Netflix’s ‘The Witcher’ helps fuel 554% growth in The Witcher 3 sales

The Witcher was a massive television event in 2019, and its success has had a sizable ripple effect across mediums. Fans of the show have spun out to boost sales for both the book series and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt game.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which originally debuted back in May 2015, was up 554% year-over-year in the U.S. in December 2019. During that same period, The Witcher book series sales jumped 562% in the U.S. market. NPD analyst Sartori Bernbeck notes this is evidence of how companies can thrust a relatively niche property into even bigger levels of success.
