Blizzard Entertainment has confirmed in a press release today that the new World of Warcraft expansion, Wrath of the Lich King sold 2.8 million copies in its first 24 hours on sale, becoming the fastest selling PC game ever.
The past record holder… ironically… was the previous expansion, The Burning Crusade.
2We’re grateful for the incredible support that players around the world have continued to show for World of Warcraft,” said Blizzard boss Mike Morhaime.
“Wrath of the Lich King contains some of the best content we’ve created for the game so far, and we look forward to seeing even more players log in to experience it in the days ahead.”
A well deserved success for an epic series.

They’re so good the only records for them to beat is their own! xD
Truly impressive. I’ll see if I can get into the WoW world one of these days myself.
