CIRI TAMBIÉN PROTAGONIZARÁ THE WITCHER 3: WILD HUNT

CD Projekt RED anuncia a bombo y platillos que The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt contará con dos protagonistas principales jugables. El primero como bien sabéis es Geralt de Rivia, protagonista de todas las entregas hasta ahora. El segundo será un personaje de género femenino singular llamada Ciri. No obstante no lancemos las campanas al vuelo ya que Ciri, aún siendo un personaje crucial para la trama principal del juego, solamente será jugable en unos momentos concretos del juego. Nos gustaría saber cuales son esos momentos tan cruciales pero tendremos que esperar a saber más detalles proximamente o en su defecto el próximo mes de Mayo. Qué larga se hará la espera, podrían haberla llamado Geraldine.

Today CD Projekt RED revealed details about previously-hinted-at playable character. We now know who she is: Ciri, the ashen-haired girl from an ancient prophecy. A descendant in a long-lost Elven-blood lineage, Ciri plays an important role in the Witcher lore — a powerful, living weapon capable of both healing and destroying the world she inhabits.

As Ciri is pursued by the Wild Hunt, a cavalcade of ghastly riders capable of unspeakable destruction, as well as the mighty Empire of Nilfgaard, it’s down to Geralt to explore The Witcher 3’s vast, open world to find her before anyone else does.

With such a deep and developed plot, CD Projekt RED decided that introducing another character and telling parts of the story from her perspective would greatly benefit the overall experience. Adding Ciri as a playable character unlocks quite a few narrative possibilities for the team, though while Ciri is a major character, she is not a playable character in the same way as Geralt — the game is still about him, his story and how you, as the player, choose to face the choices and encounters in front of you.

Ciri boasts exceptional swordfighting abilities, as well as several unique skills that will gradually unlock as you play. She’s fast and agile, she can blink (as seen in the Elder Blood trailer), but — most importantly — there’s something dormant in her, a mythical power, but we’ll say more about that in the future.
