CD Projekt RED announces that The Witcher franchise has now sold over four million copies across all platforms between The Witcher and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. "I’m still amazed with the result we have achieved with The Witcher franchise," said Adam Badowski, head of CD Projekt RED studio. "Many gamers on many platforms have been drawn to the vivid and complex world we have created. In the gaming world summer means a lot of great, hot deals. So if you still don’t own the game look out for both retail and digital special offers. 'The Witcher' and 'The Witcher 2' are great, robust RPGs, that every true gamer should own."

That said, it wouldn't surprise me if the Xbox version didn't sell very well. Nine times out of ten, a delayed port will not sell well, regardless of platform. This is why Ubisoft is retarded for delaying all their PC ports. This is also why CD Projekt's future games will be launched simultaneously on all platforms. That and the Witcher series still seems to be kind of niche. I still find PC players who haven't even heard of it. Compared to other series, TES being the first one that pops into my head, it just doesn't have the name recognition. Still great to hear they're doing well though, they're doing awesome things all across the board and are really pulling no punches with support for PC players.
