As of March 31, 2014, Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft remains the #1
subscription-based MMORPG, with approximately 7.6 million subscribers.⁵
1 million preorders already for WoD, which is equal to the bump in subs they got from Mists, but back then their subscriber base was 10 million. WoD will likely bring them back to 2013 numbers but I see no reasons why the trend of 1M spike, 2.5 million lost two years later won't continue.
