The Witcher Hits 4M Sold

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."

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.

Not that its rock solid, but perhaps a decent guess at the console version of sales

Yikes. With some of the shit that seems to sell decently on consoles, I would have thought that getting a game of this quality would have sold better than this. Is it the 2 in the title without the first being on consoles? Is it they hold a grudge that they didn't get it first instead of PC? Sigh.

All that wasted development time and resources. Just sad.

Anyway, I love the series and am looking forward to Cyberpunk and Witcher 3.




I wonder if he reads them, or if it's just for show.

What he said!

I wonder how many Xbox copies have been sold thus far.

Congrats to CDP, but between both games (and a console version of W2 thrown in), I thought it would have been higher.

At any rate, really looking forward to Cyberpunk...
