Conan ‘Biggest’ MMO Launch Since WoW, Ships One Million

June 6th, 2008

age-of-conan-2 The MMORPG market is finally seeing some release from the dictator-like clutches of World of Warcraft following the release of Age of Conan. Developer Funcom today sent out word that their game has seen over one million units shipped worldwide, with the majority in the United States.

“Sales data shows that Age of Conan is the biggest MMO launch since World of Warcraft,” claimed Funcom marketing VP Morten Larssen. “The numbers are very promising, and we are very proud to be one of the fastest selling PC games ever in a launch month and the biggest simultaneous Europe/US MMO launch in history.”

Hopefully they will be able to keep up the steam, seeing as how the most-played MMO game is almost four years old.
