The Witcher 4 rumored story, setting, and characters
The Witcher video games (and the Netflix collection) are based mostly on the Witcher novels from creator Andrzej Sapkowski. CD Projekt’s first trilogy targeted on Geralt’s journey, and plenty of are questioning the place the story may go in The Witcher 4 and past, or if it should adapt any components of any of the Witcher books. We do not have the solutions to any of these questions.
One of many important items of hypothesis across the new Witcher sport is what that medallion seen within the teaser artwork is. Some imagine it represents the College of the Cat. CD Projekt itself later confirmed it is a lynx, although the narrative implications of this are unclear.
Ciri from The Witcher 3 wears this medallion, although she formally skilled on the College of the Wolf. Nonetheless, there are some who imagine Ciri would possibly tackle a bigger function within the subsequent sport, or maybe be the principle playable character. That is still to be seen, however CD Projekt Crimson beforehand teased that it desires to inform extra Ciri-centric tales.
In 2020, CD Projekt author Jakub Szamałek was requested by VG247 if the studio had thought-about making Ciri the principle character of a brand new Witcher sport. Szamałek replied, “Attention-grabbing query. Would you prefer to play a sport with Ciri as a lead character?”
“I remorse we did not get to discover Ciri’s previous a bit extra,” he defined of Ciri’s story in The Witcher 3. “She’s such an amazingly wealthy and sophisticated character. Resulting from apparent reasons–well, she’s just about gone for two-thirds of the game–she did not get fairly as a lot display time as we writers would have preferred. However hey, possibly it is one thing we’ll get to get again to sooner or later.”
Some individuals initially thought the medallion proven within the teaser artwork was the College of the Cat medallion. The medallion is hidden partially by snow, and a few components are obscured, prompting numerous debate and dialogue about what all of it would possibly imply.
Then there may be the query of whether or not or not Geralt would possibly seem. Equally, we do not know.
