Eidos and Funcom today announced that over 700,000 people have signed up for Age of Conan. The game continues to sell well on all major European markets and is the number one PC game in the U.S., according to the NPD. Funcom contends that the game is now the number two subscription MMO in the western world, behind World of Warcraft.

"That Age of Conan remains #1 in retail stores several weeks after release is of incredible importance to us, and proves that the game has a large potential beyond the early adopters," said Morten Larssen, VP of Sales & Marketing in Funcom. "With more than 700.000 accounts created so far we have a fantastic platform to build from, and we will continue our marketing spend to further drive numbers in the months to come. It also means that Funcom can dedicate significant development resources on evolving the game even further, naturally giving us a great hope for the future of Age of Conan."
