CD Projekt RED recently unveiled a captivating ten-minute behind-the-scenes video, giving fans an exclusive look at the creation of the first trailer for The Witcher 4. Among the most talked-about elements was the updated depiction of Ciri, which has garnered significant attention and praise from the community. This latest iteration of the character features subtle yet impactful changes, addressing previous criticisms about her design and bringing her closer to the beloved original depiction.
Following the initial announcement of The Witcher 4, fans voiced concerns over Ciri's appearance, noting that she seemed unrecognizable. The new model, showcased in the recent video, appears to have benefited from enhanced lighting and corrections for fisheye lens distortion, resulting in a more faithful representation of the character. This shift has been well-received, with many fans expressing satisfaction with Ciri's "natural" and familiar look.
