Revenue estimates indicate that Genshin Impact might soon be overtaken by Wuthering Waves in monthly revenue as Koru Games gacha-style RPG gains increasing popularity. The rivalry between the two games began with the announcement of Wuthering Waves, which many initially dismissed as a mere imitation of Genshin Impact. However, the competition intensified when Wuthering Waves topped the download charts in over 100 countries at launch and became one of the most-watched games on Twitch, all while Genshin Impact grappled to retain its player base.
