CD Projekt has officially revealed The Witcher 4, the newest entry in its epic fantasy RPG series, and the first cinematic trailer shows new protagonist Ciri intervening as a village maiden is sent off to sacrifice. Geralt's adopted daughter and a familiar face to fans of the series, Ciri was at the heart of this game even back when CDPR "were doing Wild Hunt" and, per game director Sebastian Kalemba, "it just felt natural to us and we believe that Ciri deserves it."
PCG's Evan Lahti sat down with Kalemba and executive producer Gosia Mitręga after the reveal, and Ciri herself was one of the big topics: And particularly the fact that, given her relative youth, she's a whole new window into the Witcher-verse.
