Aloy and the Predator Bow will arrive in Genshin Impact with the 2.1 update. However, only PlayStation users (PS4 and PS5) will be able to access the free character and weapon as of now. Mobile and PC players will have to wait for the 2.2 patch.
Despite being free, both Aloy and her signature weapon are great during combat. With Predator Bow, the Cryo five-star character can constantly deal Cryo DMG and fulfill the role of a support DPS efficiently.
Here are the stats for the Predator Bow in Genshin Impact at maxed levels. This will certainly give players a better idea of the viability of this weapon.

How good is Aloy with Predator Bow in Genshin Impact?
While Aloy will be accessible to all Genshin Impact players, the Predator Bow is only available for PlayStation users. It can only be used on PC/mobile platforms via cross-save.
The Predator Bow has an ATK sub-stat that is not too exciting. However, its passive ability, Strong Strike, can be a game-changer for many players.
Strong Strike:
Dealing Cryo DMG to opponents increases the wielder's Normal and Charged Attack DMG by 10% for 6s. This effect can have a maximum of two stacks. Additionally, when Aloy equips the Predator, ATK is increased by 66.
It is self-evident that the Predator Bow works best when paired with Aloy. Similarly, the protagonist of Horizon Zero Dawn unleashes her true potential only with the Predator Bow.
It is worth noting that the Predator Bow is inspired by the War Bow from Horizon Zero Dawn itself. Players who have played the original PlayStation game will definitely enjoy using it in Genshin Impact.
The Predator Bow's passive ability, Strong Strike, works only when played on PlayStation consoles. PC/mobile players who use the weapon after cross-saving still won't be able to use it.
All in all, it seems like PlayStation users will make the most out of the latest collaboration between Genshin Impact and Horizon Zero Dawn.
