8 Reasons The Witcher 3 Will Be One Of 2015's Best Games

7. There Are Multiple Playable Characters

There's not much better feeling than playing as the magically powered, dual-sword wielding Geralt, but a lot of RPG fans like to be able to take control of more than one character in their games. It was recently revealed that one new controllable character will be Ciri, an exceptional swordfighter with unlockable, unique abilities. Although this won't exactly be Dragon Age level of multiple character control and customisation, it still adds variety to the gameplay. While the Witcher series has previously only given you the option of selecting Geralt as the main protagonist, taking control of other characters from time to time is a welcome change of narrative, hopefully allowing players to alter the outcome of certain events depending on their actions.
