Following the global success of Genshin Impact, which became one of the highest-grossing mobile games of 2021, the company launched a global publishing brand named Cognosphere (trading as HoYoverse) in 2022. HoYoverse was established to manage and expand miHoYo's content production and global publishing outside of China. HoYoverse is based in Singapore and has since conducted global operations under the brand, with offices in Montreal, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Seoul.
