The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Sold 1.1 Million Copies in 2011

CD Projekt has revealed that their The Witcher sequel shifted a total of 1.1 million copies in 2011, most of which were through retail, while its predecessor The Witcher sold 400,000 copies in the same period.
Fantastic PC (and soon Xbox 360) RPG, The Witcher 2, sold 1,110,055 copies last year, developer CD Projekt Red has revealed.

Of those copies, 270,000 were sold via digital distribution platforms: 40,000 on GOG.com, which leaves the lion's share of the remainder presumably to Steam (numbers not disclosed).

But most "remarkable" to CDPR managing director Adam Badowski, was that 401,543 copies of The Witcher 1 were sold last year.

"I have to admit, though, that the sales results for The Witcher, five years on from the game's premier, are remarkable," he commented.
