CD Projekt Red: CIRI en tant que protagoniste du Witcher 4 est «organique et logique»

CD Projekt Red a confirmé que le CIRI sera le principal protagoniste du Witcher 4 , une décision tirée à la fois par la progression narrative et le potentiel inhérent au personnage. Le producteur exécutif Malgorzata Mitrega explique que l'arc de l'histoire de Geralt s'est terminé dans le Witcher 3 , laissant Ciri, un personnage profondément développé dans les livres et les jeux, en tant que successeur naturel. Sa complexité et sa profondeur offrent des possibilités créatives passionnantes pour les développeurs.

La réalisatrice Sebastian Kalemba met en évidence l'âge du plus jeune de Ciri comme facteur clé, permettant une plus grande agence de joueurs dans la façonnage de son arc de personnage - une liberté indisponible avec le Geralt établi. Les discussions sur le déplacement du protagoniste ont commencé il y a près d'une décennie, soulignant la vision à long terme de CD Projekt Red à CIRI en tant qu'héritier de Geralt. Kalemba souligne en outre que les nouveaux défis de CIRI forgent un récit tout aussi convaincant.

Doug Cockle, l'acteur de la voix de Geralt, soutient le changement, reconnaissant le vaste potentiel de Ciri en tant que personnage principal. Alors que Geralt figurera dans The Witcher 4 , son rôle sera secondaire, assurant une nouvelle perspective narrative.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
