After The Witcher 3 and its equally spectacular DLC wrapped up Geralt’s saga, we’ve all been patiently ready with bated breath over how Geralt will function in The Witcher 4, which kicks off a brand new period. All of us knew the enduring monster slayer would return someway, however Geralt’s voice actor, Doug Cockle, has off-handedly confirmed his function within the subsequent entry.
“The Witcher 4 has been introduced however I can’t say something about it,” Cockle claims in an interview with Fall Harm, earlier than occurring to substantiate what many suspected in regards to the RPG sequel: “Geralt shall be a part of the sport, we simply don’t know the way a lot, and the sport received’t concentrate on Geralt. So it’s not about him this time.”
Nearly strolling it again, Cockle then notes “We don’t know who it’s about. I’m excited to seek out out. I wish to know! I’ve not seen any script but—I imply, I couldn’t inform you if I did. That is the factor, so I might be mendacity by means of my enamel. However I’m not. Or am I?”
Whereas all of us suspected Geralt would return in The Witcher 4, because it’s been closely teased by Cockle and CDPR previously, we nonetheless don’t know how. Earlier than the discharge of The Witcher 3, the developer defined that though it was the top of Geralt’s story, he may reappear sooner or later, which Geralt’s voice actor has seemingly confirmed.
Given the ending(s) of The Witcher 3 and its DLC, it’s anticipated that Geralt will tackle the function of a mentor for Ciri, who would presumably step as much as change into the principle character within the subsequent open-world game outing. Nevertheless, it’s equally believable that CD Projekt Pink throws a curveball to spice issues up. In any case, having Ciri take up the Witcher’s blade would make sure selections canon, and Ciri was deliberately overpowered throughout her playable sections in The Witcher 3.
Although Cockle doesn’t develop on his function within the sport, we’re simply glad he will get to return so we will hear his gruff voice for one more spherical. Sadly, it’s not implausible that Cockle is mendacity when he says he hasn’t seen a script but. The Witcher 4 release date continues to be a great distance out because the production phase only began in earnest this year.
Fingers crossed it is going to be a worthy successor to one of many best PC games on the market, although. Within the meantime, why not spice issues up with the best Witcher 3 mods in your subsequent playthrough?
