The two leading video game companies are Activision Blizzard and Electronic Arts, Inc., which hold 19.5 percent and 18.4 percent of the video game market in the United States and the European Union, respectively. Blizzard Entertainment, a subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, has produced the best-selling franchises Diablo, Warcraft, and Starcraft. In fact, "World of Warcraft" is one of the most played massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) and has maintained its position for years. EA is behind many hits such as The Sims franchises, "Star Wars: The Old Republic," and a full series of sports games through their EA Sports subsidiary, including the NCAA Football series, updated annually. Games from these publishers tend to remain among the top ten most popular online games, but the independent "sandbox" game Minecraft is gradually emerging as one of the most beloved available video games. Although it entered the video game market without publisher support and without spending a cent on advertising, Minecraft has already sold more than 15 million copies worldwide. Strategy games, such as Starcraft and Civilization, were among the best-selling computer games in 2013, while action games were the best-selling type of games in the console market.
