“Maybe [Ciri’s story is] something we’ll get to get back to in the future,” says CD Projekt Red

Who’s up for The Witcher four with Ciri as a lead character? I’m.

“Have you ever considered continuing The Witcher series with Ciri as a lead?”

That’s a query I posed to principal author Jakub Szamałek throughout a latest Q&A with The Witcher Three developer CD Projekt Red.

“Interesting question,” he replied, teasingly. “Would you like to play a game with Ciri as a lead character?”

Yes, mate. Yes I’d.

Elsewhere in our chat, Szamałek spoke about his largest remorse, wanting again at growth on The Witcher 3.

“I regret we didn’t get to explore Ciri’s past a bit more,” he defined. “She’s such an amazingly wealthy and sophisticated character.

“Due to apparent causes – properly, she’s just about gone for 2 thirds of the game – she didn’t get fairly as a lot display screen time as we writers would have appreciated. But hey, perhaps it’s one thing we’ll get to get again to sooner or later.”

Personally, I’d love a Witcher game the place you hop between worlds as Ciri. You may discover bizarre dimensions and actually go wild with the storytelling. Perhaps you may even mess around with the timelines, letting us expertise extra of Ciri’s previous whereas additionally displaying us what occurs in her future.

Perhaps a prequel would make extra sense, nevertheless, since her place in that world is wildly completely different relying on what choices you select over the course of The Witcher 3, and I can’t see CD Projekt Red selecting a canon when that story is so private to many.

What would you prefer to see from a brand new Witcher game? Let us know within the feedback. Keep an eye fixed on the location tomorrow for plenty of Witcher Three content material, to have a good time the game’s fifth anniversary, together with our full interview.
