IT Home reported on March 26 that according to a BellularGaming report, Blizzard Entertainment's "World of Warcraft" game began to resume growth, and the number of active players is currently around 7.25 million.
Blizzard Entertainment recently attended PAX East to discuss World of Warcraft, a 20-year-old massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG).
Blizzard executives began their discussion by admitting that the 8th expansion, World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, did not meet players' expectations, but the 9th expansion, World of Warcraft: Age of Dragons, received a lot of positive reviews from players, resulting in an increase in players not seen in years.
BellularGaming's analysis estimates that the number of active players in the game of "World of Warcraft" has reached 7.25 million, and the screenshot attached by IT Home is as follows:
Normally, the number of players will increase dramatically around the time before and after the release of the World of Warcraft expansion, but the number of players will gradually decrease during the update after the release of the expansion. This is mainly due to players unsubscribing to play other games after completing the story missions of the main game, etc.
However, after the release of World of Warcraft: Age of Dragons, the number of players of World of Warcraft has increased rather than decreased, which shows that the game has been recognized by players and attracted old players to return.
