Honkai: Star Rail is off to a fantastic start, the official Weibo account has revealed. As spotted by analyst Daniel Ahmad, director of research & insights at Niko Partners, the follow-up to Genshin Impact has already been downloaded more than 20 million times, a mere day after launch.
This is a considerable bump when compared to the very successful launch of Genshin Impact, which was downloaded 17 million times on mobile on its first four days. It also went on to gross more than $100m in two weeks, covering its development costs. The Honkai: Star Rail announcement seems to be focused on its mobile performance, rather than PC, so I've reached out to the developer to find out how it's doing across the board.
