Developer CD Projekt RED was taken to new heights with the launch of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in 2015, however, as the number of the title suggests there were also previous entries in the series.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, a critically acclaimed RPG has been supported with two expansions and it’s even had board games. What’s more, the franchise has been adapted into multiple Netflix series'. We’ve even seen the franchise crossover into the world of comic books and if the latter is more your cup of tea, then you’re in for a treat.

The debut issue, The Witcher: Wild Animals #1 tells the story of when: “Evil wears many faces, as does justice. From land to sea, Geralt finds that where man and creature coexist, there is an unspoken rule—one where the skills of a witcher go beyond killing monsters.”
As for The Witcher: Wild Animals #2, it continues the story when: “Geralt is taken deep into the forest to meet the mysterious leader of the animal clan. Their creed: all life is equal. But on the island walks a murderer—killing but one kind. Is it a thirst for blood that drives this killer or is it an eye for an eye?”
The Witcher: Wild Animals is available digitally via the official Dark Horse website as well as in physical form at your favourite comic book retailer. The first two issues are available now, with the third and fourth issues arriving this December.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is out now on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
