"Tsubaki in Thawing Snow" Short Trailer - Genshin Impact Featuring Kamisato Ayaka	April 18, 2022	No matter how splendid the blooming flowers are, there will always come a day when they must face the severe test of winter. Even ice and snow must give way, but the evergreen trees are still standing. When the clouds part and snow melts, that's how one knows that spring has come.

"Endless Suffering" Short Trailer - Genshin Impact Featuring Xiao	January 13, 2023	Long ago, there were people in Liyue Harbor who caught a glimpse of a shadow. This solitary shadow was fleeting, and would quickly conceal himself amongst the lanterns. All the hardships in the world have a name. This one is a millennium of doom that cannot be quelled nor eradicated. Even the occasional respite is but ephemeral, and cannot give rise to hope.	Baizhu Little Le Qiqi Venti Xiao	Virtuous Guardian

Multiple other animated videos have been released as exclusively promotional material outside of the game. These videos do not share the art style of the other Story Teaser categories, but either follow the naming scheme or are included in the official playlist, and are therefore included here. They are lore-heavy videos that serve as a teaser of upcoming content.
