After conquering the Chinese gaming market, Blizzard has their sights set on Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. Following a successful beta testing program in these territories that exceeded 140,000 players, World of Warcraft is now available for retail purchase and download. WoW's worldwide customer base is currently at 4.5 million.
It will be interesting to see if Blizzard has any plans to introduce Asian-themed characters in the WoW
universe similar to Sony's reimagination of EverQuest
II East.
