The Witcher 4: Will Yennefer Return? Uncertainty Surrounds Key Character
Interest in *The Witcher 4* is building, but questions remain about the fate of key characters. While Ciri is expected to take the lead, the roles of Geralt and Yennefer are still unclear. Denise Gough, the voice actress behind Yennefer, has stated she doesn’t know if she’ll be involved in the new game.
# Denise Gough Unsure About Yennefer’s Role in *The Witcher 4*
In a recent interview, Denise Gough told Eurogamer that she’s unaware of any plans for her to reprise her role as Yennefer in *The Witcher 4*. “I don’t know. I know nothing,” she said, adding that she hadn’t been contacted about the project. Gough also revealed that she was unfamiliar with *The Witcher* universe before being cast, admitting she didn’t even recognize Yennefer’s name initially.
This uncertainty has sparked concern among *Witcher* fans. However, a similar situation occurred with Doug Cockle, the voice of Geralt, who initially stated he wouldn’t be involved before ultimately confirming his return. This has left fans hoping for a similar outcome for Yennefer.
# Yennefer’s Possible Role in Ciri’s Story
CD Projekt Red has previously stated that *The Witcher 4* will build upon the “good ending” of *The Witcher 3*, focusing on Ciri’s story. Given Yennefer’s significant role in mentoring Ciri, fans are hoping to see the character appear, even in a smaller capacity. Many players are especially eager to see a scene featuring both Geralt and Yennefer together.
# CD Projekt Red Remains Silent on Character Casting
For now, CD Projekt Red is keeping quiet about the character roster. This silence is likely due to the game still being in the early stages of development. Despite the uncertainty, fans remain hopeful that Yennefer, a beloved and essential character in the *Witcher* universe, will make an appearance in the new game, expected to release around 2027.
