CD Projekt Red's joint CEO Michał Nowakowski has provided an update on the performance of the Witcher franchise, confirming that every mainline entry in the series has now surpassed 10 million copies sold. This announcement offers insight into the long-term commercial success of the earlier titles, which have often been overshadowed by the monumental success of the third instalment.

The sales figures were shared during a session on X, where Nowakowski (via Polonizacje) responded to a list of the most successful Polish video games curated by Michał Król. This list included The Witcher 3 in first place with 60 million units sold, followed by Cyberpunk 2077 on 35 million and Dying Light with 20 million.

According to the latest figures, the original Witcher game has sold 10 million units, while its sequel, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, has sold 15 million. When added to the staggering 60 million copies achieved by The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the core trilogy now accounts for over 85 million sales worldwide.

By providing these numbers, it's clear that the franchise's popularity isn't concentrated solely in the final chapter. While the company did not specify an exact total for each spin-off in the series, such as Gwent or Thronebreaker, the combined performance of the mainline games puts the entire Witcher franchise within striking distance of the 100 million-unit mark. This renewed momentum comes as the studio continues development on the next Witcher trilogy and a remake of the first game, alongside a rumoured fourth DLC for The Witcher 3…

KitGuru says: The commercial endurance of the first two Witcher games is particularly impressive given their age and platform limitations at launch. Seeing the first game hit 10 million and the second hit 15 million proves that there is a massive audience still discovering the roots of the series.

Legendary Tales is a dark fantasy RPG with physics-based combat that's just out on Quest.

Almost two years after its initial release on PC VR and PlayStation VR2, Legendary Tales is available now on the Meta Quest 3 and 3S. We found it has "satisfying" physics-based combat across its extensive dungeon-crawling, with the promise of more than 15 hours of content. Fully playable solo or in online co-op mode, its quest-driven storyline can be experienced with friends from the beginning all the way through to the end. While no specific port features were mentioned, developer Urban Wolf Games mentioned the Quest version has “the most advanced system updates that are not released on PCVR and PSVR2 yet.”

Akin to a Dark Souls experience in VR, the core gameplay mechanic of Legendary Tales is the exploration of loot-filled dungeons complete with skeletons, orcs, and challenging boss fights. Its focus on a hands-on crafting system allows players to collect materials to craft weapons, as well as dabble in alchemy to use various potions to aid in battle. The physics-based combat focuses on precise parrying to retaliate against enemy attacks and hopefully leave every encounter unscathed. Finally, its detailed skill tree gives a bevy of specializations as a rogue, mage, warrior, or a personalized hybrid build.

In a heartfelt Reddit post the day before the game’s release this week, the developer acknowledged the bad timing while also talking about their personal experience regarding developing for virtual reality and its challenges. A DLC expansion named “Dawn of History” with new items, maps, and enemies is expected later this year.

Legendary Tales is out now for Meta Quest, PS VR2, and Steam.

Fun Train says it is not renewing its license to publish Tarzan VR from Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. and delisting the game from all platforms.

The Tarzan game was panned and earned a rare "avoid" rating from us in our review, titled "lord of the fumble." The publisher is dropping the game to $4.99 where they can until it's gone, claiming that if you buy it, it will "remain in your library and fully playable" after it is no longer for sale new. Fun Train "will not be supporting the game beyond Jan 31st 2026."

Fun Train is associated as publisher with The Exorcist VR and Twilight Zone VR as well as BlackGate and Jungle Man. BlackGate in particular is off to a strong start on the Quest Store after releasing late last year. Fun Train says its other games aren't affected.

'While we would like to renew the license and keep Tarzan available for new players, the current state of the VR market makes it increasingly difficult to keep legacy titles active across platforms." The email from Fun Train CEO Douglas Nabors notes. "With recent industry-wide studio closures and layoffs—particularly at Meta—it’s clear the market is under real pressure. At this stage, renewing the license for this IP is simply not commercially viable."

The game will no longer be for sale from January 31st on Quest, Steam, and PlayStation stores.

While we warned players to avoid this one and they did, I just spent $5 on Steam for the version of the game originally developed by Stonepunk Studios to keep in my library as a curiosity. What happens when I try to launch it on the Steam Frame in standalone? I'm not sure, but I wanted to have that piece of VR history in my library before it disappeared.

If you haven't had the chance to hear the song made for the Tarzan VR trailer, do give it a listen below before bidding farewell to "the lord of the fumble."

Stellar Blade achieved a ton of success when the PS5 exclusive arrived back in 2024; doubly so once the PC version released a year later – setting records for the PlayStation-published action title on Steam. With a sequel confirmed and rumours that studio SHIFT UP is planning to port the game to additional platforms, we’ve now gotten more up-to-date sales data; with analysts claiming it to have exceeded 6 million copies sold.

As reported by the Korean publication DigitalToday, updated sales data from the (primarily mobile-focused) analytics firm Sensor Tower claims that SHIFT UP’s 2024 hack-and-slash Stellar Blade has sold an estimated 6.1 million copies since its launch on PS5 back in April of said year.

According to the report, the game has sold 3.7 million copies on PS5 and 2.4 million on PC – especially impressive given that the latter only arrived in June of 2025.

Of course, it is worth noting that these sales figures should be taken with somewhat of a pinch of salt and will not be 100% accurate unless it comes from Sony or SHIFT UP themselves.

Officially, the last figures we got was back in June, when it was revealed that Stellar Blade had sold 1 million copies on PC in 3 days – pushing total units sold past 3 million.

Regardless, there’s no denying that Stellar Blade was a success, especially being the first console game from SHIFT UP. It will be interesting to see how sales continue to trend into the future, especially with rumours claiming that the game may be ported to additional platforms.

KitGuru says: Are you a fan of Stellar Blade? Did you play it on PC or PS5? What are your expectations for the sequel? Let us know down below.

The Life is Strange series is an excellent franchise helping to keep the choice-based adventure genre alive with interesting stories full of heart, relatable characters and a nostalgic vibe. Following on from 2024’s Double Exposure, Square Enix has now confirmed that they will be unveiling the 6th entry in the series next week.

Taking to YouTube, the official Life is Strange channel has teased that the franchise is set to return this year, posting an upcoming livestream set to go live on the 20th of January.

While there is very little to go on so far, the description for the livestream reads as follows: “Separate the real from the rumor… Join us for the exclusive reveal of the next Life is Strange game.”

While this could be a hint towards the game itself, the description is likely in reference to a recent leak by the PEGI ratings board for a game called Life is Strange: Reunion.

Curiously, the description for the title was eerily similar to that of the very first LiS entry – and so this comment by Square could be them trying to hint that there’s more to the game than the leaked description let on.

Either way, we won’t have to wait long to find out, with the Life is Strange livestream set to go live on the 20th of January at 5:30PM UK time.

KitGuru says: Are you excited for more Life is Strange? What did you think of the leaked description? Could it be legit, or is there more going on than it seems? Let us know your thoughts down below.
