
Content that violates Community Rules, or that's plagiarized/lifted from other creators.
Content unrelated to the event's theme, content containing any form of advertising, or content that spreads malicious rumors or discredits the game and its characters.
Replying to someone else's comment your screenshot must be posted as a new comment, not a reply.
Each HoYoLAB account can only win one prize per phase so you can't win both Gold and Standard in the same phase.
Don't Let Your Reward Slip Away Check These 3 Things
HoYoverse also flags a few important notes players commonly overlook:
Turn on Reward Notifications now via HoYoLAB's notification settings. Winners are notified through System Messages if notifications aren't enabled and that causes you to miss the claim window, the reward will not be reissued.
Fill in your Genshin Impact UID through My Information > Information Management > Game Information Management > Genshin Impact, before the announcement date. If your UID isn't filled in by the time results go live, you'll be treated as having forfeited your Primogem reward.
The Topup Center's discount also runs on its own validity window check the Top Up Center page directly for the exact discount period, since it can differ from this share event's timeline.
Tips to Boost Your Winning Odds
Since every winner is picked at random, there's no way to "guarantee" a win. Still, a few things can help maximize your chances:
Use as many platforms as you actually have. If you're active on X, Facebook (via Status), WhatsApp, and a Discord community server, share on all of them at once this automatically bumps you into the Gold Prize pool, which has a better winner to entrant ratio (20 winners) than the much larger Standard Prize pool.
Take a screenshot with a clear timestamp. Make sure the date and time on your screenshot are legible and fall within July 21 - August 11, 2026, since that's one of the main validation requirements.
Don't skip filling in your UID. Rather than forgetting once results are already out, add your Genshin Impact UID to HoYoLAB right after submitting your entry no need to risk losing a reward over something this easy to prevent.
Follow the official HoYoLAB account so you don't miss the next phase. Sharing events like this usually continue into Phase 3, 4, and beyond throughout Version 6.7, each with its own unique promotional image.
Why Does HoYoverse Keep Running Events Like This?
If you're curious, sharing events like this aren't new HoYoverse runs them fairly regularly alongside major version updates, usually tied to Topup Center promotions. Beyond giving the community extra rewards, it's also an organic way to extend the Topup Center's reach to a wider audience outside HoYoLAB which is exactly why the rules specifically require sharing on external platforms rather than just within the HoYoLAB community itself.
For players who keep track of small events like this consistently, the total Primogems collected across one full update can add up nicely when stacked with other F2P sources — daily commissions, achievements, and exploration rewards from new areas like Frost Moon. While 120 Primogems from this event alone looks small next to what's needed for a full pull, stacking similar events across a whole year can add up to a genuinely meaningful amount for a patient F2P player.
