Star Wars: The Old Republic has as many as 350,000 users playing at once according to Baird Equity Research.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, analyst Colin Sebastian stated the early success of Star Wars: The Old Republic is evidence that “multiple million-users MMOs” can co-exist – an idea that many have believed impossible after a seeming monopoly had been created in subscription-based MMOs by Blizzard.
