CD Projekt Red’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt once held the record for Game of the Year award, so it deservedly sold well even before the Netflix show arrived. However, Henry Cavill’s interpretation of Geralt did provide an incredible boost, as the game’s sales jumped from 20 million copies in 2015 to last year in the months leading up to the show. 40 million copies in the summer. You’d think things would slow down from there, but that’s far from the case.

Even more impressive, the entire Witcher franchise has sold 75+ million copies, which means the third game is two-thirds of them. It’s no wonder The Witcher 4, The Witcher Remake, and several spinoffs are in the works, considering this massive and continuing success.
