miHoYo’s latest game, Zenless Zone Zero, has taken the mobile gaming world by storm since its global launch a month ago. According to GachaRevenue, the game has already raked in an impressive $12.8 million in revenue on iOS and Android platforms.
Revenue Breakdown
The bulk of the revenue, $8.8 million, has come from players in China, with the rest of the world contributing $4 million to the total. GachaRevenue relies on Sensor Tower data to estimate player spending, with some adjustments for third-party Android stores in China.
Comparative Analysis
Comparing Zenless Zone Zero to miHoYo’s previous hits, such as Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, the new game falls slightly behind in terms of first-month revenue. However, it still boasts a respectable cumulative revenue per download of $5.94.
Global Appeal
Despite experiencing a drop in daily revenue within its first week, Zenless Zone Zero continues to attract players from around the world, with Japan leading the pack in terms of revenue per download. As the game continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how it stacks up against its predecessors in the long run.
