Characters Other Than Geralt and Ciri That Could Appear in Witcher 4
Time skips in a story are always tricky to navigate, and franchises have to take special care not to deviate the overarching plot far off course from what fans are used to or run the risk of alienating or dropping some audience-favorite characters altogether. Skipping through years in a story is more common in anime like One Piece and Boruto, although mainline gaming series such as Fallout have attempted the mechanism to great success in the past. CD Projekt Red is employing the dynamic in The Witcher 4 as the developer seeks to kickstart a new era for The Witcher franchise, setting the upcoming title’s events 100 years after its predecessor. A century is a long time even in fantasy worlds, and gamers wonder what characters other than Geralt and Ciri could appear in the next installment.
