Mists of Pandaria Pushes World Of Warcraft Subs Over 10M
The recent launch of World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria has given subscriptions a boost with Blizzard seeing 2.7 million copies sold in the first week. Total World of Warcraft subscribers have passed 10 million again in all regions. In August, Blizzard reported subscriptions for the game declined to 9.1 million. Last year at this time, subscriptions were at 11.4 million.
"It's been gratifying to see the results of all of the work we put into this expansion and to hear all of the positive feedback from players so far," said Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime.
Blizzard said the World of Warcraft development team is already working on the first major post-launch content update.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
