CD Projekt RED recently unveiled a ten-minute behind-the-scenes video detailing the creation of the first The Witcher 4 trailer. A key highlight for fans? The significantly improved appearance of Ciri.
The new model showcases subtle yet impactful adjustments, addressing earlier criticism regarding her design. Following the initial reveal, many players felt Ciri looked unrecognizable. This updated version, however, appears much more faithful to her original portrayal, likely benefiting from improved lighting and corrections for fisheye lens distortion.
