The game continues to see regular activity among genre enthusiasts interested in old-school MUD experiences. While it is not a modern blockbuster, its persistence and devoted fanbase mean it likely maintains a few hundred daily active players, based on publicly visible community activity, forum posts, and continued development updates.

Estimated Daily Players

~400 thousand

We estimate that World of Warcraft Classic has currently around 400k players daily.

World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019, is an MMORPG developed by Blizzard Entertainment. Its daily active player base remains substantial due to Blizzard's regular content updates, ongoing nostalgia for classic WoW, and inclusion in the WoW subscription alongside the retail version. While player numbers are lower than at launch, it still attracts hundreds of thousands daily across multiple regions and modes (Classic and its various expansions).
