The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt developer, CD Projekt Red, took to its forums to reveal financial data pertaining to the title.
Breaking up sales between physical and digital copies, it was revealed that 25% of sales were from digital copies of the game, making up 50% of The Witcher 3‘s total revenue. The disparity between sales and revenue is due to the fact that CD Projekt Red owns the GOG.com platform, and as such, makes more of a profit on purchases made there.
Of all sales, 30% were on PC and 70% were between PS4 and Xbox One.
The financial data excludes the proceeds from Expansion Passes and pre-orders.
CD Projekt Red also noted that 80% of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt‘s marketing costs were covered by the distributors, including Warner Bros., Bandai Namco and other local partners.
