Witcher 4 lacks Geralt but he stars in new comic

Jan 25, 2024 10:53 AM

The Witcher's Geralt of Rivia may not be confirmed for the next Witcher game, but fans can look forward to a new comic miniseries sequel titled 'The Witcher: Corvo Bianco.' Set after 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' and the 'Blood and Wine' expansion, Geralt is expected to enjoy a simpler life with either Yennefer or Triss, depending on the player's choices. Despite aiming for a peaceful retirement, Geralt faces new challenges as he's drawn back into the complications of his past. The Dark Horse Comics series is spearheaded by Bartosz Sztybor with art from Corrado Mastantuono and is set to release on May 8. This publication serves as an epilogue to the beloved character's story and teases potential vampire-like adversaries reminiscent of those in 'Blood and Wine.'

What can fans of The Witcher expect from the new comic miniseries 'The Witcher: Corvo Bianco'?

Fans can anticipate a continuation of Geralt's story post-retirement, leading a simpler life that's interrupted by past conflicts. Detailed artwork and a fresh narrative by the Dark Horse Comics team will enchant fans when the miniseries releases on May 8.

'The Witcher' series has gained massive popularity not only through the original novels by Andrzej Sapkowski but also via the critically acclaimed game series developed by CD Projekt Red. 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt', in particular, received universal praise for its vast open-world, deep narrative, and the player's impact on the story's outcomes. The 'Blood and Wine' expansion further enriched the game with new content and a fitting conclusion for Geralt's tale. As one of the most beloved characters in video game history, any extension of Geralt's story, such as this upcoming comic miniseries, is met with excitement and high expectations from the fan community.
