AoC continues to dominate retail charts

The best selling PC game of May continues to hold the #1 spot in most markets. More than 700.000 gamers have registered an Age of Conan account so far and the number continue to increase.

Today Eidos and Funcom went out with a press release where they announced how Age of Conan continues to dominate the PC sales charts in all markets where the game is obtainable. The last weeks Conan has remained the overall number one PC game in most European markets. It has also performed well on several all-format charts. Within the US, AoC has conquered the #1 PC spot for the first two weeks of available NPD data.

“That Age of Conan remains #1 in retail stores several weeks after release is of incredible importance to us, and proves that the game has a large potential beyond the early adopters,” said Morten Larssen, VP of Sales & Marketing in Funcom. “With more than 700.000 accounts created so far we have a fantastic platform to build from, and we will continue our marketing spend to further drive numbers in the months to come. It also means that Funcom can dedicate significant development resources on evolving the game even further, naturally giving us a great hope for the future of Age of Conan.”

“We are incredibly pleased to see Age of Conan turning into an MMO phenomenon,” said Gaute Godager, Game Director on Age of Conan. “As an MMO company we know that a good start is just the beginning for a virtual world. All we care about now is to make Age of Conan into an even better game, and we have extensive plans to ensure that Age of Conan remains a top MMO alternative for many years to come.”
