World of Warcraft Hits 5 Million Users

Blizzard today announced that its popular MMORPG World of Warcraft has surpassed five million customers worldwide. Launched over a year ago in North America, New Zealand and Australia, the game has since then spread to China, Taiwan and Europe.

"World of Warcraft's growth continues to exceed all our expectations," said Mike Morhaime, president and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We want to reiterate our thanks to the millions of players worldwide and to all the retailers who have enthusiastically supported the game over the past year."

The game will also see an expansion pack set for launch in 2006, called World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade.
