EQ Live Has 66k Active Accounts (and Other Fun Facts From the Acquisition)
 

As a follow-up to the acquisition news, it turns out the acquisition revealed some fun information about Daybreak, including how many subscribers (or at least active accounts) EQ Live still has: sixty-six thousand.

If you're curious the article has the numbers from all the different Daybreak owned games, plus this fun graphic:

Did the sale not include H1Z1?

Look at those release dates. Daybreak didn't release anything themselves.

Cool link! Man this is wild.

I wonder how many of the 66k live accounts are single users, Like, is it 30k single users and on average everyone has 1.1 boxes? I wonder.

I had so much fun with planetside 2

that's a great link! super interesting to see this data after so many years.

I personally have had up to 10 live accounts and still are attached to my email. I havent played in over 2 years on live so I wonder what their definition of active means. I can log into them all for the most part. (if I can remember the passwords)

look how far EQ2 is behind EQ1... yikes

those poor nerds
they were just like us... once

Loramin, really interesting numbers to consider for a business model. Is p99 going to survive?

Not eq related but tangentially relevant; according to google, ultima online is "estimated to have" 318k players, and it still costs 13 bucks a month. How the shit this is possible I'm not sure.

Like a lot of people my mmo progression went UO -> Everquest -> Everquest 2 for about a year. Then P99.
