Short-lived Drama: Honkai Impact 3rd Uses Arknights BGM by Mistake, AI-chan Issues Apology

Recently, Honkai Impact 3rd's official program accidentally used background music from Arknights, sparking rapid discussion within the gaming community. As the original thread grew into a massive 'high-rise' (a massive discussion thread), the official account, AI-chan, stepped into the comments to issue an apology, effectively concluding this minor copyright dispute.

The community response was mixed. Some users questioned whether this constituted a formal copyright infringement and joked about how Hypergryph (Arknights' developer) might respond, while others argued that the issue was trivial and didn't warrant extreme hostility. One comment quipped: 'The subject was ready to die in battle, why has Your Majesty already surrendered?', mocking the fact that the developer apologized before the fanbases could engage in a full-blown conflict. Others dissected the sincerity and method of the apology—such as the decision to reply in comments rather than posting a standalone announcement.
