World of Warcraft : Bigger than Belgium!
In one of those 'scratch your head' kind of announcements, Blizzard Entertainment has made it known that the number of World of Warcraft subscribers now exceeds the population of Belgium. The latest numbers reveal over twelve million subscribers to what inarguably the most popular MMORPG in history.
Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. announced today that the subscriber base for World of Warcraft, its award-winning massively multiplayer online role-playing game , now exceeds 12 million players worldwide. This milestone was reached in the wake of the mainland Chinese launch of World of Warcraft’s second expansion,Wrath of the Lich King, and also as global anticipation continues to mount for the December 7 release of the game's third expansion, Cataclysm.
