Witcher 3 PC price at big retailers ranges from 28 to 60 Euro
Hi,
What is the official price of standard W3 PC version? It there any?
Steam sells it for 59,99 Euro
Amazon.de or Saturn.de sells it for 44,99 Euro
GOG.com sells it for 39,99 Euro
Saturn.pl sells it for 28,81 Euro (119 PLN). The 119 PLN are listed as the normal price, no discount/red price.
Some online shops sell the box version even as low as 26 Euro, but let’s just focus on the huge retailers, where you can be sure it’s no fake or against the law.
Now why these huge price differences? Why would anybody buy the game on Steam? It Steam using their monopoly/dominant position to charge more and therefore they are ripping us off?
Have only checked USA, UK, German and Polish prices. Not sure what it costs elsewhere, but as for the low price in Poland this isn’t a currency fluctuation problem. The conversion rate of PLN to Euro was stable with max changes of +/- 4,3% in the last 2 years.
Another think is that I red in an stock price evaluation report for CDP, that they only earned an average of 6,10 Euro per Witcher 2 unit sold, put will probably earn 8,60 Euro per Witcher 3 unit sold. Didn't know developers earn so little, will definately buy the expansion pack from GOG, so they get the full amoutn.
