Genshin Impact player spending increased by 5.6% year-over-year from 2021, leading the hit Hoyoverse mobile game to rake in a total of $4.2 billion in lifetime player spending worldwide, according to Sensor Tower.

With $1.9 billion spent in 2022, up from $1.8 billion the previous year, the gacha RPG’s success shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. And, with frequent Genshin Impact updates rolling through regularly, there’s no reason it should, either.

China is currently Genshin Impact’s largest market with approximately 35% of lifetime mobile spending, Japan comes in at second with 23%, while the U.S. is the third largest market with about 16% of lifetime mobile spending. If you’re one of the many players contributing to these massive numbers, you may want to peak at our Genshin Impact tier list and Genshin Impact codes guide.
