I wonder how much the corona quarantine helped to boost these numbers.
Some other interesting bits is how battlegrounds in Hearthstone are still doing well, but I find that constructed play is getting overshadowed because of it. If you look at the most viewed Hearthstone streamers, almost none of them even play constructed anymore. And considering that they just released a new expansion that for the first time added a new class, I was expecting it to be doing well enough to deserve a mention in these reports.
Also still no HotS news. I don’t even remember who the last new hero was.
Hahaha, all the salt and mental gymnastics from the crowd wanting WoW to fail. It was pretty clear that WoW's doing strong on both fronts between people staying at home and the buffs given to Live. Surprised that the East is singled out as going strong with Classic whilst the West with Live though.
- Activision had 102 million MAUs in the first quarter. This is down from 128 million MAU in Q4 2019.
- Blizzard had 32 million MAUs in the first quarter. This is the same as Q4 2019.
Just to repeat it. They're counted separately, Blizzard's remained stable, Activision has lost almost as many as Blizzard retained despite corona. Woop!

WoW players are all trash? M+ leavers? Pug raid fails? You don't have stuff to do? WoW has become a solo player game for you? People don't talk anymore? Everyone's toxic? I have a simple solution, just for you!
Get social. Join a guild.
Quater 1 is jan, feb, march btw.
and the qaurntine didnt start till march in a lot of places (april in others), so not very much.
Q2 is when we will see how much the qaunrtine did, (q2 is april, may, june)
(q3 is july, august, sept, and q4 is oct, nov, dec, just for reference)
Also where the hell is the Warcraft 3 Reforged report?
Pretty sure it's going to be 6 months. They'll want to release this for Black Friday end November for US sales and with Christmas around the corner for global sales.
I mean, even if the game wouldn't need another 6-7 months to develop, from a sales point of view games generally sell better in the oct/nov/dec months.
And they're probably already working on patch 9.1 by now.
No. The holding company ActivisionBlizzard owns three dev companies, Activision, Blizzard, and King. All separate entities. Activision holds no sway over Bkizzard. AB does.

Yup. I think most mean AB but say Activision. It's a pet peeve of mine.
