Media: The Witcher 4 from CD Projekt will be a prequel starring Ciri

The head of CD Projekt RED Adam Kiciński has already hinted that the new Witcher will be released, but without Geralt in the main

roles. Fans decided that the developers were preparing their own hero, written from scratch, but a Gamepressure source says something different.

What is known

If you believe the anonymous author, then the main character, or ratherthe heroine will be Ciri, Geralt's adopted daughter. The studio believes that The Witcher games should have a “distinctive protagonist,” and the white-haired girl is perfect for this role. Although Ciri did not pass the test of herbs, she studied magic from an early age, and in Witcher 3: Wild Hunt she demonstrated the skills of fast movement and knowledge in the field of hunting monsters.

The plot of The Witcher 4 about Ciri will becomea prequel telling about events before "Wild Hunt". Perhaps the scriptwriters will send players to other dimensions, since the girl can open portals. For example, in The Witcher 3, Ciri hinted that she had visited the world of Cyberpunk 2077. In the books, the girl also often looked into other dimensions, so the developers have something to talk about.

The source did not give a release date.In an interview with a Polish publication, the head of CD Projekt said that a small team within the studio is already working on a new game based on the Witcher universe. Full development will begin after the release of Cyberpunk 2077, since now all efforts are devoted to this project. Perhaps gamers will see The Witcher 4 about Ciri already at the height of the ninth generation of consoles.
