Yeah i think it is pretty obvious,based on the information we have,that PS4 is the best selling platform for the witcher 3.

PC will have better legs probably but i'm not sure if will be more profitable(lower price point)


Depends on how much PC sales went through GOG directly, since that's owned by CDPR.



Awesome! I hear its a great game from a lot of people, so it deserves the sales!

I'm one of those four million. Spent a bit more too as I got the CE, so you're welcome, CD Projekt RED.

my guess:
2m on pc
1.3m on ps4
0.7 m on xbox


SteamSpy has PC below 600k. Add in some sales "lost" to GOG in the numbers, and it probably sold a little over 600k.

Something like...
PS4: 2.4 million
Xbone: 1 million
PC: 600k

That would be a pretty good guess.

Do you really beleive that GOG sold as much or more than steam?

 

Let say it sold as much...that means ~1.2 million(Steam + GOG).With physical + amazon,etc.. it would be,at best case scenario,~1.5 million.

 

Which means 2.5 for PS4/Xone.Then,based in the information we have,like PS4 version selling 2:1 against Xone in UK or PS4 selling 90+% in japan, is safe to say that PS4 sold at least 2/3 of the console share WW.

 

So at the best case scenario(for pc) PC version sold 1.5,PS4 sold 1.8,Xone sold 700k.

 

My guess:

PS4 1.8 - 2 million

PC   1.2 - 1.5 million

Xone 500k - 1 million


We'te talking profitability here, right? Cause CDPR is getting 70% from Steam, 100% from GOG and less than 50% from retail - where majority of console sales are.

 I don't think there's a single multiplat in this day and age that sells better on PC over console. I'm guessing 2 million PS4, 1 million XBone, 1 million PC.
