The Witcher 4 marks a significant transition in the series, centering on Ciri as the new protagonist while maintaining the franchise's dark fantasy elements. A recent behind-the-scenes video reveals how the game's trailer was created, emphasizing its role as a narrative tone setter rather than a direct representation of in-game events. Narrative director Philipp Weber compares two characters in the trailer, Ciri and a village girl named Mioni, who reflect differing attitudes toward destiny. This foundational approach could influence story elements in the game's final version.
The traditions of Stromford mean that Mioni has to be sacrificed. That's her destiny, and she's accepted that destiny. Ciri is known as someone who does not accept destiny, she fights back at it.
The trailer is an adaptation of the story they want to tell in the game, meaning the events seen here may not be exactly what we see in The Witcher 4, but it sets the tone.
