Cyberpunk 2077: CD Projekt Red Addresses Gameplay Concerns in The Witcher 3

The Witcher 3, while critically acclaimed, wasn't without its flaws. Many fans felt the combat system fell short.

In a recent interview, Witcher 4's game director, Sebastian Kalemba, acknowledged this, highlighting gameplay and monster hunting as areas needing significant upgrades. He stated plainly, "We want to improve the gameplay and the monster hunting experience."

Kalemba emphasized that the Witcher 4 trailer should showcase the intensity and impact of monster battles, focusing on improved choreography and emotional weight.

A substantial combat overhaul is anticipated for The Witcher 4. Reassuringly, CD Projekt Red recognizes the shortcomings of previous Witcher games' combat and is actively addressing them. These improvements are likely to carry over into future installments, especially considering Ciri's role as the protagonist of the new trilogy.

Interestingly, developers also plan to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. In Witcher 3, the "Ashen Marriage" quest, originally set in Novigrad, saw Geralt aiding Triss and Castello with wedding preparations, including monster extermination, procuring alcohol, and choosing a gift.
