Vi ved allerede at CD Projekt RED betragter The Witcher 4 som et godt sted for nye fans at begive sig ind i det ekspansive univers, og vi forventede da også at Geralt of Rivia ville få en pause. Men spørger du Doug Cockle, der har lagt stemme til Geralt i spillene, så vil han virkelig ikke være i fokus.
Han er blevet spurgt af IGN om hvad han tror spillet handler om, og dertil har han følgende bud:
"The best theory I've heard, because it does make sense, is the theory that they'll focus on Ciri in her adventures in some way, shape, or form. Because spoiler alert, in the books, Ciri travels between dimensions and between worlds. It's one of her powers, and she does a little bit of that in the game. So I think it would be a really exciting thing for Witcher 4 to focus on Ciri's adventures in some way. They kind of set her up for it in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt because you can play as Ciri in certain episodes of the game. So it just feels like if they don't do that, then I know what The Witcher 5's going to be about, because it just makes sense. But I have no idea. I have no idea. I'm excited to find out."
Det eneste konkrete vi ved er at en Lynx-medalje er på det eneste stykke concept art vi har set, og dertil siger Cockle:
"Some people have seen the image of the medallion that has been put out by CD Projekt that looks like a Lynx. They've said maybe they're going back in time to look at some of the origins of the Witcher schools and stuff like that, and maybe they'll focus on a Witcher from the Lynx School or something. I'm just saying what other people have said."
