For those of you keeping score at home. Blizzard Entertainment has just announced that they have now reached 5 million paying subscribers to World of Warcraft across the globe. In late July it was 3.5 million and then 4 million in late August. So 5 million is like, a lot more.

IRVINE, Calif. – December 19, 2005 – Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. today announced that World of WarcraftÃ‚Â®, its massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), has surpassed five million customers worldwide. The subscription-based MMORPG launched approximately one year ago in North America, Australia, and New Zealand and has since released in multiple countries throughout Europe and Asia.

So then... 5 million people paying roughly $12 - $15 per month would be $60 - $75 million each month. Perhaps if they work really hard they get to gross over a billion dollars next year.
