Now we know that this is definitely the case as, in a new statement given to gaming blog The Gamer , developer CD Projekt Red confirmed that Irish actor “Ciara Berkeley was cast as Ciri for The Witcher 4 Cinematic Reveal Trailer.”

“Ciara is a talented actress who impressed us with her enthusiasm and vocal acting skills,” the statement continues, “and in this trailer we believe she truly brought Ciri to life in a way that is both faithful to the character and exciting for fans of the series.”
Although it’s unclear from that statement, the website claims that a CD Projekt Red representative went on to confirm that Berkeley will be portraying the character in the full game.
Ciri will be the protagonist of The Witcher 4
We also know that, as a younger and less experienced witcher than previous protagonist Geralt, players will have more freedom to shape her character than before. There is no official release window yet, nor are there any confirmed platforms at this time which might suggest that release is quite a ways off yet.
