CDPR Reimagines Ciri's Appearance in New The Witcher 4 Footage

by Isaac Mar 05,2025

CD Projekt Red recently unveiled a ten-minute behind-the-scenes look at the making of the first The Witcher 4 trailer. A key highlight for fans? The significantly improved portrayal of Ciri.

The new model showcases subtle but impactful refinements, addressing earlier criticism. The initial reveal of Ciri sparked controversy, with many players finding her appearance drastically different from previous iterations. This updated version, however, appears more faithful to her original design, likely thanks to improved lighting and corrections for fisheye lens distortion.

Fan reaction remains mixed. Some celebrate the changes as a direct response to community feedback, while others suggest the improvements are primarily due to technical adjustments or enhanced lighting. Online discussions are vibrant, with many expressing satisfaction at Ciri's return to a more familiar and "natural" look.
