Can you believe it? The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt just turned seven years old. Where has the time gone? Since its launch on May 19, 2015, The Witcher 3 has racked up a plethora of awards, including Game of the Year, and has sold over 40 million copies worldwide. There are plenty of reasons for the game’s success, but arguably the most impressive thing is its world-building, which is enhanced thanks to an abundance of little details, quirky characters, a gripping gameplay loop, and absurdly beautiful visuals. Even in 2022, The Witcher 3 is more immersive than most contemporary open-world RPGs.
