Ciri Poised to Lead Witcher 4

Feb 22,25

CD Projekt Red confirms Ciri will be the protagonist of The Witcher 4, a decision driven by narrative progression and the potential inherent in the character. Executive producer Malgorzata Mitrega explains that Geralt's story arc concluded in The Witcher 3, making Ciri the logical successor. Her established depth and complexity in both the books and previous games offer exciting creative avenues for the developers.

Director Sebastian Kalemba highlights Ciri's younger age as a key factor, allowing for greater player agency in shaping her character arc – a freedom unavailable with the more established Geralt. The shift, discussed internally for nearly a decade, underscores CD Projekt Red's long-term vision for Ciri as Geralt's successor. Kalemba further promises new challenges and perspectives that will forge an equally compelling narrative.

The decision has the backing of Geralt's voice actor, Doug Cockle, who acknowledges Ciri's considerable potential as a lead character. While Geralt will feature in The Witcher 4, his role will be secondary, ensuring a fresh narrative focus on Ciri's journey.
