Recently announced at The Game Awards, The Witcher 4will see Ciri starring as the series new protagonist in a story that will kick off a new trilogy. And unlike Geralt, shes going to be making her own Witcher codex.Speaking in an interview with IGN, game director Sebastian Kalemba spoke about how Ciri, who is in the beginning of her career as a Witcher, is going to feel different as a protagonist than her mentor and adoptive father, Geralt of Rivia.I love this grit in her, he said. Shes almost obsessed with the way she lives. There are some moments where you have to go with your heart instead of always going with the calculated calls. And this is what I love in Ciri. Shes less calculating, following her heart, her passion, her gut feel.Shes about to form her own codex on her own terms, he added. The way she actually deals with the monsters, the way she deals with quests, the adventures, its her own unique way.We want to let players try to define her, Kalemba went on. Shes about to form her own codex on her own terms. The way she actually deals with the monsters, the way she deals with quests, the adventures, its her own unique way.Much like pastWitchertitles, however, thoughThe Witcher 4sprotagonist will be a defined personality and her own character, players will obviously be able to shape her and change her story through their actions. Kalemba saysThe Witcher 4will afford players greater control than before: We want to put player agency at the center.Player agency wont be limited to just choice-based storytelling either. According to Kalemba,The Witcher 4will also for greater flexibility from a gameplay perspective.Were giving] more tools for players disposal, to be able to not only play and go with the consequences narratively, but also gameplay-wise, he said. We want to give players more opportunities to be able to feel that they define their experience.The director went on to draw comparisons with past CDPR titles, stating thatThe Witcher 4will feature greater gameplay variety than its predecessor, instead delivering a more expansive experience along the lives ofCyberpunk 2077.I believe the gameplay [in Cyberpunk 2077] was more varied [than that in The Witcher 3] and it allowed more freedom when it comes to creating character builds and being able to experience encounters in your own way, Kalemba said. This is something we definitely want to bring as a lesson [to The Witcher 4]. We want to improve on [The Witcher 3s] gameplay but also we want to improve the alignment of the way you will be able to explore the world.Kalemba has also confirmed thatThe Witcher 4will maintain continuity with allWitcher 3endings, and that the game will also feature Geralt, even if he isnt returning as the protagonist.The Witcher 4entered full production earlier this year.

After a YouTube ad leaked the release window, Hangar 13 showcased Mafia: The Old Country during The Game Awards with some cinematics and gameplay. The clear elephant in the room is Grand Theft Auto 6, which launches in Fall 2025 and is the latest in a series that Mafia has invited comparisons to since the first game.However, when speaking to IGN in a new interview, game director Alex Cox and Hangar 13 president Nick Baynes clarified that theyre different titles. Baynes described The Old Country as comparable to Mafia 1 and 2 instead of Mafia 3.I think the way that we would describe Mafia 1 and 2, and I think a lot of fans would, is its a linear adventure thats set in a world around you that you can go off the beaten path and explore, but really the games taking you down that path of the story. So I think if you use Mafia 1 or 2 as touch points of what its like, thats certainly closer than Mafia 3.And yes, that means its not quite an open-world title, at least not in the strictest sense, per Cox. Baynes added, The way I describe it is youre not going to be playing Mafia: The Old Country and going off and doing endless side quests and doing activities in the world.We want players to go through and experience a story, but set in this beautiful world. And if you are going along a path and want to go over here and explore, in many cases, you can do that because the world exists around you. But were encouraging you to go through the story.One of the things I love about these games is people tend to complete them because they want to find out what happens. And again, this is a trend with this game as well. We want people to go through and experience the whole story.It wont say the game is purely linear since it sounds too tight or that its open-world which is too broad, hence the comparison to the first two Mafia games. Open-world is a very loaded term, and its a conversation we have had many times regarding, Should we use this word or not? And the answer is kind of yes and no. I hope that helps you!Mafia: The Old Country is out in Summer 2025 for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. As a prequel set in 1900s Sicily, it focuses on Enzo Favara, an indentured laborer who joins the Don Torrisi family for a better life. Of course, that means committing more than a few crimes. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
