Witcher 3 sequel lives on in Corvo Bianco comic

Jan 24, 2024 1:15 PM

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt fans will be thrilled to learn that the legendary Geralt of Rivia is returning, not in a video game, but in a comic book sequel. The upcoming Dark Horse comic, The Witcher: Corvo Bianco, will continue the story following the events of The Witcher 3's Blood and Wine expansion, diving back into Geralt's life after he retired to the vineyard of Corvo Bianco. Much to fans’ delight, the comic will rekindle Geralt's adventures as he leaves behind his tranquil life for the fraught path of a Witcher once again—his peaceful retirement at Corvo Bianco alongside Yennefer proving to be short-lived. The first issue of this five-part series is set to release on May 8, 2024, promising to add more depth and narrative to the Witcher franchise. Readers can expect a tale of how the simplicity of wine and leisure never fully washes away the troubles of Geralt's past.

Will The Witcher: Corvo Bianco comic be a continuation of The Witcher 3's story?

Yes, The Witcher: Corvo Bianco comic is a direct sequel to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and its Blood and Wine expansion, continuing the narrative of Geralt's life post-retirement.

For those unfamiliar, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an award-winning action RPG developed by CD Projekt Red. Following the story of Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter for hire, the game is widely acclaimed for its deep narrative, expansive open-world, and complex characters. The title’s Blood and Wine expansion is the second and final expansion for the game, where players explore the vibrant region of Toussaint. As the comic directly follows this storyline, readers and gamers alike can expect an authentic extension of the game's lore.
