Recently, the 10th anniversary of "The Witcher 3" was in its tenth anniversary. CDPR co-CEO Michal Nowakowski revealed that they initially expected sales of the game to be 6 million, and were worried that the "Batman: Arkham Knight" which was released at the same time would win in a crushing way.

However, the fact is that the sales of "The Witcher 3" far exceeded expectations, and it achieved this goal in just one quarter.At present, the cumulative sales of this game have exceeded 50 million copies, making it one of the best-selling games in history.With the popularity of the Wizard series and the release of the next-generation version, the sales of "Witcher 3" may still be growing slowly.

But the CDPR team did not expect things to develop this way in 2015.In fact, Nowakowski said he was very worried that the Batman: Arkham Knight, which was released at the same time, would steal the market share of "The Witcher 3".But in fact, although Batman: Arkham Knights was well received, it only sold 5 million copies in the first quarter, and Geralt eventually defeated Batman.

Nowakowski admitted that at that time the CDPR team underestimated the potential of original IP against superhero IP.Now with the advancement of "The Witcher 4", CDPR will bring better works to players.
