Five years on from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s initial release and Geralt of Rivia is still managing to attract loads of new fans. Last year saw CD Projekt RED bring the game to the Nintendo Switch<\/a>, opening the door for a whole new platform\u2019s worth of players to experience the massive (and massively-acclaimed) open-world RPG for the first time, and from the look of it, that move has been paying off pretty nicely.<\/p>\n

The company touched upon the game\u2019s performance during its latest earnings call with investors this week. There, CEO Adam Kicinski revealed that its revenue this year has seen a noticeable increase over the year prior. Much of that, he said, is due to the popularity of the Netflix Witcher<\/em> series<\/a> attracting new fans to the game series, as well as the general boost that video games sales have received as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic forcing people to stay home more.<\/p>\n

Outside of these factors, though, The Witcher 3<\/em> has been doing very well on the Switch, with Kocinski highlighting its success in particular. While he didn\u2019t go into specifics with sales figures, he nevertheless called it a \u201cnice revenue driver\u201d and said that it \u201cperformed really well.\u201d Of course, the game has benefitted from an extended period of time without competition from CD Projekt RED\u2019s next big title, Cyberpunk 2077<\/em>, which has been delayed multiple times from its original April release. That being said, with all of the new major games that have come out\u00a0in 2020<\/a>, it\u2019s still impressive that the Switch re-release was able to hold its own.<\/p>\n

It also helps that The Witcher 3<\/em> boasts one of the most impressive Switch ports of any game<\/a>, somehow managing to squeeze one of the technically-demanding RPGs ever made onto a 32GB cartridge with only a few major visual downgrades. Add to that the fact that it can now be taken on the go, and it\u2019s easy to see why fans new and old have been flocking to it.<\/p>\n

Better yet, CD Projekt RED has continued to support it, with the Switch version getting updates as recently as last month<\/a>. Despite being on lower-end technology, it seems like the port is just as valuable to the company as the game\u2019s older, more powerful versions.<\/p>\n

While Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> looks set to be CD Projekt RED\u2019s biggest moneymaker in the coming year, the company isn\u2019t moving on from Geralt just yet, as it recently confirmed that The Witcher 3<\/em> will be getting ports for the PS5 and Xbox Series X next year<\/a>, making it even easier for newcomers to dive in.<\/p>\n

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em><\/strong> is available for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions coming in 2021.<\/p>\n
