WotLK becomes fastest selling PC game ever

[jakncoke]

After a fun-filled launch night at thousands of midnight openings and a week for everyone to begin exploring the mysteries of Northrend, we're pleased to be able to share the first sales results for Wrath of the Lich King. In its first 24 hours of availability, the expansion sold over 2.8 million copies to become the new fastest-selling PC game of all time, eclipsing the previous record of nearly 2.4 million set by The Burning Crusade. For full details, check out the official announcement.

We'd like to extend our thanks to everyone in the global World of Warcraft community, whose enthusiasm has made this possible.
