The Witcher 4 Will Feature Geralt of Rivia
The Witcher 4 will feature Geralt of Rivia, even if the main role is Ciri.
Geralt Will be Back with The Witcher 4
CD Projekt Red confirmed Ciri as The Witcher 4’s protagonist in a six-minute-long cinematic trailer shown at The Game Awards 2024. While the trailer is dedicated to showing Ciri coming into her own as a monster slayer and champion of justice, the first minute throws players a curve ball with an opening narration of a father who’s proud of his daughter embracing her destiny. The narrator’s identity quickly becomes ambiguous, however, thanks to the appearance of another father daughter duo, leaving fans to wonder whether Geralt will even appear in the game.
Game director Sebastian Kalemba has confirmed that players will still see Geralt, though he wouldn’t explain how large a role the Witcher series’ original protagonist will play. In an interview with PC Gamer, Kalemba indicated that not just The Witcher 4, but an entire second planned trilogy, will focus on Ciri, though Geralt will still make himself known in one way or another. “I can’t tell you more, but I think the promise is enough,” he noted in a reassuring statement to fans worried about the future of Geralt in the Witcher franchise.
With this relieving truth revealed, fans can eagerly wait for upcoming Witcher game to witness once again the adventure of Ciri along with other famous Witcher characters.
