Check out this trailer for Witcher 4 running on Unreal Engine 5.6. Play as Ciri, a professional monster slayer; a Witcher. The Witcher 4 is releasing at a la...
(Note: I don’t read anything from games I play, I like to keep the suspense) I’d love for this to be set after Ciri going into the Avalac’h’s portal. That’s considered a bad ending for TW3 but we don’t exactly know what happened and if she would eventually make it back.
Yes, she always goes through the portal. It’s what happens after that varies. She either becomes a Witcher (looks like that will be the canon ending considering Witcher 4), becomes an empress or she doesn’t come back. In the latter ending it’s implied (but left up for debate) that she dies. It’s also very heavily implied that Geralt dies in that one.
Huh, I don’t really get the trailer. Is that guy from the previous games? Or is he just a random monster victim. What’s the significance of salt? Why would the coin have her fooled?

Ciri enters the portal in all endings.
I don’t remember anymore. Even the one that she becomes a princess? But you know, I’m talking the one that she doesn’t come back.

I expect this will follow the same pattern as their previous games -
It’s weird seeing it happen again and again.
Remember, folks - 2+ years after launch you’ll be able to purchase the original game + the half-dozen DLCs for a nickel.
Can’t wait to see how bad this launch is. I love watching YouTube videos about big budget games that turn out horrible

Sorry if I’m ignorant to common lore.
Most of the people that appear in Witcher trailers are just random victims or passer-bys.
This video was split into 2, in the other half we learn that the merchant told ciri that he was transporting salt. And that was a chest full of coins.
So just a stupid IGN decision, not your fault nor some lore that you’re unaware of.
Oh, thank you! I’ll have to find the 2nd half. It did seem rather short on its own for a trailer!
