The player directs the actions of Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter known as a Witcher. The fantasy world in which his adventures take place owes much to Polish history and Slavic mythology.
The game was both a critical and commercial success, selling over 8 million copies,[8] by September 2014. The third installment in the series, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, was released in May 2015.
