The Witcher IV Trailer shown at The Game Awards
CD PROJEKT RED proudly unveiled a first look at The Witcher IV — the first game in the new Witcher saga — at The Game Awards 2024 in Los Angeles with a cinematic trailer.
At this years The Game Awards, CD PROJEKT RED got the chance to show off a trailer for The Witcher IV the studios first title using Unreal Engine 5.
The 6 minute trailer rendered in Unreal Engine 5 and an as yet unannouced RTX GPU introduces us to Ciri.
“We're kicking off a brand-new Witcher saga, this time with Ciri as the heart of the story!” said Sebastian Kalemba, Game Director. “It feels so good to finally be able to say those words — for the longest time we knew that we wanted Ciri to be the protagonist of The Witcher IV; it just felt natural to us and we believe that Ciri deserves it. In this game we want to explore what it means to truly become a witcher by following Ciri on her Path. This trailer is a taste of both that, and just how dark and grounded the world of The Witcher can be.”
The Witcher IV is an upcoming single-player open-world role-playing game from CD PROJEKT RED and the next mainline entry in The Witcher series of games, following the critically acclaimed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
