The Witcher Sells a Million on ‘Dead’ Platform
CD Projekt has announced that their debut project The Witcher has sold over one million copies since its release twelve months ago. The studio notes that this number represents sales to “real, live people” playing on a platform some have declared “dead”.
"We created The Witcher with the intent of becoming an acclaimed and successful development studio that always made games for its fans; we spent more than $11 million developing The Witcher and the Enhanced Edition, and it sure is nice to make some of that money back!" said CEO Adam Kicinski.
The Enhanced Edition was released last month, offering graphical improvements, additional NPC models, improved load times and many other improvements.
CD Projekt also recently launched Good Old Games, a digital distribution platform for retro titles.
