LinkedIn wrote a blog post on how they scaled their Play servers to scale to 100K connections per node:

There is no hard limit, what you'll encounter beyond that is OS imposed restrictions as described in the comments, these restrictions apply to all servers. I am aware of one person that, using a custom compiled Linux kernel, was able in a very contrived test environment to make a million connections to a single Play server node.
