miHoYo Success on Genshin Impact

A game you are all probably familiar with, Genshin Impact, was developed and created entirely in 2017 by the Shanghai China-based video gaming company miHoYo. Genshin Impact is a well-known product RPG of miHoYo which became an instant success that has sold almost $245 million worth of in-game goods worldwide in only just one month. This is one of the greatest and most successful launches in the history of the mobile gaming industry in the world.

Within two months of its launches, Genshin Impact, which is available on Microsoft Windows, PS4, Android, and iOS, grossed almost $400 million on mobile devices. In the US, the launching of the game was the greatest mobile RPG launch in history. The game, which was recognized for its combat and open-world freedom, was the largest international launch ever for a Chinese game from a Chinese Company.

Nobody anticipated the enormous success of Genshin Impact when it originally launched. It was undoubtedly attractive, but it was also simple to be dismissed as another Chinese free-to-play mobile game with adaptation characters of fairy sidekicks and include microtransactions. What wasn't clear was how it would break presumptions of a game launched by Chinese developers, take inspiration from classic anime to create an RPG that manages to feel both nostalgic and innovative at the same time, and how its creator, MiHoYo, would come to represent China's developing games industry globally.

miHoyo's Genshin Impact expansion globally requires good localization that appeals to players outside of China. It cannot simply launch its product abroad and still adapt with the Chinese language in-game.However, thanks to localization companies such as Digital-Trans that help Genshin Impact localization to South-East Asia countries that assist them in growing their business internationally, Chinese game developers may now connect with all types of players.
