CD Projekt RED has confirmed in its latest financial report that critically acclaimed fantasy role-playing series The Witcher has sold over 33 million copies worldwide.
Unsurprisingly, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has taken the lion’s share of sales, generating more than 11 times as much revenue as its predecessor, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. That title in turn brought in over four times as much revenue as the original game, which released back in 2007.
In addition, a breakdown of performance for The Witcher 3 (via DualShockers) confirms that the open-world fantasy sequel sold more copies on PlayStation 4 in 2015 than any other platform, while PC outperformed other formats in 2016 and 2017. The Xbox One version sold the least during the same three-year period.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released on PS4, PC, and Xbox One in May 2015 and received two major expansions, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine. Furthermore, protagonist Geralt of Rivia is due to make a guest appearance in SoulCalibur VI later this year.
