150,000 of those players are in the United States and Europe closed beta.

Despite the fact that World of Tanks is still in closed beta in the United States and Europe, the game has already reached 500,000 active players worldwide. According to an announcement that was just released by Wargaming.net, World of Tanks has 350,000 active players in Russia, where it was launched three months ago, and 150,000 active players in the US/EU closed beta. The press release also contains some interesting figures:

"The number of peak con-current users (PCCU) in Russia exceeded 43,000. In the West PCCU surpassed 10,000 players. On average each active gamer spends 3 hours and 20 minutes playing the game every day. 10 million battles have been fought since September."
