It's one of those games that keeps getting improvements via updates, so it's always a relevant title to pick up and play on the latest and greatest platforms.

Being a solid title also helps a ton.

I bought it on Switch, PC, Playstation 4, Xbox One and used the free update to upgrade it to next-gen machines.

Quadruple dipper here: first played on PS4, then once I upgraded my PC, bought it again, then The Switcher was released and just couldn't resist, and just few months ago the XBS version was on a massive sale ... and I did it again. No regrets. Played the living crap out of all of those versions.

Woah that's crazy the first two Witchers sold 25 million. I'd never even heard of the series until Witcher 3. I figured the first two sold like a million or two.

Witcher 3 is a timeless classic.
I’ve already played it multiple times on Switch alone.

Platinum’d it 3 times on PS4 and 1 time on PS5. One of my all time favorites, if not my all time favorite.

Definitely a great game. I hope we see the next main line entry sooner rather than later.
