While its revenue dipped slightly compared to March, it still maintains a significant lead over its competitor in third place. Honkai: Star Rail earned $109 million, while Love and Deep Space, in third place, pales in comparison with $35.9 million.
Several factors contribute to these impressive financial figures. Firstly, the game receives regular major updates with fresh content, keeping the audience engaged. Secondly, miHoYo actively invests in diverse media activities, ranging from concerts and animated shorts to collaborations with other brands.

Analysts highlight miHoYo's rare industry phenomenon supporting and expanding existing projects while simultaneously creating new potential hits. Experts believe this approach is key to the studio's consistent leadership month after month.
