The Witcher Season 4 Plot
The official synopsis for the show reads: “As monarchs, mages, and beasts of the Continent compete to capture her, Geralt takes Ciri of Cintra into hiding, determined to protect his newly reunited family against those who threaten to destroy it,” it teased.
Following season two’s chaotic finale, the next run of episodes will focus primarily on Ciri’s destiny as a world-destroyer, or hopefully a savior if we ever want to see season four come to light. There are plenty of forces gathering to manipulate the princess’s power for themselves, including her father, but at least Ciri now has Geralt and Yennefer by her side. As of now, we don’t have any certain storyline for the fourth season since the third season is yet to be aired.
