CD Projekt Red confirms Ciri will take center stage in The Witcher 4, a decision driven by both 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, honed across books and games, offer rich opportunities for innovative storytelling.
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 established Geralt. Discussions regarding this protagonist shift, dating back nearly a decade, underscore CD Projekt Red's long-term vision for Ciri as Geralt's heir. Kalemba promises a new saga of epic proportions, fueled by Ciri's unique challenges and perspectives.
The decision has received the endorsement 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.
