The Witcher saga continues! Nearly a decade after the critically acclaimed Witcher 3, CD Projekt Red has unveiled the first trailer for The Witcher 4, starring Ciri as the protagonist.
Picking up where Geralt's story leaves off, the trailer showcases Ciri intervening in a village's disturbing ritualistic sacrifice. The situation quickly escalates, hinting at a darker, more complex narrative than initially anticipated.
While an official release date remains elusive, considering the development timelines of Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, a three-to-four-year window seems plausible. Given the current stage of production, a release within the next few years is likely.
Platform specifics are yet to be announced, but based on projected timelines, a current-gen-only release (PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC) is expected. A Switch port, unlike Witcher 3, appears unlikely, though a potential Switch 2 release remains a possibility.
The trailer offers glimpses of familiar gameplay mechanics, including potions, Signs, and combat. A new addition might be Ciri's chain, used for both combat and magical abilities.
Geralt's involvement has been confirmed, although his role remains unclear. Voice actor Doug Cockle's previous comments suggest a mentoring role, adding another layer of intrigue.
