Reigns: The Witcher arrives with a touch of Tinder and decisions that shape Geralt

New title adapts Reigns to The Witcher universe with swipe for decisions, four acceptance metrics, and rhythmic combat; arrives on Steam and GOG.

On February 25th, the independent French studio Nerial will launch Reigns: The Witcher on the Steam and GOG stores, in partnership with CD Projekt Red.

The production adapts the Reigns series to The Witcher universe, promising an experience that respects the original narrative and characters, including encounters with Geralt, Yennefer, Triss, and Regis.

Decision mechanics that shape destiny

The game uses a decision system inspired by the swipe format, measuring four acceptance metrics: among humans, among non-humans, among mages, and the status of monster hunter. Choices influence Geralt's popularity among distinct factions and his path in the world of the monster slayer.

Combat with a touch of rhythm and portability

Combat adopts a rhythmic mini-game where the player dodges attacks and strikes the opponent, elevating the dynamic compared to previous titles in the Reigns franchise. In tests, the system seems especially suited for portable devices like the Steam Deck, with compatibility verification from Valve.

Narrative expanded by French mythology

The story is enriched with several mythologies and tragedies that help create new adventures in The Witcher world. Among the elements, there are references to French mythology — including the tarasque — conveyed through ballads narrated by Dandelion.

What to expect

With Reigns: The Witcher, Nerial intends to expand the lore of The Witcher universe while maintaining the essence of the gameplay of the Reigns series itself. The promise is to offer a new adventure for Geralt's fans and an innovative experience for followers of the franchise.
