Genshin Impact Generated Over $100M In Two Weeks

MiHoYo's Genshin Impact has generated over $100m since it got released globally two weeks ago which is an astonishing success for a Chinese game. Different sources state that the game managed to make $100 million in just 12 days. The game's development is said to involve around $100 million, so it appears that they have now covered their costs.

The project is a free-to-play, open world, cel-shaded RPG released on September 28th. The game became very popular in Japan, Korea, and China, and even found its fans in the US and Europe.

The project is so popular that some sources name it the most successful launch for an original IP from a Chinese dev. It is free-to-play, but there's a system of in-game 'gacha-style' gambling loot boxes inside. What's next for this Chinese hit? Learn more about the project here.
