The studio behind The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 have posted record financial results.

The Polish studio can be proud: thanks to the long-term success of The Witcher 3, CD Projekt have announced that it has earned more than $50 million in sales from the Steam version of the game since its release in October 2018.

These are impressive results, surely boosted in recent months by the Netflix series, which has also proved to be a success.

Today, CDPR can pride itself on being the second largest video game studio in Europe, just behind Ubisoft, with an estimated capital of $8 billion — a figure reported by LordParsifal on Reddit.

This performance appears unlikely to stop, since the sums raised now enable the studio to recover 80% of each sale of the game via Steam. This is positive news to be contrasted with the studio's statements, whose managers don't seem to have any problem admitting to the intensive crunch their teams are immersed in.

With the Cyberpunk 2077 project still in the pipeline for many months to come, it's easy to imagine that the developers at the game's bedside are still struggling.

The accumulated revenue from sales of The Witcher 3 on @Steam platform for the period of time between October 1st 2018 and today has exceeded 50M USD. As a result, we are now getting 80% on any subsequent sales of TW3 on Steam.
