CCP Games continues to show subscriber growth in its space-based MMO EVE Online. Today the developer sent over a press release announcing that today, the sixth anniversary of the game's launch on May 6, 2003, the game has secured 300,000 subscribers (not including trial subscriptions). That's a 22 percent growth in players since the beginning of 2009.
Part of that growth was due to the launch of a retail box edition of EVE Online (via publisher Atari) which contained all of the game's content including its latest free expansion Apocrypha. In addition, the game has reached a new record of concurrent users with 53,850 players at one time on the game's single server.
