We know that The Witcher 4 has been announced, and further information has been revealed regarding the main role in the game. While Geralt of Rivia will return, credible figures have said that he will not be the main character, which is shocking for most of the fans.
Doug Cockle, the voice behind The Witcher himself, recently stated that Geralt won’t be there as the lead character. As he said: “We know that Geralt will be part of the game, we just don’t know how much. The game won’t focus on Geralt, so it’s not about him this time. We don’t know who it’s about, I’m excited to find out!“.
If that’s the case, who would be the main character in The Witcher 4, or at least which one of the remaining characters feels qualified to replace Geralt? The decision to sideline Geralt as the main protagonist is quite weird, and we’re starting to think that the next main role could very well be fulfilled by some of the female cast. Could it be maybe Ciri or Yennefer?
