With the launch of the series based on the same novel, The Witcher, on the Netflix platform, the game is back in the spotlight again on the Steam store, by breaking the record for the most number of players playing at the same time, with a number exceeding one hundred thousand. As the game could not achieve this number at the time of its release or when it won the best game.
And Xbox announced earlier that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt would be coming to Xbox Game Pass subscribers on December 19th. This coincided with the release of The Witcher series on Netflix, based on the same novel. And CD Projekt Red studio stated on its official website that subscribers will be able to download the game with 16 free add-ons.
The Witcher 3 won the Best Game of 2015 award, and it received an average rating of 93 on Metacritic. Although the game and the series are adapted from the novel The Witcher by Polish novelist Andrzej Sapkowski, the events are different, given that the series relies on the original novel in telling the story, while the game takes place in a different time period beyond the events of the novel.
