Over 1 Million Characters Have Been Made in WoW Forever Beta, and Surprisingly Few of Them are Skyborne
It's no secret that World of Warcraft Forever has been incredibly popular since entering its beta last month, but now, over 1 million characters have been made.
ONN summary
Over 1 million characters have been created in the World of Warcraft: Forever beta, despite limited access primarily through the $30 Skyborne pack. Skyborne characters only make up 18.7% of all characters created, with Humans and Undead being more popular among Alliance and Horde players, respectively. Blizzard has seen the beta's popularity as a positive sign for the full game's launch, which is set for November 4th. The game's success has also faced controversies, including name restrictions and crackdowns on gold selling.
