The Witcher 3 blows past Skyrim on bestselling games of all time list

If you were wondering why CD Projekt is releasing a new expansion for The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt over a decade after its initial release, here’s the most straightforward answer: The game has officially surpassed 65 million units in lifetime sales. For context, that makes it the eighth highest-selling video game of all time, just behind Terraria and ahead of the original Super Mario. Bros. The Witcher 3 still has a long way to go to catch Tetris’ near-unbeatable 520 million lifetime sales, though.
