The Witcher 3 was announced recently and we have tons of info on the game here. In new interview with GameInformer, VP of business development Michal Nowakowski for CD Projekt RED, revealed that they wanted the third game to rival Skyrim and Dragon Age in sales.
Earlier we had revealed that the series had reached 5 million in sales, and considering its pedigree it certainly deserves a lot more. The Witcher 3 is a next gen title and will be released on the PC, PS4 and the Xbox 720.
“There’s a certain amount of things which you can do with PR,” Nowakowski said. “But there are limits to that. Without solid support and a solid budget – which we believe we can secure with the right partnership – it’s really difficult to achieve numbers like some of our competition… Dragon Age, the Skyrim franchise and whatnot.”
“Are we that much behind them in terms of the quality of the games? Of course we’ve got a lot to learn. We do know that, but I really do think that we can deliver a game of at least similar quality, if not better of course.
“Our target is to be better, always. We always had ambitions to be at the top level in terms of quality of build, but also to be independent. That’s very important for us.”
Do you think it will hit the sales mark? Let us know in the comments section below.
