The Witcher saga continues! Nearly a decade after the critically acclaimed Witcher 3, a first look at The Witcher 4 has arrived, introducing Ciri as the protagonist.
As Geralt's adopted daughter, Ciri steps into the spotlight as his trilogy concludes. The trailer depicts Ciri intervening in a village's disturbing ritualistic sacrifice, revealing a far more complex situation than initially apparent.
While no official release date is set, considering the development times of previous titles (Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077), a three to four-year timeframe seems plausible, placing a potential release several years in the future.
Platform specifics remain unannounced, but given the anticipated timeline, a current-generation console focus (PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC) is likely. A Switch release seems improbable, though a potential Switch 2 version might be considered.
Gameplay details are scarce, but the CGI trailer hints at familiar elements: potions, Signs, and combat. A new addition may be Ciri's chain, used for both combat and magic.
Voice actor Doug Cockle confirmed Geralt's involvement, though not as the central focus. His presence in the trailer suggests a possible mentor role.
