World of Warcraft: Forever has been in the wild for one week, and now we have all kinds of stats to sink our teeth into as they relate to the most popular races, classes, and faction in the latest version of developer Blizzard’s MMORPG.
Forever launched November 4, becoming the biggest launch in WoW history by concurrent and returning players. Aside from that fact, Blizzard hasn’t shared additional information on exactly how many characters have been made or what classes are most popular.
For that, we turn to Raider.IO, a WoW stat-tracking website more commonly used in the modern version of the game to provide rankings and details related to raids and Mythic+ progression.
A snapshot of WoW: Forever stats after one week.
According to the site, close to 3.9 million characters have been created across all regions and rulesets so far. Around 48% of those characters are on the Alliance, with nearly 52% being on the Horde.
The most popular two races aren’t all that surprising–undead and humans. Despite being the most boring choice imaginable, humans have always been a popular choice in WoW Classic thanks to their strong passives and the ability to be most classes.
