World of Warcraft Classic officially went live 15 minutes ago and every single one of the game's ~12 servers have over 10,000+ queues to get in. This post is going up as I sit in queue on Incendius and I'm excited to get on. To try reducing queue times Blizzard added 4 new North American and 5 new European servers on launch, but those servers are all full as well. World of Warcraft currently has ~1.1M concurrent viewers on Twitch with popular streamers like Asmongold reaching over 250,000+ viewers.

World of Warcraft Classic Announcement

Given the huge popularity of of WoW Classic on launch day, I suspect Blizzard will release launch statistics in the next 48 hours. While Blizzard stopped reporting Subscription numbers years ago, I suspect they'll report stats for WoW classic simply because they'll want to show off its success.

To celebrate the launch of WoW Classic and 15 years of World of Warcraft, Blizzard released the following video:

A Toast to 15 Years
