According to previous income figures, the Yelan and Hu Tao double banner broke Genshin Impact’s total revenue record for banner sales. TimocaSamJa, a Reddit member, presented an intriguing statistic that demonstrates the difference in sales between the two highlighted five-star characters. Yelan’s sales account for 60% of the banner’s entire income, according to the article. Several fans were surprised since there was greater excitement in the community about Hu Tao’s re-run because she skipped 10 straight updates before obtaining a re-run. Her previous banner appearance was in November 2021, during version 2.2.
