Patch 11.0.5 Now Live
Major balance changes to all classes, new dungeon difficulty, and holiday events are now available. Check out the full patch notes for details.
As of 2024, The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) remains one of the most popular MMORPGs, though exact player counts are not publicly disclosed by Zenimax Online Studios or Bethesda. However, estimates and trends can be derived from available data: Steam Charts (PC) ESO averages 15,00025,000 concurrent players on Steam, with peaks during events or expansions. - Note: Many players use the standalone launcher (not tracked by Steam), so actual PC numbers are likely higher. Console & Other Platforms ESO is strong on PlayStation and Xbox, with cross-platform play (excluding PC). Active communities suggest similar or higher numbers than PC. Total Active Players (Estimate) Industry analysts suggest 35 million monthly active users (MAU) across all platforms, factoring in expansions (Necrom in 2023, Gold Road in 2024) and consistent updates. Events & Expansions Player counts spike during releases (e.g., Gold Road in June 2024) and seasonal events (Whitestrakes Mayhem, New Life Festival). Why Exact Numbers Are Unavailable: ESO uses a megaserver system, blending players seamlessly. Subscription (ESO Plus) and non-subscription models complicate tracking. Bethesda rarely shares live data, but acknowledges "millions" of players annually.

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
