Between the games and theNetflix show, The Witcher has become a hugely popular series over the last decade or so, spurring many people to go back and read the books they’re based on, and with the latest in the series having just released, one The Witcher 4 dev is already diving in.
When you’re adapting an existing series into a game, it’s understandably important to make sure you’re up to date on all the lore, so it’s not exactly surprising to see Michał Nowakowski, CEO ofCD Projekt Red, already getting started with the latest release in The Witcher book series, Rodroże kruków (meaning ‘Crossroads of Ravens’, for my fellow non-Polish speakers).
In a Tweet about the book, Nowakoswki writes “Today is the day of celebration for everyone who loves The Witcher. Andrzej Sapkowski’s new book in the series has just launched”, before noting, “This one goes back to Geralt’s youth. Time to do some reading!”
With The Witcher 4’s development nowwell underway, now is probably the perfect time to dive into the books if you haven’t already. Or alternatively, you could just load upThe Witcher 3for another playthrough, which is probably what I’ll end up doing.
You’ll find The Witcher 3 along with plenty of other masterpieces on ourbest RPGslist.
