Honkai: Star Rail, like Genshin Impact, is a 3D turn-based RPG that is also free to download and play. We were impressed with Honkai: Star Rail during its appearance at the Apple Dev Showcase earlier this year, but it also seems to borrow many of the models that made Genshin Impact such a powerhouse mobile title before it. It would appear that MiHoYo is on a role with its releases. According to reports, Honkai: Star Rail easily surpassed 20 million downloads on its first day of release. That means Honkai was able to outpace Genshin Impact in an even shorter amount of time. Looking back at data from Genshin Impact’s release in 2020, by Day Four following its release, the game had amassed 17 million downloads according to the data.ai Twitter. According to Ahmad, by the time one day had passed since Honkai: Star Rail’s release, the game had already surpassed over 20 million downloads. Reports of Honkai: Star Rail’s Day One downloads were reported via Niko Partners video games analyst Daniel Ahmad, better known as ZhugeEX on social media. If this number is fully accurate, it even outdid Genshin Impact when it first launched in September 2020. The game officially launched yesterday, and in the one day since, it was reportedly downloaded over 20 million times. Chinese developer MiHoYo, well-known for its previous success with Genshin Impact, is on track to knock another one out of the park with mobile sci-fi RPG Honkai: Star Rail.
