In advance: When we talk about the end of The Witcher 3, it is clear to us that there is not one, but dozens of conceivable story endings. But ultimately the comics will simply make certain decisions and thereby set a path. For example this: Geralt chose Yennefer.
What are the comics about? Geralt and Yennefer have retreated to the winery known from The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine, the eponymous Corva Bianco. Although both long for peace and quiet, they are not able to finally sit back and enjoy a glass of wine.
As part of the collaboration, a western in the world of The Witcher
have arisen. The series is written by, Bartosz Sztybor, the author of the plot White Crow
described as a homage to the creator of the Witcher universe Andrzej Sapkowski, the well-known western actor Clint Eastwood and director Sergio Leone (Play me the Song of Death).
Silver sword and magic instead of a revolver? Exactly what adventure awaits Geralt and his friends has not yet been revealed. But in the official announcement, Bartosz Sztybor teases a duel between Yennefer and another magician or a witcher attack by Geralt on a stagecoach.
