Zenless Zone Zero Hits $600M Mobile Revenue in Two Years.
Comparing HoYoverse’s Historic Lineup
When compared to HoYoverse’s historic lineup, Zenless Zone Zero sits in a comfortable middle ground. It generated about 17% of the mobile revenue brought in by the studio’s open-world phenomenon, Genshin Impact, which accumulated a towering $3.6B on mobile during its first two years, as per Pocketgamer.biz.
While it continues a trend of newer HoYoverse titles seeing more moderated returns compared to that historic peak, Zenless Zone Zero is still vastly outperforming the studio’s older roots. Its two-year total outpaces the first two years of Honkai Impact 3rd, which brought in $322.7M between 2016 and 2018, by a massive 87%.
The Zenless Zone Zero remains incredibly durable as it moves deeper into 2026, consistently averaging more than $10M in monthly mobile spending, with this past June bringing in $11.8M. Major content drops still spark massive waves of player spending.
The recent rollout of the Version 3.0 anniversary update introduced the breathtaking sky island of Roscaelifer, the new Wind attribute, and highly anticipated gacha banners featuring characters Velina and Ye Shunguang. It increased daily mobile revenue by 217%, reaching $1.7 million in a single day. Though this was short of the game’s all-time daily record of $10.7M set during the Version 2.5 launch on December 30, 2025, it proves the Zenless Zone Zero has long-term staying power.
With HoYoverse recently securing a spot on the Top 30 China Game Makers 2026 list, the studio’s stylish urban experiment has firmly established itself as a profitable, self-sustaining pillar in a brutal market. As fans eagerly look forward to the narrative expansions coming in Version 3.1, Zenless Zone Zero continues to prove that you don’t need to break all-time records to be a certified runaway success.
