The Witcher 4 is — of course — bringing back Gwent. And with Geralt also returning, fans think we'll be going up against the reigning champion himself at some point in the new game, as Ciri follows in his footsteps to become the Continent's best player.
And also the best monster slayer, I guess. Gwent is more important.
"I don't think anyone will be disappointed," executive producer Gosia Mitręga told Easy Allies when asked about Gwent returning.
"It's a part of the experience, so absolutely," game director Sebastian Kalemba added. "We also love Gwent, we cannot imagine [sic]".
Speculation has run rampant for nearly a decade about what role Geralt will play in The Witcher 4, if any, and that discussion has been kicked up again with the confirmation that we'll be playing as Ciri going forward.
But we already have a rough idea of what Geralt's been up to in the years since we last saw him. Spoilers: lapping it up in retirement.
"He is for sure eating some suppers with Henrietta, while slaying monsters from time to time," Kalemba told Skill Up, adding that Geralt will invite us to his mansion to bridge the gap between games.
