As mentioned above, in the current version of the game there is no way to link your miHoYo account PS4 to PC for Genshin Impact. Now since it's not possible to link your PS4 account to PC or mobile for Genshin Impact, it means that cross-save is not going to be available for Sony gamers.

The reason for this feature not being available for the Sony gamers, miHoYo mentioned that this is because of the restrictions for PlayStation accounts. PS4 gamers can still enjoy cross-platform multiplayer with their friends on PC, iOS, and Android, but they will not be able to share saved data.
