Neverwinter Hits 15 Million Registered Players Across All Platforms

Neverwinter has been a rather popular game over the years, but it's not that often that we get reminded exactly how popular it is. Cryptic Studios announced today that 15 million players have registered for its Dungeons and Dragons-based MMORPG across all platforms.

Perfect World Entertainment Senior Vice President of Game Publishing Yoon Im had the following to say about the announcement.

We were thrilled to see that the registered player count for Neverwinter has crossed the 15 million mark. This is a huge milestone for both Cryptic Studios and Perfect World Entertainment. We’ve seen Neverwinter grow so much since it first entered Open Beta and can’t wait to share what the game has in store for adventurers in the near future.

Wizards of the Coast Dungeons and Dragons Brand Director Nathan Stewart also weighed in.

The success of Neverwinter on so many platforms and in so many countries shows how strong the D&D global community is. Partnering with Cryptic and Perfect World to bring our annual stories to life in such a visibly stunning way has allowed D&D players to experience the Forgotten Realms like never before.

Cryptic Studios Neverwinter Executive Producer Gordon Fong also provided a statement.

We look forward to continuing our development and realization of the Forgotten Realms to deliver a steady stream of new and exciting content to all our players. Whether they are hardcore D&D enthusiasts, MMO players sharing experiences with friends, or solo RPG fans; we want Neverwinter to be a welcoming place for anyone looking for adventure and entertainment.

Neverwinter is currently available in more than 110 countries. Most recently, its PlayStation 4 version went live in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, we don't have any stats that break down where the 15 million users are geographically.
