World of Warcraft Player Count Rises to 7.25 Million as New Expansions and Modes Boost Interest
-
World of Warcraft has over 7.25 million active players currently according to BellularGaming and verified internal sources, showing growth rather than decline.
-
The growth coincides with the well-received Dragonflight expansion, as well as new modes like Classic Hardcore and Season of Discovery.
-
Players are preparing for the next expansion, The War Within, launching later in 2024 and kicking off an epic 3-part storyline.
-
While below its 12 million player peak, 7.25 million shows World of Warcraft is ramping up in popularity again after Shadowlands' decline.
-
It remains to be seen if Blizzard can retain player interest until The War Within launches and delivers on its ambitious promises.
