The Witcher 4 Reveal Trailer Shows Ciri And Mioni Are "Mirrors Of Each Other"
A couple of months after the unveiling, CD Projekt Red has decided to pull the curtains back to showcase how The Witcher 4's debut trailer came together in partnership with Platige Image. The developer discusses that a major theme was showcasing how Ciri is somewhat of a mirror to a Stromford girl named Mioni.
The behind-the-scenes video for The Witcher 4 (seen below and posted on YouTube) begins with director Sebastian Kalemba stating "that this is the moment to tell the story with Ciri." From there, the RPG's narrative director Philipp Weber opens up about how The Witcher 4's first trailer--which debuted at The Game Awards in December--follows how two women approach destiny differently.
"We were thinking in the story that Mioni and Ciri are a little bit mirrors of each other," Weber said. "The traditions of Stromford essentially mean that Mioni has to be sacrificed.
