9. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition
Most Popular RPGs on PC, According to the Steam Leak
The Witcher 2 is the game that put CD Projekt RED on the map. The studio took all the lessons it learned from the first Witcher game and crafted a sublime RPG experience that challenges the likes of BioWare’s and Bethesda’s greats for supremacy. The game is considered a Polish national treasure, and in 2011, the Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk gave then-President Obama a copy of the game as a gift. That would be as if the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe gave President Trump a complete collection of the works of Akira Kurosawa during his 2017 visit to Japan. You know a game is good when even politicians recognize its brilliance.
While The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition took a while to break one million sales, its popularity has snowballed. According to the Steam leak, the game has 4,585,616 players on Steam. Not bad given the first Witcher game was relatively obscure.
