Dragon Age was on PS3, the Witcher 3 is the first time this franchise will appear on a PS platform, whereas Xbox guys got Witcher 2 on 360. This does mean the Witcher is not quite the same as Dragon Age. OTOH it does seem like WRPGs are pulling stronger numbers on PS4. relative to install base Dragon Age: Inquisition has done better on PS4 in the USA than on Xb one (according to VGC, which of course is highly prone to error with software). Despite the exclusive marketing deal in favour of Xb one.

a lot of xbox 360 guys are now ps4 guys, last gen is not this gen, a game like witcher won;t propell x1 over ps4 in May, if anything ps4 will get a bigger boost, if any console gets one at all.

Witcher 3(PS4) is at #257 on Amazon, and XB1 version is #1040.

Marketing deals aren't going to matter when there's such a big disparity. XBOX One instalbase just isn't as intrested in anything that's not a shooter, and even those sell better on PS4 now.
