After a fun-filled launch night at thousands of midnight openings and a week for everyone to begin exploring the mysteries of Northrend, we're pleased to be able to share the first sales results for Wrath of the Lich King. In its first 24 hours of availability, the expansion sold over 2.8 million copies to become the new fastest-selling PC game of all time, eclipsing the previous record of nearly 2.4 million set by The Burning Crusade. For full details, check out the official announcement.
We'd like to extend our thanks to everyone in the global World of Warcraft community, whose enthusiasm has made this possible.
Did you contribute to the 2.8 million copies purchased on day one? If so, did you go to the midnight openings around the world to celebrate its launch? We'd love to hear your experience of it if you did, so feel free to comment!

this time i wasn't going to let it happen, and i decided i'm going for a Collectors Edition.
the day WotLK was announced i pre-ordered it and when the day arrived, i went to the midnight sale in Tel Aviv, Israel.
was actually pretty cool and i got to meet some nice guys...
My girlfriend didn't quite have the same fun standing there for an hour and a half as she doesn't play (god knows i've tried. ;) ), and i did have to wake up a few hours later for work, but all in all, was a nice experience and if all goes well, i'll be there again next year. :)
