Knowing where to find Genshin Impact Anemoculus is an important part of the game. Find them, and offer them up to the Statues of the Seven, and you'll earn extra stamina, more adventure experience, Primogems, Anemo Sigils and more. However, searching for Genshin Impact Anemoculus can be hard work. Many will be uncovered by chance, but with 65 different Anemoculus locations in total you probably won't find them all on your own. To help you out we've divided the Genshin Impact map into four regions below, with all the Anemoculus locations marked and a short description on how to find each one of them.

You can start your search for Genshin Impact Anemoculi almost as soon as you begin the game. However, you will only be able to access every Anemoculus location after you reach the third part of the prologue. Finally, keep in mind that a four-pointed white star will pop up on the map whenever you’re near an Anemoculus. Together with the numbers on our maps, this should help you find the right search area. Some Anemoculi are then easily discovered, but others are very well-hidden.

Good luck!
