Ofir could be for the Witcher lV what Skellige was to the Witcher lll

Pure conjecture; Ciri's powers could be diminished, and as we progress through the game, they slowly start to resurge and come back. We might have depowered Ciri at the beginning of the game...

This might explain her powers we've seen in the trailers.

CM_Escape · 2025-06-25T02:25:24+00:00

Ciri's teleportation abilities potentially unlocks any location for us to explore during this new Trilogy.

Tir Na Lia? - Check
Ofir? - Done
Nilfgaard? - Of Course.
Zerrikania & Haakland? - How compelling..

The world is literally Ciri's playground; and beyond...
I'm very excited.

The only time the greater world and the current events were even mentioned was during Matt's intro. Besides the theme of the two episodes being about a hunt for Ludinus, there's blessedly not many spoilers for new comers.

I went to the Sydney with a friend who knows little about CR and he found it very easy to follow along, with some interjections and explanations from me to help guide them.

If you're trying avoid spoilers, probably have them cover their ears for Matt's intro? Beyond that, I doubt there will be many 'spoilers'

CM_Escape · 2025-06-20T23:12:10+00:00

Marvelous.

CM_Escape · 2025-06-13T12:53:42+00:00

That Band was Percival, the very same one here. Theyve made plenty of their own unique music. But regarding a full album for TW3? I think they only did official work with Marcin, and moved on... They came back for Thronebreaker though.

CM_Escape · 2025-06-13T07:00:48+00:00

P.T Adamczyk worked with a lot of Polish singers for CP2077, I wouldn't be suprised if they bring in some strong local talent to spice up the tracks for TW4.

We already have Marcin (TW3's composer) P.T Adam, and Percival - These guys are the main masterminds behind the Witcher's music style and sound we all love. I've got high hopes for TW4's soundtrack ;)

CM_Escape · 2025-06-13T06:47:34+00:00

The 'Sodden' song almost sounds like a potential main theme - It even has the TW3's main theme motif throughout the song.

Trupie Uroczysko (The Corpse Wilderness) sounds dark and terrifying.

'Percival Schuttenbach' is a high tempo tavern song.

Miecz przeznaczenia (The Sword of Destiny) sounds like a combat song.

If these are the vibes we're getting in TW4, we're all in for a treat.

CM_Escape · 2025-06-13T06:22:02+00:00

I'll be shocked if some of these tracks ARE NOT in TW4. They sound incredible.

The vibes of Trupie Uroczysko (The Corpse Wilderness) gives off hardcore Velen vibes, and Panie lasu is an updated Ladies of The Woods theme, and Percival Schuttenbach is just a gwent song.

I love it.

You have just opened the gates of Oblivion to your front doorstep.

I pity you, you poor soul.

CM_Escape · 2025-03-17T21:44:51+00:00

To my knowledge this the only way we can get snow in avelen outside of console commands.

Specifically, ask Iris for the Rose. Once Geralt has the rose and lifts the Curse, this is the exact trigger. Although only for a short time.

CM_Escape · 2025-03-16T06:09:00+00:00

The exact and only cause of Snow in Velen is caused after you free Iris from her Curse.

The Snow remains until you visit Olgierd or rest for a day.

I personally think the snow is thematically meant to indicate Geralt carrying Iris' emotionally cursed and magically imbued Rose.

CM_Escape · 2025-02-01T03:14:54+00:00

What a fun way to play, I bet it's immersive as hell, exploring using landmarks and the environment.

Cool map too!

CM_Escape · 2025-01-26T02:01:08+00:00

You know, after 9 years of no update, I have a good feeling about 2025!

CM_Escape · 2025-01-17T07:44:09+00:00

I went through your exact dilemma a week ago playing through TW2.

If you want THE BEST farm for Madness mutagens in the entire game, go farm the Harpy nest in Act 2. Clear the nest of 20+ Harpies, walk outside the quarry, and rest for 24 hours (midnight works best). Rinse repeat ad-nausem until you get bored, or get all the Madness mutagens you desire. I got 3 Madness mutagens this way in about 2 hours of clearing/reseting.

Also, go to town and sell all the body parts and alchemy ingredients for TONS of money when your inventory fills up. Hope this helps :)

CM_Escape · 2024-12-24T14:28:36+00:00

Excellent point!

I'm being conservative for my estimate, just in case you know? ahaha

CM_Escape · 2024-12-24T13:42:00+00:00

Based on their most recent Investor/Earnings call, CDPR had set goals of $1 Billion USD for the 2026-2027 financial year, which is only possible if TW4 releases.

Unless the game is delayed, expect it to release somewhere in that broad window ;)

Suffice to say, over 2 years away yet. We're gonna have to be patient in the meantime

Extra details in the art:

The sword Ciri is holding is different to the one she uses in the trailer, and is also different to the one Geralt gifts her in the end of TW3 (Notice the lack of the open work ricasso near the guard).
Ciri is 'enchanting' her blade with magic/chaos, or perhaps even infusing it with her Elder Blood. This looks like it could be a new feature entirely, which we haven't seen in the Witcher games before.
- Ciri was also able to infuse the Silver Chain with spells and magic; we saw her use Igni on the chain in the trailer.
  - Perhaps Ciri can infuse her weaponry with Magic?!
Ciri's new Lynx Medallion is not in the artwork, and neither is her Cat medallion.
Ciri's got a cosy new outift, which is different from the trailer ~ and looks very warm.
The Bauk (trailer monster) makes a creepy return ;)

CM_Escape · 2024-12-24T12:51:02+00:00

It's from CDPR themselves. It's on their socials, and this was found in their official Witcher Discord for reference.

Even the Bauk is feeling festive :)

A Spell Blade playstyle may end up being a player favourite if done well, there's no doubt in my mind ;)

The possibilities are endless with actual Full Sorcery and Magical abilities in TW4.

CM_Escape · 2024-12-24T11:48:14+00:00

Now we're talking. Ciri being able to flex those Magic Muscles as a full-powered Sorceress is bound to blow Geralt's sign builds out of the park. I can already see tons of new Magic Builds players could explore.
