The largest community around World of Warcraft: Forever — Olympus — has crossed 40,000 members even before the game's launch on November 4, 2026. That's more than the active player count of some AAA titles — and the number keeps growing.

Olympus — the largest player community around World of Warcraft: Forever — has crossed 40,000 members even before the official launch. On Blizzard's official forum, one poster in the thread pointed out that the community already has over 25,000 people online at the same time. For comparison: that's more than the active player count of some AAA titles.

The Forever beta has been running since September 17, 2026, with release set for November 4 at 23:00 UTC (November 5 at 02:00 MSK). Olympus, meanwhile, is already growing ahead of launch. The community runs its own tool called Asmon for cross-realm coordination — forum users pointed it out precisely because ignoring that many players is no longer an option: at launch the community will easily cross 100,000 people.

Olympus has also come up in the context of a PvP tournament with a $50,000 prize pool running during the beta. In the EU forum's tournament thread, posters note that Olympus is probably the only community of this size on the test realms capable of organizing structured support for a participant.
