‘The Witcher’ is officially one of the most successful game series of all time – CD Projekt Red

This performance puts The Witcher 3 in stiff competition with other best-selling games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Red Dead Redemption 2, which have sold more than 53 million copies.

The success of The Witcher franchise will continue, with CDPR releasing a next-gen update for The Witcher 3 in December while several other Witcher games are in the works. These include a re-release of the first Witcher game, a new Witcher trilogy, and a Venus codenamed “Project Sirius”. Let’s just hope these new titles will be better at launch than Cyberpunk 2077, though CDPR has largely fixed the game’s issues, and released a next-gen patch for it in February 2022.

We’ll soon be hearing more about Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, the game’s upcoming major expansion starring Idris Elba as one of the big names at Summer Game Fest, CDPR announced this week.

Netflix is ​​also betting on The Witcher franchise, renewing the TV series of the same name for a fifth season, although the third season has yet to start airing. Season 3 will be Henry Cavill’s last as Geralt, with Liam Hemsworth taking over the role from season 4.
