It is not new for important figures in the game world to work on different projects. The MiHoYo team, which has exploded with Genshin Impact in recent years, is facing a project that will upset this situation. The producer allegedly invested in the production of a real nuclear fission reactor.

MiHoYo has become an investor in chinese giant investment group NIO Capital’s “world’s first miniature Tokamak reactor” project, local newspaper PanDaily reported. This new technology, developed by Shanghai-based energy company Energy Singularity, has been described as “the next generation of fission”.

We shouldn’t confuse technology with nuclear fusion. Since I’m not an engineer, I’ll try to give you a little explanation with the help of Google. This fission project, including MiHoYo; The process we know as fusion means that the two atoms are combined with various reactions. They’re both quite different processes, in short.

But what’s MiHoYo doing with clean energy or nuclear fission? If you played Genshin Impact, there is a small term you can see on the opening screen of the game: “Tech Otakus Save The World”. Since this term is MiHoYo’s own motto, we can see that the company invests in experimental projects as it makes money.
