The Witcher 4 was finally revealed with a Game Awards trailer in 2024, showing that the next game in the series will see Ciri taking a starring role. Other than that, there’s still plenty we don’t know about The Witcher 4, but one of the game’s leads did reveal that a Witcher 3 quest played an important part in its development.
As it turns out, a quest added to The Witcher 3 in 2022 is also an important milestone for its sequel. As part of a patch that added ray tracing, a photo mode, and other content updates, The Witcher 3 also got a brand-new quest called “In the Eternal Fire’s Shadow,” which rewarded players with a new armor set modeled after Geralt’s costume in The Witcher TV series. Developer CD Projekt Red also used it as a chance to switch gears from Cyberpunk 2077 back into Witcher mode, it was recently revealed.
