Age Of Conan Fighting On, Attracting New Players

By Alex Chen | January 01, 0001

For a while there, it appeared that Funcom’s Age of Conan was on its last legs. Players were leaving, servers were closing. But still, the game lives on!

Funcom’s latest financial report states that “a significant increase in new customers [[link]] in Q1 compared to Q4 has led to a stable and solid subscriber base”, meaning that the game’s launch in Eastern Europe and free trial offer seem to have done the trick.

Course, Funcom didn’t go so far as to reveal how many new subscribers there [[link]] were, exactly. Or how many have left over the same period. Or what the game’s exact player base is. [[link]] But still! Good news is good news, and the bad news can wait for another day.
