In the same year that the first Witcher title was released, the Assassin’s Creed franchise launched. Although the games have had different paths, both are now quite successful. One fan has taken to combining the two in a very unique way by creating a “Witcher’s Creed” piece of artwork with Ciri from The Witcher as the centerpiece.

The artwork by Aleksandra Skiba was uploaded recently on Twitter. It shows Ciri donning a new outfit, one that would make her a perfect fit in the Assassin’s Creed games. Although a Hidden Blade isn’t prevalent and she is using a Silver Sword that is from The Witcher, she has the hooded cloak that has become an iconic look for Assassin’s Creed.
There is little doubt that video game fans love a good crossover, as this is why it has become such a successful addition to games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Injustice, Fortnite, etc. And fans love to create artwork with the idea as well, as recently an artist merged The Witcher with The Lord of The Rings. The comment section of the Aleksandra Skiba artwork is filled with praise, as the piece feels like a perfect blend of the two series.
Ciri is a central character of The Witcher 3, and someone who could possibly be the main playable character in a future game in the series, which is something many are hoping for. She is a complex character, but one that is strong, brave, and determined. She would make an excellent assassin in the Assassin’s Creed franchise as well, but a crossover likely isn’t happening any time soon. Crazier things have happened, though, as Nintendo has worked with Sega and Microsoft, and even The Witcher protagonist Geralt is in SoulCalibur 6. Still, it is fun to imagine Ciri skydiving off of an incredibly high building into a pile of hay.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is available on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
