Where to Stream The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep (and How It Fits Into The Witcher Timeline)

Geralt of Rivia's voice, familiar to Witcher game fans, returns in Netflix's latest animated adventure, Sirens of the Deep. This animated film, a spin-off set during Season 1 of the Netflix series, features Doug Cockle reprising his iconic role.

IGN's Jarrod Jones notes in his review that while the pairing of Cockle's Geralt and Joey Batey's Jaskier holds appeal, its charm might be limited to dedicated fans. Regardless, it offers a worthwhile diversion until The Witcher 4 arrives.

Where to Stream The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep

The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep streams exclusively on Netflix. Netflix subscriptions start at $7.99/month (after recent price increases) and currently do not offer a free trial.

What is The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep About?

Based on Andrzej Sapkowski's short story "A Little Sacrifice," the film unfolds between episodes 5 and 6 of Netflix's Season 1. The official synopsis reads: "Hired to investigate attacks on a coastal village, mutant monster hunter Geralt uncovers an ancient conflict between humans and sea people, threatening inter-kingdom war. With allies at his side, he must resolve the mystery before hostilities escalate."

The Broader Witcher Universe

The Witcher franchise originated with Sapkowski's book series, depicting Geralt's adventures in a Slavic-mythology-inspired world. CD Projekt Red's video game adaptations, particularly The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, achieved widespread acclaim, generating spin-offs and collaborations (including a real-life Gwent card game). The Witcher 4, featuring a new protagonist, was announced at the 2024 Game Awards.

Netflix launched its live-action series in 2019, with three seasons starring Henry Cavill. Season 4, starring Liam Hemsworth as Geralt, is slated for an April release.
