According to a report from the analytics group Sensor Tower, less than two years after its September 2020 release, Genshin Impact has raked in over three billion dollars in revenue. This feat puts Genshin Impact with the likes Candy Crush Saga, Clash of Clans, and Monster Strike—some of the most successful mobile games of all time.
Currently, Genshin Impact's revenue still trails behind PUBG Mobile and Honor of Kings—both at numbers one and two, respectively. But as the world's most popular gacha-based game in the first quarter of 2022, Genshin Impact is poised to ride its success well past the four billion mark later this year. The majority of all-time revenue for Genshin Impact comes from China at 30.7%, followed by Japan's 23.7%, and then the United States comes in third with 19.7%.
