Starcraft II Sells 1.8 Million Copies on Day One

         There’s a chance for Starcraft II to be the game of the year especially after looking at the fact that they’ve sold out 1.8 million copies on the first day and that too in the US and Europe only!

          VGChartz estimates that the given number of copies were sold in both physical retail stores and as battle.net downloads. This figure does not include players in Korea where it is virtually impossible to accurately estimate how many people will have purchased the game due to the way in which it is sold – mainly via time cards and also with Blizzard announcing that World of Warcraft users with an active account in Korea would be able to play the game free of charge.

       While Starcraft II would be an expected title for gamers who loved, but were forced to forget about Starcraft as long as twelve years back, it will be interesting to see how Starcraft II is received in India, especially looking at the World of Warcraft fans all around.
