Witcher series sells 4 million

The Witcher franchise has sold 4 million copies between its first and second game, across a variety of platforms.

The Witcher series has sold more than 4 million copies across its two main series titles, according to CD Projekt RED. The combined sales of The Witcher and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings have hit the healthy number across the PC, Mac, and Xbox 360.

That number doesn't include the iOS applications like The Witcher: Versus or the interactive comic for Witcher 2. Those numbers will be increasing by a bit soon. The Mac version of the second game is due out in the fall, and the Xbox 360 version will be released in Japan on August 23.

"I'm still amazed with the result we have achieved with The Witcher franchise," said studio head Adam Badowski, in the announcement. "Many gamers on many platforms have been drawn to the vivid and complex world we have created. In the gaming world summer means a lot of great, hot deals. So if you still don't own the game look out for both retail and digital special offers."
