The shutdown is just the beginning! The era of channel servers is coming to an end!

When miHoYo officially announced the closure of the Xiaomi server migration service for "Genshin Impact," the transfer channel for the Xiaomi server version of "Genshin Impact" was officially closed, locking the account data of unmigrated players permanently. Meanwhile, NetEase Games also announced the termination of operations for the Xiaomi channel version of "Egg Party." This has pushed the wave of channel server shutdowns in the gaming community to a climax.

This is not just the end of channel servers for a few games; it marks the conclusion of the entire mobile gaming industry's "channel supremacy" era. The channel model, which once relied on hardware entry monopolies and a 50% high revenue share for easy profits, ultimately could not withstand the changes of time. In this transformation, players should be the most aware—don't let your gaming efforts be trapped in the "data prison" of channel servers!

Ten years ago, channels leveraged the pre-installation advantage of app stores to become the sole entry point for players downloading games. Developers were forced to accept high revenue shares, and channel servers proliferated everywhere. But today, ten years later, the traffic landscape has completely changed. Social media platforms like Douyin and Bilibili have become new hubs for acquiring game users. "Genshin Impact" broke through via fan creations, and "Egg Party" attracted fans through short videos. Developers can now directly connect with users, causing the traffic value of channels to plummet.

Moreover, the various drawbacks of channel servers have long been intolerable for players: version updates lag behind, leaving channel server players waiting for pushes while official server players enjoy the latest content; accounts are bound to platforms, making them useless when switching phones; customer service often deflects blame, leaving issues unresolved; accounts hold no value, meaning even heavy spending can result in assets stuck in your hands.

Previously, several games under NetEase had already withdrawn from the Xiaomi channel, offering migration services to official servers. During the New Year period, they launched a New Year Luck-Bringing福利补贴活动. This move did not leave players bearing losses alone; instead, it turned migrating to official servers into a "羊毛薅ing" opportunity by offering generous福利.

For Xiaomi channel server players migrating to official servers,完整保留资产 is the basic procedure, enhanced with exclusive New Year subsidies: new Xiaomi users on the official server get a 6元首充返, new registrants are guaranteed充值券,老玩家邀新 can receive up to 600元券, and there's a超级锦鲤奖 offering 5 years of monthly 648 draws. However, the活动时间 is ending soon, so hurry to "薅羊毛"! After migrating to the official server, game accounts enjoy全平台数据互通;藏宝阁正规交易 allows account resale for value recovery;版本更新同步官方 ensures fresh gameplay is never missed;客服体系完善 enables quick issue resolution. It directly opens up a全新的游戏体验!

Times are changing, gaming玩法 are changing, and the眼光 for choosing servers should change too. The era of channel servers has long ended. The long-term stability and福利满满 of official servers are the ultimate归宿 for players.
