Genshin Impact continues to gain new players as its social media presence grows on platforms such as Twitter and Reddit. Nearly two years after launch, developer miHoYo celebrates a new social media milestone with the Genshin Impact community and releases a new piece of artwork featuring two Inazuman characters.

Genshin Impact was first released on September 28, 2020, and quickly became a games-as-a-service success for miHoYo. Two weeks after launch, Genshin Impact recouped its development costs of roughly $100 million, and the game's annual budget expanded to $200 million in 2021. Major updates would release in the months and years following launch, introducing a plethora of new content for players to explore. During that time, Genshin Impact's Twitter follower count grew immensely as millions of players joined the community. The game's success also kick-started miHoYo's HoYoverse branding for all of its major games.
