The Witcher just went where no monster hunter has gone before—outer space. Thanks to a wild crossover between CD Projekt RED and the European Space Agency, Polish astronaut Uznański-Wiśniewski hauled two Witcher medallions—the iconic Wolf (Geralt) and Lynx (Ciri)—to the International Space Station in July. No, he didn’t boot up The Witcher 3 in zero-G, but he did snap pics of the symbols floating in orbit like it’s no big deal.
CDPR’s execs are understandably losing their minds, calling it a surreal honor and a symbol of Polish creativity literally reaching the stars. Uznański-Wiśniewski echoed the hype, saying The Witcher is how people across the globe know Poland—and that watching the medallions drift in space felt like watching imagination itself come alive. Honestly? He’s not wrong. Fantasy just hit escape velocity.
