CCP Games, the game's Icelandic developer, today announced that more than 30,000 users were concurrently playing in a single gameworld, which it claims is a new world record. In the first day, more than 200,000 people registered for the game. The Chinese version of the game is run by Optic Communications and runs independently of the Western edition of EVE Online.
"It was quite amazing to see the population of EVE China exceed the population of Iceland in the second day of open beta testing." said Hilmar Veigar Pétursson, CEO of CCP, referring to the first day's more than 200,000 registered users.
