Genshin Impact Absent from Mobile Game Awards 2024 Nominations

For the first time in nearly four years, Genshin Impact has not received a nomination in any category at the Mobile Game Awards 2024. This marks a significant shift in the landscape of mobile gaming recognition, as Genshin Impact had been a consistent presence at the awards since its release.

While Genshin Impact is notably absent from the nominee list, other gacha games have stepped into the spotlight. Titles such as Honkai Star Rail and Wuthering have secured nominations in various categories, including the prestigious Game of the Year. However, the Mobile Game Awards 2024 has not entirely overlooked Hoyoverse, the developer behind Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail. The company has received a nomination in the Best Developer category, acknowledging their continued impact on the mobile gaming industry.
