Fantasy Westward Journey Online posts 1.66 million concurrent users

by Joel on March 29th, 2008

This one is definitely for the books. Fantasy Westward Journey, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed in China, has hit the magic number of 1.66 million in concurrent peak users.

According to online games portal 17173, this milestone is made doubly important as “the Chinese online game market has seen outstanding foreign products while locally produced games receive considerably less attention.”

“So many Chinese online game operators prefer to license Korean or American MMOs or are into the habit of copying classic games,” the portal said in an article. “Fantasy West Journey, as one of the few original games developed in China, has made a remarkable achievement, proving that Chinese online games can also be outstanding.”

Fantasy Westward Journey is based loosely on the famous Chinese folk tale Legend of West Journey. Aside from player-kill, treasure-hunting, and pet-raising, Fantasy Westward Journey also gives Chinese players a high level of interaction not commonly found in other MMORPGs.
