The highly anticipated release of The Witcher 4 has been a topic of discussion among fans of the series. After the conclusion of Geralt’s saga in The Witcher 3 and its DLC, many have wondered how the iconic monster slayer would fit into the next installment. Now, the voice actor behind Geralt, Doug Cockle, has finally confirmed his involvement in the game.
In an interview with Fall Damage, Cockle revealed, “The Witcher 4 has been announced but I can’t say anything about it. Geralt will be part of the game, we just don’t know how much, and the game won’t focus on Geralt. So it’s not about him this time.”
While Cockle’s statement confirms Geralt’s presence in The Witcher 4, it raises questions about the extent of his role. Cockle himself admitted, “We don’t know who it’s about. I’m excited to find out. I want to know!” This uncertainty leaves room for speculation and excitement among fans.
One prevailing theory is that Geralt may assume the role of a mentor to Ciri, the powerful and enigmatic character from The Witcher series. This would position Ciri as the main character in the game, allowing for new storylines and gameplay dynamics. However, CD Projekt Red, the game’s developer, may also surprise players with unexpected twists and turns.
While details about Cockle’s involvement in The Witcher 4 remain scarce, fans can at least rejoice in the fact that they will once again hear his iconic gruff voice. However, it’s worth noting that Cockle’s claim of not having seen a script may not necessarily be true. The production phase of The Witcher 4 is still underway, and the release date is yet to be announced.
As fans eagerly await the highly anticipated sequel, it is hoped that The Witcher 4 will live up to the legacy of its predecessors. In the meantime, players can enhance their experiences by exploring various mods available for The Witcher 3.
