The number comes from developer Monolith Productions who revealed some stats for Shadow Of War. Aside from the game having 1.5 million active users, the studio has revealed that 3.46 million player forts have been sieged.
Other stats include 3.3 Billion Orcs slain, 193 million Orcs dominated, 3.65 Million betrayals, and 13.3 million Orcs have been shamed till now in Shadow Of War.
While Shadow Of War might have fallen short of sales expectations but, it seems that the game has a healthy player base in an era of gaming where player engagement is very important for publishers and developers.
