“The are no gods here. Only monsters.” Ciri’s declaration at the climax of CDPR’s cinematic trailer underlines that very little changes in the world of
The Witcher
, regardless of who bears the titular moniker. In place of Geralt, Ciri’s the star here, now a fully fledged Witcher who’s inherited her mentor’s suite of spells and potions. In this teaser, her skills are displayed in a short story of dread and superstition: as villagers prepare to sacrifice a young girl to a local demon, Ciri slays the fiend, but the peasants kill the girl anyway in fear of divine retribution. As ever in this dark fantasy world, monsters come in all guises.
