It is not reported how downloads were distributed between the versions for mobile devices, PC and PlayStation 5. miHoYo did not disclose the title's revenue either.
Recall, according to AppMagic, only the mobile version of Honkai: Star Rail earned more than $6 million in its debut day, ahead of the launch revenue of another hit by miHoYo — Genshin Impact. Five months later, Naavik analysts reported that the total revenue of the game on all platforms exceeded $1 billion. The main markets for the game were China, Japan and the USA.
Also in its announcement, miHoYo confirmed that Honkai: Star Rail will receive support for the Apple Vision Pro VR headset through a special compatibility mode, and on the morning of February 6, a patch 2.0 with a new region, the planet Penaconia, will be released for the game.
A week ago, it became known that the mobile version of Genshin Impact earned $5 billion — faster than any other mobile game in the world. According to the data data.ai She took this bar 40 months after the release. For comparison, the revenue of the previous record holder Clash of Clans crossed the $5 billion milestone 51 months after its release. Let's see if Honkai: Star Rail manages to break the Genshin Impact record.
