Analyst Expects WoW Subscriber Base to Grow
World of Warcraft’s popularity knows no bounds, and if an analyst is to go by, it’s going to go beyond bounds, however lame that may sound.
Lazard Capital Markets analyst Colin Sebastian expects the MMORPG titan to add another 1 million subscribers in the next year to its significantly large 10.9 subscriber base.
"We expect a net addition of ~1 million new subscribers to World of Warcraft over the next 12 months, driven in part by the launch of the expansion pack, as well as by ongoing growth of the game in China," he wrote in an investors note.
"We do not expect [Warhammer Online to have] a significant negative impact in the near-term on World of Warcraft," Sebastian added.
Wrath of the Lich King, the aforementioned expansion, is set to launch November 13.
