CD Projekt Confirms They Recasted Ciri For The Witcher 4

The cat’s out of the bag—The Witcher 4 is officially in full swing, and it’s bringing some big changes, including a new voice for Ciri. CD Projekt dropped the game’s first teaser trailer on Thursday, confirming Ciri as the main character. However, eagle-eared fans quickly noticed something different: her voice.

Speculation turned into confirmation as CD Projekt revealed to TheGamer that Ciara Berkeley is stepping into the role of Ciri, replacing the original voice actor, Jo Wyatt.

“Ciara Berkeley was cast as Ciri for The Witcher IV Cinematic Reveal Trailer,” the studio stated.

“She’s a talented actress who blew us away with her enthusiasm and vocal performance. We believe she’s captured Ciri’s essence in a way that’s both faithful and fresh for fans.”

This announcement comes hot on the heels of last month’s update from game director Sebastian Kalemba, who confirmed that The Witcher 4 (codenamed Project Polaris) has entered full-scale production. In a post on X, Kalemba shared his excitement for the upcoming saga, saying,

“With new challenges just around the corner, it’s the talented and hard-working people who make me believe we can together make the upcoming Witcher Saga a remarkable experience. No stopping now!”

Fans can look forward to exploring a new chapter in the Witcher saga with Ciri front and centre—and with a fresh voice leading the charge, the next-gen journey might feel even more invigorating. Stay tuned, Witcher enthusiasts, because things are about to get legendary.
