Game News The Witcher: A new school of witchers formalized by CD Projekt?
It’s been two days since CD Projekt Red formalized the development of a new The Witcher game, which will mark the start of a whole new saga. The developers didn’t give any details, but made the announcement by accompanying it with a specific image.
By officially announcing the development of a The Witcher game, CD Projekt validates the many rumors that have been circulating for almost two years. However, the studio has been very clear, it will be a new sagaand not a The Witcher 4 in the sense that this new production would directly follow The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt.
Clever the Lynx!
The announcement is also intended to indicate developers that many positions were open, and that it was possible to join the studio in Poland or telecommuting. On the side of the players, there is unfortunately little to put in their mouths, if not this famous image, featuring a witcher medallion covered in snow, with the mention “a new saga begins”. In the absence of information on the universe, the characters, the game mechanics and the release date, it is on this medallion that attention has focused players.
Cat School has been mentioned, but the shape does not match the one seen in the games. Ultimately, the public identified the medallion as that of a lynx and, bingo, that was it. This was first confirmed on Twitter by Marcin Momotgeneral manager of the community, then once more validated at Eurogamer by Robert Malinowski, Director of Communications :
I can confirm that the medallion is, in fact, fashioned following a lynx.
A school born from the imagination of fans?
Problem, this school does not exist in the books or in the games. It would therefore be an original creation for the purposes of this new saga, even if a mention of the Lynx School was found in a fan fiction written by Witcher190 and SMiki55. In this fiction, which CD Projekt Red does not mention as a source of inspiration, the magician Keira Metz and the witcher Lambert have teamed up with members of the École du Chat to rebuild the structure and breathe new life into it. This should fuel many theories, until CD Projekt tells us more regarding this new game.
