For nylig udkom et interview i et polsk spilmagasin (oversat af NeoGAF), hvor designer Tom Chilton angiveligvis bekræftede, at antallet af abonnenter i World of Warcraft: Legion nu er over 10 millioner:
"Currently, [our subscriber number] is around 10.1 million. You know, it's difficult to say what the future will bring. We have an internal competitor, Overwatch, but it's possible it'll get even higher than 12 million. There are plenty of potential takers and there are over 100 million World of Warcraft accounts."
Det lyder alt sammen meget imponerende, men Polygon kontaktede Blizzard, som derigennem fortalte at tallet er en misforståelse.
"It was a misquote or some kind of misunderstanding on the part of the journalist."
Vi kender derfor ikke de præcise tal.
