The Netflix series and patches have clearly given it a big boost in the last 3 years though!
Never forgot how my wife randomly came home from work and watched me play 3 for over an hour(she's never done that) Then that weekend she asked me to start a new game for her and the rest was history. It's her GOAT, and as a huge reader she loves the storylines, characters, and overall world of W3. Awesome game
Too lazy to check. Report from today.
A well deserved massive success. The Witcher 3 is really in its own league when it comes to story, world building and quest quality.
The actual surprise here for me is that the first two games sold 25 million (I'm gonna guess mostly 2).
Doesn't really mean much. First two games have been on sale for 1-5 EUR multiple times. Even 3 has been priced below 10 EUR often.

Also interesting to see the current dev distribution. The new Witcher game is slowly ramping up

It would have sold 10 million more if they'd included Iorveth ;)
Well deserved, and still the greatest gaming experience of my life.
I'll never forget reading pre-release interviews with the devs who cited the Gothic games as an influence, and said they intended to make a game bigger than Skyrim but with the depth of The Witcher 2. As impressed as I was with their prior games, I didn't think this would be possible and thought it was just marketing hype. It's still to this day one of the very few games that absolutely lived up to the hype, with writing and characterisation that is still absolutely spectacular to this day.
Also special shoutout to CDPR for including the full game on disc for the PC release and absolutely cramming the game package with goodies, along with a heartfelt thank you note. As someone who was on a slow data-capped connection at the time, this mattered a huge deal to me.

I feel bad but this is largely what made me bounce off the game 3 hours in :/ someday I'll give it another go, I know I'm missing out

Phantom Liberty is unimaginably hyped for me.
Unimaginable because three years ago I fucking despised 2077.
Amazing achievement for an amazing game !
I really need to get into the next gen version to finally play the Blood & Wine and Hearts of Stone expansions.

Yeah, I wonder how many sales are from double dipping. I have it on Steam and on Xbox, and had been quite tempted to get it on Switch.
So well deserved. In my top 3 best games of all time.
I doubt it. Skyrim was at 30M when they released the Special Edition. Since then there was the Switch release and Anniversary Edition version, on top of the Special Edition sales. I would guess Skyrim is closer to the 60M mark

Phantom Liberty having that much development allocation for that long... that's going to be another game. Sheesh.
