Genshin Impact player full clears Spiral Abyss challenge on an Apple Watch

A Genshin Impact player cleared Spiral Abyss Floor 12 using an Apple Watch, earning full nine-stars.

A Genshin Impact player has completed Floor 12 of the Spiral Abyss in version 5.8 using an Apple Watch, achieving a full nine-star score, a milestone that challenges even experienced players on high-end devices.

The player shared their run on the Chinese video platform Bilibili, demonstrating how they cleared Genshin Impact’s endgame content using the small Apple Watch screen.

The device used appears to be the Apple Watch Ultra, which does not natively support the game. There is no official cloud version for the Apple Watch, suggesting the player likely used a paired iPhone or PC with remote access to stream the game to the device.

This setup allowed control of the game through the watch while the processing was handled externally, turning the watch into a miniature console.

Despite the hardware limitations and restricted screen size, the player managed to clear all three chambers of Floor 12 within the time limit.

Spiral Abyss 5.8 presents a challenging environment, featuring high-HP world boss enemies such as the Secret Source Automaton: Overseer Device, Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker, and Gluttonous Yumkasaur Mountain King. Clearing this floor with a nine-star score requires precise rotations and timing, which the player achieved despite the unconventional setup.

Users on Bilibili praised the accomplishment, with one commenting, “Someone that’s truly strong never complains about their environment,” while another noted, “He plays better than me playing on my mobile.”
