A recent revenue report has revealed that Honkai: Star Rail far exceeded Genshin Impact when it comes to overall banner sales in March. Both games feature character banners, a common mechanic in gacha games, which allow players to try their luck and pull for certain playable units that are available for a short period, usually three weeks.

Even though Genshin Impact is still widely considered HoYoverse's main title, Honkai: Star Rail has frequently claimed the top revenue spot in the mobile gaming industry.

Another factor in Honkai: Star Rail's revenue success is that the popular five-star support Sparkle was released on February 29. This timing means that the majority of her sales were realized in March.
