The character will remain humble and try to solve his own issues

Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, the lead quest designer at CD Projekt RED working on The Witcher 3, says that the plot of the upcoming game will be very ambitious, but at the same time will respect the trends seen in the first two titles in the series.

He tells VG247 that, “The overarching plot will have a huge impact on the state of world as a whole, but we’re not aiming at making Geralt savior of universe – this would be out of his character. As always, Geralt will get dragged into big events that he would otherwise stay out of, and influence them in his own way.”

When The Witcher 3 was revealed, CD Projekt RED stated that it was aiming for an open-world structure for its new adventure, with Geralt able to take on a number of challenges and deal with many characters.

The game will use an entirely new engine and will be launched during 2014.
