Hissrich also expressed his thoughts on the upcoming Witcher spin-off: “This is my hardest secret to keep. I’ve always wanted to delve deeper into the myths and lore of the continent, and going forward fans will get the chance to discover all that’s new with Declan de Barra in the prequel series, THE WITCHER: BLOOD ORIGIN, which will feature elves, enemies, an ending and more…”
