The trailer forThe Witcher 4showcases Ciri several years after the conclusion of the old game , The Witcher 3 , slaying monsters as a Witcher just like Geralt before her . It ’s clear that the biz will keep an eye on this unseasoned Witcher during a new journeying , entail thatcertain events from the last biz must now be set in gemstone .
The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunthas several dozen possible variations on its termination , including the many different choices made throughout the secret plan for various side quests . For age , the fan stem has wondered which of these endings will be consider canon if the serial move forward with another game . And now , thanks to this drone , the canyon terminate ofThe Witcher 3is clearer than ever .
Ciri Is Not The Empress, Nor Is She Dead
Eliminating Two Thirds Of the Possible Endings Right Off The Bat
The most authoritative revelation in determining the third plot ’s canonical closing is , of course , thatCiri has become a Witcher . This only happens in one third of the endings ofThe Witcher 3 , since in the others , Ciri end up as either the Empress of Nilfgaardor all in . While it ’s technically possible that Ciri left Nilfgaard after becoming the Empress to prosecute the animation of a Witcher , it ’s incredibly unlikely , and more likely that this game follows theWitcher 3endingswhere Ciri takes up the Witcher chimneypiece .
At the close of The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt , there ’s a smattering of character that get individual epilog , showing the fate of the Four Kingdoms .
In that ending , Ciri and Geralt bullshit her death in club to convince her forefather , the current Saturnia pavonia of Nilfgaard , that she is gone , so he will kibosh looking for her . That gives her the freedom to select her own path and go into training as a Witcher . Geralt even gets her a powerful new silver sword , which she can be seen using in thenewWitcher 4trailer .
The Nilfgaard-Temeria Alliance Likely Ended The War
The Ending Which Makes The Most Sense Thematically
The other master factor ofThe Witcher 3 ’s ending revolve around Geralt ’s love life life , which is not touched on in the Modern drone , and the war between Nilfgaard and the northerly kingdoms . The latter will probably weigh significantly more in the raw game , sincein the decades follow the war , who won and who lost will have major implications across the Continent . Depending on Geralt ’s activeness , Redania may have beaten Nilfgaard with either Radovid or Dijkstra at the helm , or Nilfgaard may have win while allowing Temeria to retain its sovereignty .
Whether or not Nilfgaard still exists , and its emperor still lives , is reasonably significant to Ciri ’s character , and the game will need to pick a lane for its main story . In all likelihood , based both on the brief coup d’oeil of northern society in the unexampled house trailer and the theme of theWitcherfranchise , Nilfgaard and Temeria seem to have made an alliance . Not only would this keep Nilfgaard on as a potential threat to the booster inThe Witcher 4 , but it would also attach up some loose ends for role in the previous games , and adjust best with what Geralt would have done in the third game .
