The game has only been on sale for little over a week officially, but Funcom's long-awaited Age of Conan MMO already looks like being one of the PC's fastest selling titles. Over 400,000 players have now entered the game, according to the developer.

"The initial sales and reviews are very encouraging, and it’s great to see that so many are enjoying Age of Conan," beamed Funcom CEO Trond Arne Aas.

"This is just the beginning, and we already look forward to massive updates and cool new features. We believe our focus on making Conan unique and groundbreaking is a key reason for the initial success. This is a focus we will keep and reinforce, and players can expect continued quality and innovation as we enter a new era for the game."

World of Warcraft is of course the market leader with 10 million subscribers, but 400,000 is not a bad start whichever way you cut it.
